The market for anything 'used' has been insane, and without actually doing comparisons in KBB, Edmunds, NADA and the rest I'm not getting the stigma about V4Pes. Fleetwoods in general are holding as well as anything else their age - I think. IDK Grange at all, but I've had luck when my carrier (highbrow hoitie toitie State Farm) does their expected initial lo-ball total offer, by taking one of two approaches. If I really want the car, then whether my policy terms actually cover being made whole by repair, or, they see all the other policies they'll forfeit if they piss me off too much, then they'll relent and I get it repaired. Those occasions have ended up higher than the 'total' amount but also lower than what I demanded using comparable 'sales' that I could document online. On one occasion the repair was actually 70% of the way between their lo-ball and my calculated 'value'. The other approach, to accepting that the car be totaled, is using those same documented 'sales' as leverage against their lowball. It's important not to dilute the argument with any online 'for sale' amounts. And my carrier always paid extra for any performance / safety addons, more than likely again from just wanting not to jeopordize the cash cow of all my combined policies. Best luck in your decision.
One note: All they care about is the money. I made the 'adjustment team' look good when I suggested they cover the $1,500+ in parts costs for me to rebuild my own tranny v. a $2,300 'voucher' for a chain outfit to slap in a rebuild.
BTW, it's rather rat$IHJ that happened with errthin' else you got going on. Bull On.
And just caught toon-'s post = valid insights. I like the 'buyback'/swap-over deal if you're so inclined. And FWIW, my carrier would offer to do a home inspection if I couldn't get to their regional adjustment depot.
