Again, RT is playing how wonderful this idea is and how it improves our lives. It is complete nonsense. How do I know? Well, my wife's father wants to take part in this program. He goes to all the dealers looking for an Avtovaz car he can afford with the trade in. They are all back order by months! If you trade in your car, you will have credit for a new car. The catch, the credit is valid for 2 weeks. So he can't even get a new car with this program. It also rids poorer families of the ability to buy a used car for under 1000$. This is a disastrous copy and paste program straight out of the USA.
