So while I wait for an insurance adjuster to get to me and total my car due to hitting a deer, I've begun looking at other options in my area to see what's for sale. I found one Odyssey - 2010 w/122K on it, for $7000 that intrigues me. I haven't seen the car yet since it's a good distance away, but I talked to the owner and she told me it was a salvage title. She sent the Vehicle History Report to me, which I attached here, for anyone to take a look at.
This is uncharted territory for me. What has been people's experience with salvage titles? What to make of this report? Is pursuing something like this a good or bad idea?

Scotty has warned that Honda Odysseys have weak transmissions. If you proceed, have a mechanic check it out with a scan tool that is fancy enough to see any transmission codes and pay careful attention to transmission behavior while road testing.

Edited the settings - should be accessible now.
Thank you. Works now.
I read the vehicle report and it seems like a risky proposition. I would contact your insurance provider first to see if they would even write a liability policy on the vehicle.
The picture doesn't show a pretty sight.
