Lodi Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

In Lodi, we see a variety of vehicles come through our doors, with trucks and SUVs being the most common. Older models like the 2010 Ford Escape and 2012 Chevrolet Equinox are frequent because they’re affordable and often have high mileage. People tend to bring in cars with engine issues, worn out brakes, or minor accident damage. Many vehicles are in the 10-15 year age range, and wear and tear can really add up. Compact cars such as a 2014 Hyundai Elantra or a 2011 Toyota Corolla are also popular, especially when they start showing electrical problems or transmission failures. Interestingly, there’s a rise in late model pickups like Ford F-150s from 2015 or newer, which buyers look for in good condition but sometimes have accident damage or mechanical issues. On the decline are older economy sedans, as owners have started replacing them with newer, more reliable vehicles. Understanding which vehicles are trending up or down helps us better evaluate what’s in the local market, especially when it comes to older trucks and SUVs.
