Car Talk Vehicle Donation Program Car Donation Review

We hope there is some part of her that will live on in another vehicle and help another family like she has served us.

We bought this car early in 2021 when our daughter was starting her senior year of high school. We bought it for $1,000 and then put another $1,500 in repairs and tires into it. We lovingly named her Emmy after her emerald green color and we love that she was as old as our first son born in 1998. She’s been loved the last 18 months we’ve had her and are so sad to part ways with her now. We hope there is some part of her that will live on in another vehicle and help another family like she has served us.

Thank You, Elizabeth!
