Here’s Why This Destroyed Cadillac Escalade Was Rebuilt (Not A Good Reason)

1. I am pretty sure the person that bought this car after it was partially repaired possibly just did more work than the previous person that bought it

2. scary

3. It's the American dream to scam people out of what the work hard for ,, RIP America

4. I don't think it should be allowed because I bet half make it back on the road and most people will never know how bad the cars were

5. The Yukon XL that once was damaged looked like it was fully repaired so the person that bought it from Copart probably took it to a shop that took the dent out and they probably bought every individual part

6. From 1 of the pictures of that specific Escalade, it looked fairly normal after an attempt to repair it

7. This Escalade was partially repaired but it still needed a few more things done to it

8. it should be forbiden

9. I understand but the sellers are making peanuts because they have to put money into the parts and labor

10. Doctoring up a car like this is awful, someone new the the rebuilding scene could buy this and lose so much money or worse, jeopardize their family by driving them around in it

11. They didn't weld the roof

12. I think they used the jaws of life to get the people out.

13. The roof was probably taken off by firefighters

14. The roof isnt riped of it has been cut of by the firefigthers.

15. Easy, for export. Lot's of countries in south america and africa buy lots of salvage cars from the us. Cheap labour and 0 safety regulations to meet.

16. This actually makes sense for 3rd world countries where the safety of a severely damaged rebuilt is still better than some of the really old stuff that’s there. Not saying it’s my model just have seen it work for others exporting.

17. Lmao "severe accident like this one" was a training not a real accident

18. Unfortunately copart allows for these type of vehicles to be resold at their locations and that's why I try and stay away from purchasing from copart. There are other auctions out there!

19. The entire history of a salvage or other titled car needs to be kept intact and follow the vehicle including the photos from previous auctions and made available in advertisement for a vehicle as a condition of purchase and resale. Put and end to this shell game that plays with peoples lives and wallets. This whole I rebuilt it and nobody knows what it "used" to look like business is a large scale grift.

20. I need that to do a LS swap roll over make the best ones that 6.2 would be nice to have

21. I have watched a bunch of your videos over the last few months but I have to say you are off on your description of the condition of this vehicle. The roof is not crushed down(much). The roof was cut off then just laid back on top of the vehicle for storage/transport. When you describe how close it is to the seats that is why. They just used a quick cut saw to get it off at the scene so they could get better access to the victims. The secondary damage being bio hazard says they would have been bleeding quite a bit so they were hurt significantly. That is why you see the straight line across the roof was to get to them easier. We owned an auto wrecking yard for many years so I have looked at plenty of crashed vehicles.

22. People probably died in there. I dont want it.

23. I wouldn’t do it, people do these partial repairs because they are counting on people who don’t know any better to bid on a car and bid more because the damage doesn’t look too bad, at least until it’s purchased and the buyer starts seeing behind those wired on panels. It’s pretty much a scam.

    Also they doctored up that suv with certificate of destruction with the hopes an exporter would see it and bid more for it thinking the damage wasn’t too bad.

24. It should be illegal for copart to try make the car look good they should have to sell it the way it came in i feel like their tryin to hide the problems the car has to rip off people

25. So you're telling me that land cruiser had only 212 miles when it was crashed? Bet they were driving it back home from the dealership that was 3 hours away. That must have been painful.

26. Secondary damage :biohazard /chemical…. Sounds like insurance speak for parts of the previous owner are still in the car….😱🤮

27. I wonder if the Uber passengers are ok

28. The car seen better days

29. u hope they are ok….dude their clearly dead

30. 9k for a pile of metal? you can buy a nice 2000's land rover for that money

31. It said Biohazard someone died in it

32. TOO MANY HACKERS OUT THERE. SAD

33. I litterally got a Cadillac Escalade ad at the beginning of this video.

34. Craiglist-Car is slightly damaged, well maintained, driven by elderly.

35. This is similar to that Denali you looked at.., must be something with that body

36. The roof was most likely cut off by firefighters, if this was a rollover the hood would most likely be smashed on top. My opinion is that it was severely t-boned that they could not open the doors and just cut the roof off to get the passengers out.

37. I
    This business succeeds with psychology. Buyers think "wow, a $75,000 car for only $9,000! I can fix this up and drive a bargain!" Of course most of the time they're in deeper than they can handle, especially with today's complicated vehicles and government regulations. So it goes back for auction for someone else to buy…

38. 8:21 Some arab kid smashed that brand new car driving really carelessly

39. Wouldve been less work to just make it into a convertible 😂😂

40. Fuck YouTube commercials

41. I wonder where they get the donor car from. They have used loads of parts repairing them to a certain level. I wonder if they have used parts from stolen cars. To be honest I think the business is not worthy to sell them with salvage title unknown what the damage was.

42. Do a updated video of an Escalade like this.

43. I hate copart for this very reason. People purchase these not really knowing what they are getting into. They allow this behavior and they make it easy

44. They can be used to launder money as well. Using the car to buy and sell back an forth with an increasing price each time. Keeping the title for parts only and never really tilting the car for driving purposes. The money is then transferred to a central account, usually off-shore. The car is eventually abandoned or scrapped.

45. Stop trying to be like RICH REBUILD! It doesn’t work for you

46. Your so rite sam

47. yes

48. Florida cert of destruction means DMV will not register this vehicle for public roads.

49. Seems like straight fraud it should be illegal to doctor up a car like this.

50. It’s amazing how far people will go to make a buck. Flipping wrecks through multiple auctions. Then someone runs the car through a few states to get the title washed to make it clear again. Then some unsuspecting person buys it from a used car lot and pays for a rebuilt piece of crap with no warranty.
