More than 500,000 cars are estimated to have been flooded during Harvey, and incredibly some of them may end up in an online ad or a car lot near you. At McCree’s Ford in Dickinson, more than 1,000 vehicles flooded. Still more customer cars, flooded in the service department, await their owner’s insurance company to come decide what’s next. It is the salvage and under- or uninsured vehicles that can often end up cleaned up and offered for sale several states away. Salvage cars are supposed to have titles that brand them clearly as such.
