600$ cash with 2500$ agreed crash value, I keep the car.
Thanks, MM

600$, This is about the cost of transport and running the car.
Are things really that bad?

Just a data point but that's roughly Chump rental price in a front running car where you get ~4+ hours at the wheel. Yes, it's Apples: Oranges but that may be where some of the rental market has moved.

Thats funny, as I run this car in Chump also. Just remove the glass and Hatch lid. The market has moved very hard to Chump.

The lack of rules has already hurt Chump tho . IMHO.

Agreed... lots of folks playing there now that used to be in IT (myself included). Also agree that the rule changes aren't helping things but, apparently, not hurting them too badly either.
