Try 2006. These vehicles would be covered by insurance and the insurance company would get rid of them.

If any pre-delivery vehicle is involved in any kind of an accident then the vehicle must be "certified" scrap. Generally the salvage yard is required to cut the vehicle in two and prove the VIN has been destroyed - even if there is NO damage to the vehicle and only the transporter was in a minor accident. The real shame is when a trainload of new cars is involved in a minor incident and ALL the vehicles MUST be scrapped.
Too many PoS lawyers out there that would love to get a big settlement because the car or truck was "wrecked" before delivery.
