Filed under: Car Buying , Government/Legal In what might turn out to be one of the biggest games of “he said, she said,” in the history of the world, Maritz Research, an automotive market research company, is claiming that the government’s Cash for Clunkers program actually boosted auto sales by much more than previously thought. Maritz is crediting the program with 765,000 new vehicle sales, higher than the 677,000 claimed by the government, and much, much higher than the 125,000 sales that Edmunds.com famously quoted . In fact, it’s more than double the Department of Transportation’s own estimate of 346,000 sales

Filed under: Classics , Marketing/Advertising , Videos , Mercury Classic Mercury Tracer - Click above to watch the video after the break “It’s peppy,” the salesman said as an enticement to buy… It’s not that the Mazda 323/ Ford Laser-based first-generation Tracer was a bad car, but the Escort apparently called stronger for our own hard-earned dollar, so we drove home in a brand new 1989 wagon. Ford apparently figured this out with the second-generation Tracer, which was joined with the Escort as part of a comprehensive redesign in the early 1990s.
