Personally we have a lo-miles nice vehicle with no plans to buy. But for those planning to buy- or forced to buy…OMG. And the car dealers smacking lips.
This will create a little more demand but on a world wide basis it is probably well under 1% more. Katrina probably caused more damages to cars than Ian.
