M'lady,

It would also be a good idea to obtain the vehicle history on any used
vehicle you are considering.  If it has ever had a "salvage title," I
would advise against the purchase.  Salvage Titles are issued when a
vehicle has been totaled.  These totalled vehicles are then auctioned. 
Individuals and some companies then purchase them for very little, do
mechanical and/or body work and re-sell them.  They may have some
critical issues with the frame (most modern vehicles have uni-bodies,
etc.) and may not even be safe to drive.  Also, many title histories do
not transfer from one state to another so, for example, if a vehicle was
totaled and sold as salvage in Oklahoma, repaired, and then "moved" to
Texas, the Salvage Title may not show on the Texas Title History.

Another good idea is to find a trustworthy mechanic to evaluate any used
vehicle you are seriously considering.  It will cost; however, if it
saves you from purchasing a "lemon," it is money well spent.

YIS,

lemons than she likes to think about)

Good Morning Elfsea.
I am sorry for this Off Topic message but I have a situation that I am in
need of advice, leads, ideas.  As most of you know I was in an accident
in October that left my car (Snip!)
