There is always the danger that some of these salt water soaked autos will end up on the used car market. For a buyer of a used car research into its origins would be in order.

"320 Karmas, the luxury plug-in hybrid electric vehicle by Fisker Automotive."

What a break for them. Now they get full price from the insurance - something they wouldn't have achieved at the dealer.

I’ve owned flood cars in the past. Bought them knowing the history and paid accordingly.

one lasted 5 years. The other 5 months. The 5 month one still parted out nicely and paid for its self once parted and scrapped.

I currently own a flood boat. Runs like a top. Sank in the guys driveway last summer when Duluth MN flooded.

I still laugh. The title for the trailer is stamped “PRIOR SALVAGE-FLOOD”

Hell, it gets flooded every time I go fishing. Right up to the hitch.

If your not mechanically inclined RUN FOREST RUN! from flood cars.

Once they catch fire, they could keep a lot of people warm.

The great thing about electric cars is. . . nothing. We used petroleum cars for 100 years and will be using them in another hundred.

Karma (n.) - when a hoax known as global warming whips a once-in-a-100-years hurricane at a bunch of hoaxes called climate-saving electric cars.

This basically means that all these electric/hybrid car owners are going to be the first to go.

Big difference between “15,000 Electric Cars” (title) and “320 Karmas” (text).

Don’t facts matter to writers any more?
