Pasadena Insights

In Pasadena, we see a wide variety of vehicles come through, but some are more common than others. Pickups like the Ford Ranger and Chevrolet S-10 are still popular, especially older models from the early 2000s. Many of these trucks are around 15-20 years old and often have issues like rusty frames or worn out engines. On the other hand, newer SUVs such as Honda CR-Vs and Ford Escapes are gaining popularity. These models from the mid-2010s usually have minor scratches or interior wear but are still in good running shape. Sedans like the Toyota Camry and Hyundai Sonata are also often bought, particularly those from 2008 to 2012, which sometimes come in with transmission problems or blown head gaskets. The trend shows a slight dip in the number of junk cars, mainly because older vehicles in rough shape get scrapped or repaired rather than sold. Interestingly, sporty cars like Mazda Miatas and Subaru Imprezas are less common now but still sought after by collectors or enthusiasts if they are in good condition. Many vehicles in Pasadena have been driven for well over 150,000 miles, and age related issues like worn out suspension or leaking fluids are common. Accident damage is typical in vehicles from the early 2000s, especially those that were in minor crashes, but some more severe accidents have led to junking older models.
