He called them and they don't have the money from the Gov't to cover the checks. There some franchised multi brand dealerships going under due to the money that they don't have to pay the manufacturer for the cars they sold. It was all a "knee jerk" reaction, let's see what this does to car sales for the next 6-12 months... I bet the dealers/manufacturers will feel a big squeeze before it's all over...

Great points from all so far...
