Hey all,

The wife and I are planning on acquiring a (wait for it...) minivan....

We need to thin the heard, and we have this old (1980) Volvo 240 that's been doing nothing for months now. Were thinking of donating it and taking the write-off this year. I was wondering if any of you have experience with this? Suggestions?

Thanks!

I also donated an old Volvo 245 to a local charity (before the rules on donations changed). Even with the new donation tax rules, it's a nice way to hopefully help some less fortunate people.

In the Chicago area, there is also a battered women's and children's shelter that was taking donated cars, fixing them to a reliable shape, and giving them so some of these people could get to work, etc.
