How many of those cars will be totaled due to flooding, sent to auction, get "cleaned up" - INCLUDING a "washed" salvage title in some easy to title state like Alabama, to then, months later to rise phoenix-like (Sorry!) resplendent on used car lots touting a "bargain price & excellent condition"***
Almost a heartwarming American tradition, like a replay of the "Katrina" cars not that long ago. THOSE pots showed up for sale all over the country, after a period of time.
***excellent condition, that is, only in the continent of Atlantis
