[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely check out who you give it to. Last year we donated a 2002 Volvo S80 T6 that had impeccable maintenance on it--drove without any issues still. They supposedly couldn't sell it and gave us $500 for the deduction. A little hard to believe.[/quote] That does sound sort of dodgy. I donated a 98 mountaineer one time that had all sorts of new parts on it (new control arm, AC condenser, power steering pump...), but the alternator and charging system was totally shot and it was a difficult job replacing it. The passenger door also had a locking issue (meaning, it wouldn't open). The veterans organization said the same thing, but I wasn't surprised in that instance. I am pretty sure they parted out that truck and the parts live on in South America somewhere. The organization came and picked up the truck after I jumped it and drove out of my backyard onto the wrecker....[/quote]
