I assume the hail damage was cosmetic and you would just live with it. They were pricing them about 25% off MSRP, but I assume you lose the incentives like upfitting allowance, cashback, 0.9% financing that you would get on a new van. They were technically used vehicles since they were titled when the insurance company paid off the dealer whose lot they were sitting on when the hail hit. I also suspect the Carfacts history would affect resale value, since it would show up as an insurance salvage vehicle, people think accident or flood damage.

I doubt repairs were 30k per vehicle. Might get a nice price reduction.

Trying to decide if the dual sliding doors option is brilliant or stupid. A dealer near me bought up a bunch of 2016 Transits with hail damage, I decided to pass on that. I think that means a salvage title.
