Just found out I won't get my $1950 credit thanks to AMT. I was made aware of this possibility a few months ago through this site and some articles, but I don't think anyone understood it when the credit was first announced or when they purchased their vehicle. I don't blame the dealers or manufacturers. I blame congress for creating a credit that the vast majority of consumers can't take. If it was done intentionally, it was a nice way of making it LOOK like the government was offering environmental incentives when in fact it was all for show. Regardless, it doesn't make me happy....though I am happy with my vehicle and my gas mileage.
