I dunno.. we donated an Escort station wagon a few years ago. Mom called the charity, they brought a tow truck, she signed the title over, they gave a reciept. It was probably easier than dealing with an individual. She actually had been contacted by a homeless guy that wanted to buy it so he could live in it, but she was afraid of liability problems since it needed new brakes and tires. The charity seemed like less of a hassle.
When it's time for my car to go, I'll probably donate it to a charity organization too. I'd do much better with the tax write off than trying to sell it.
