On: What Happens to Donated Cars?

> First, the car is worth whatever someone will pay for it and not a cent more.

Right, if I'd sold it via Craigslist I could've gotten double the money I would've gotten at auction, you seem to have missed my point :)

So not only would I have ended up with more cash in my pocket, I would've ended up with more cash in my pocket to pay taxes.

This is why donating a car is dumb.
