Trashing Good Cars

Post by Lurch »

I have to ask myself if this is really a good idea or not. They are trashing good cars. Someone knows what's best for us, I hope.

Condition of the cars is unknown, from the looks of them..they're older (esp the Nissan pickup), the Crown Vickie looks to have some mileage and already had the rear end worked on, the 3rd car in the background looks like a big old wagon (which don't sell anymore).

The sign on the dumpster, it's a Toyota dealership, so these cars not being Toyotas were most likely trade ins, and he's probably had them in inventory for quite a while..not being able to offload 'em at an auction.

It's either dump 'em at some salvage yard for a few hundred bucks...or write them off as advertising and hope they generate some eyes and possible sales.

I am on a forum that is discussing this same thing. Some cars are being thrown away and it is a pity. Examples are one mint Syclone and one fair condition Typhoon. The Syclone is worth 10k easily in its condition and it went to cash for clunkers. As rare as those trucks are they should never see a scrap heap before there time.
