I'd buy a rebuilt vehicle if I planned to own it forever. The fact of the matter is, you can't sell them. Simple as that. I once called in about a couple of M3's I saw on Craigslist, due to their price my first question was "Do these have a clear title". His answer? "No, they are both salvage vehicle, this one had blah blah damage, this one blah blah blah."

I said thanks, but i'm not interested. He then went off about how that's what everyone says, went into a big explanation of how minor the damage was. Blah blah blah.

My reply "I agree, they are probably great cars. But I don't want to have to go through what your going through trying to sell the thing". That was the end of the conversation. ha

The right vehicle, with the right history/damage will be fine. But don't expect to get any money in return in a resale situation.

It's true that you'll have to price it lower than a non-rebuilt to sell, but then you bought it for a lower price as well so I'm not really sure why people worry about that.

It's not like everyone goes on forums to ask questions. They literally want to see another person's perspective on what they would do if they were put into the same situation.

I realize that, but you're assuming to know what his father-in-law would want. If his FIL thought rebuilts are unsafe for his family he wouldn't be offering to sell them one.
