Hybrid Cars
I just walked into a Toyota Dealership and found out that the tax credit coming out in January is given only to the first 65K purchased. Is that correct? Anyone who knows the complexities can explain the details in a nutshell?

Update on Hybrids
Now it's clear; this year, a $2K deduction until Dec. 31. For next year, the deduction is reduced to $500.
The tax credit is for the quarter on which the first 60K cars sold by that manufacturer is. So if cars are sold out on Jan 1, then one can still get the credit until the end of March. After that, it decreases by 50% for 5 months, then 25%. The amount depends on the model. The Prius is $3,400. http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news0...ybrid_tax.html
