    My guess $250k. Plus lost science opportunity in the form of about 1/2 a cargo bag, I won't even tell you what that runs.
    You're right. I was trying to be optimistically vague.

    Oh they run like a raped ape. I once had a customer at the shop that would return his with no mag when they're dirty for warranty and get a free cleaning and a new mag.

    Also, it appears that there were insufficient load bearing walls to support the roof trusses.

    Still a $200K + unit.

    IIRC that home dropped from excessive snow load, many a year back. Or it could be another one off rd 60 NW of town.
