Nah. Don't ask why or how, but I'm getting more from the insurance
because they found it then if it didn't turn up.

I didn't get any estimates, but that's the way it seems. I could get an
estimate, but to get the car anywhere it has to be towed (which limits
where I can go).

What's the difference in the titles? The car isn't getting totaled out
by the insurance, so I'm not quite sure what you mean by a clean title
vs. a salvage title.

Yeah, I am. Just not sure what I'm going to do with it. I'm just trying
to find the best way to let it go and still make some $$ to put towards
the next Jeep of some time (w/ a SFA).

I'm sure I could get a replacement off lease. That end I'm not worried
about yet, what I'm worried about is what I'm going to do with the Jeep

Better yet, just put a wall around Newark and keep everyone there in,
