Why do people do this? Waste!

These cars have been sitting here for at least 5 years. I stopped last year to see whats up and the daughter or care taker said the guy doesn't want to sell them. I said they could be worth a lot of money and she said "I know but he won't sell". here we are this spring and still sitting rotting away. :mumum: Why are people like this? Charger RT appears to be original, They have dogs, and maybe a shot gun, so I didn't want to walk around.
