I LOVE living in Colorado!!!!!!!
Woohooooo! They updated the tax credit info today and finally included the '08 MMH and FEH. We get $3489!!!! Combine that with the federal credit and we should have a tax refund of $5689 relating to our MMH purchase! We cleaned up last year too with $4700 (combined) on the HCH. Who says it doesn't pay to be green?!?

OMG that is so weird. I looked today at about noon and the FYI notice was still dated 11/07 and the Escape wasn't there. Now it's there.
I wonder why they just show one credit and not one for FWD and another for 4WD as in other years.
Regardless, it's all good. For a middle class person like me with no other credits (i.e. no kids), $5000 ++ really takes the sting out of that $28200 purchase price I had to think so hard about last March.

Re: I LOVE living in Colorado!!!!!!!
In Colorado you cannot get a higher refund than your tax liability for that year. In 2005 I was entitled to $3200 from the State of Colorado, but only needed to "pay" $880 in taxes for 2005 since I was a college student at the time and only worked part time.
So I got all $880 back, and payed $0 in Colorado Tax that year.
The good news is, the balance, $2330 rolled over for the next year.
You can "carry over" this particular credit for up to 5 years.

Unlike the Fed program, it's the gift that keeps on giving. This will basically zero out my tax bill for both this year and almost all of next year.
I'm not sure, but this must be the most generous program in the US. We are fortunate.
