Alameda Insights

Many vehicles we see come from a few specific types. Smaller cars like Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas are still popular, especially models from around 2010 to 2015. These cars are often getting older and might have issues like worn out brakes, engine problems, or electrical glitches. Despite their age, they are easy to tow and sell. Pickup trucks, especially Ford F-150s and Dodge Rams from the early 2000s, are also common. Many of these have high mileage, and some show signs of rough use such as rust or bent frames. SUVs like the Jeep Cherokees and Nissan Rogues are trending up, with owners pushing them past 150,000 miles. Common problems include transmission slipping or faulty air conditioning, but they still fetch decent values. Vehicles that show front-end damage from minor accidents are often popular because we can repair and resell them quickly. On the other hand, older models like the Chevrolet Malibu from 2008 or the Hyundai Sonata from 2012 are decreasing in purchase frequency, mainly because they tend to have more costly engine repairs or rust issues. Vehicles with significant mechanical problems, such as blown engines or severe frame rust, rarely sell for much. Staying aware of these trends can help sellers understand what to expect when considering selling their used or junk cars.
