The stimulus checks did. I had to buy a new car because mine went kaput right as they went out, which was the same time as people's tax refunds. Car prices went up at least two grand for the 5-8 year old used car market, across the board, compared to just the year before.
They are also pushing out the child tax credit as a series of stimulus payments, rather than during the normal tax refund season. I've already gotten one payment, and other is on the way, because I have kids.
