Question for you car people
I have a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee with just over 90,000 miles on it. The plan is to drive it another year and then get something new.
On Sunday, I was involved in a parking lot collision that resulted in a dent in the back liftgate (it's a 4 on a scale of 1-10) and a crack to the bumper and a scratch on the taillight. The liftgate still works.
I went to a Dent Doctor place and they told me it's too big to pull out. The body shop estimates $1600 to replace the liftgate and $2500 to fix the whole mess.
So... what do I do? Do I fix it? Do I submit a claim to insurance ($500 deductable)? Do I drive it as it is, knowing the car isn't going to be worth shit in a year anyway?
I actually (God help me) trust your opinions, so lay it on me.
