Proper Disposal of a Jalopy?

On my way home yesterday, I drove by a car dealership noticing a car… rather out of place. The car was skirted with a large, green dumpster! Finding it hard not to rubberneck, I drove by 3 times trying to understand the oddity.

So, what are your thoughts? An odd way/location to dispose of a jalopy? Some sort of marketing ploy to bring in customers (which worked on me)?

Update: A week or so later, I noticed the ‘Bring in your clunker’ sign, so it was, in fact, a marketing ploy… and a good one!
