Would you be open to _________

My son's Mustang was trashed by the freak hail storm that decimated our town four years ago. He kept driving it because it was paid off. It was beat to shit and some of the dents were starting to rust due to the damage to the paint. He decided he would drive it until costs for mechanical repairs became equal to or more then his payments had been. It finally stopped running completely leaving him stranded. It was a total POS at that point.

I suggested donating it as there is a place around here that will come get your heap and give you a gift card as well as a donation receipt for your taxes. They use any money they make off the car to help at risk kids stay in school.

He had the car towed to his house and did some research eventually finding a place that came and got it from in front of his house and gave him $400.00. He was happy to see it go as he had already been pulled over on his way to get fast food one evening because the police were convinced that a hunk of junk like that could only be driven by a criminal. They even searched his car. What they found were a couple Winnie the Pooh stuffed toys that his stepdaughter had left in there before he stopped letting her ride with him because of all the broken glass inside.
