Why F150s can be traded in for a new one that gets 1 mpg more?

Because if they made the rules more demanding on fuel efficiency an even larger percentage of the cars sold would be Hondas and Toyotas...

Can you explain why there are no worthy clunkers older than 25 years?

How the F would I know? Maybe people are collecting really old cars. Maybe it's a liberal conspiracy Jim...that's it...that'll probably sound better to you.

"Can you explain why there are no worthy clunkers older than 25 years? "

Aren't autos older than 25 years considered antiques?

en.wikipedia.org

"In the United States, an antique car is generally defined as a car over 25 years of age, this being the definition used by the Antique Automobile Club of America. However, the legal definition for the purpose of antique vehicle registration varies widely."
