Yeah, no joke. I used to work auto parts and I am absolutely appalled at what this place does to vehicles. I was selling parts for 10 year old cars that I barely sold down south for 30 year old vehicles. I don’t know how salt is still in use.

EDIT: I was also gonna say, I have a built-in reason to visit Texas since my Ma is still there, so I could fly one way and come back in a car from down there. Alternatively, my FIL is contemplating starting a business buying cars from Copart and rehabbing them overseas where he resells them, so it’s possible I could score a wreck and make it good.
