Question 1: Assume, for the sake of this survey, you are in the market to purchase a specific resale vehicle that typically sells for $20,000.00. Your venture into the market place leads you to two identical vehicles that ideally fit your needs. Both of them are comparable in Year, Make, Model, Equipment, Apparent Condition and Miles. 1) Both automobiles are available for $20,000.00. Vehicle "A" has No collision history and all original factory warranties will transfer to you. Vehicle "B" had incurred $5,000.00 worth of collision repairs per factory recommendations using new factory original (OEM) body parts. All original factory warranties will transfer to you. All other factors are equal! Would you be willing to pay the same price for both of these vehicles?
