Simple.  They will tell you you can go buy a vehicle just
like yours, for that price.   At  least this is the way it use to
work.     My argument is always,   "OK, you go get it,
change the title, plate it, inspect it, deliver it to my door.
I don't want your money"    I hate co./people how think
throwing money at  problems fix everything.
                                    good luck
