Is there anything in the rules that prevents me from requesting a friend or relative to buy a new car with CARS program and then selling it to me? This seems like a win for everyone. Old car scrapped, new car bought. I and my friend can then split the difference and the friend can go ahead and buy a better used (or new) vehicle if needed. Specially useful if he wants a lower MPG vehicle that won’t work with CARS but I want a high MPG vehicle.
