Almost got rid of the totalled Gen 1 (Edit: And it's sold and gone!)
I was going to sell it to the neighbor's boyfriend for $450, as he just bought a 2014 1LT to replace his buyback VW diesel. He really wanted my steel rims for the winter tires he is going to get, but then the Cruze wouldn't have any wheels, as I kept the aluminum wheels for the snows on my Gen 2. So I told him he had to buy the whole car, which he was fine with.
Well, he just backed out of the deal as there are already 10 junk cars at his house and he doesn't have room for more. He says his dad would flip if he brought home another car.
****.
The wife wants it off the lawn. I already got my insurance payout for it, so other than pulling the heated mirror and associated harness off and selling that in the marketplace for someone who wants to add a heated mirror, I'm done with it, and will probably just offload it to a local junkyard for whatever I can get.
How much are junkyards paying for "newer" cars these days? More than scrap prices, I hope?
