      Because after you part it out you have the remains of the car to deal with. Unless you have a place to store it or can easily take it to be crushed, that's more than most people want to deal with. That's why few people part out cars.

    I have a 2014 town and country. Even if I had that dent in the back liftgate, I would recommend it to you for your daughter. It doesn't get the best fuel mileage of the minivans. 21-25 mpg on the highway. However, it does everything else great. I have been commuting a 250-mile round trip for more than two years in the minivan, and it doesn't need anything other than general maintenance. I've had the tires balanced and rotated, but it didn't even need an alignment. I have everything that one has. I don't drive it daily around town, but as you see. They are in great shape when people donate them.

    As far as I'm aware, jumping the bumper only pops the hood (if the 12V is dead), and then you'd need to charge up the 12V in order to use the key to open the door. But can't just open the door by jumping it.

    Salvage titles are not convertible in Missouri and Kansas and Oklahoma and several other states.
    You can take one of those to a more reasonable state, get them inspected, and get a rebuilt branded title. I guarantee it can't be taken back to the plains states and titled there but there are plenty of places you can take them, get them inspected, and drive them.
