Redwood City Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends
In Redwood City, we see a mix of different vehicles coming through our doors. Older trucks like Ford F-150s from the early 2000s and Chevrolet Silverados are still common but seem to be slowing down in number. Smaller sedans, especially Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas from 2008 to 2015, are in steady demand. We also get a lot of SUVs, like Ford Explorers and Jeep Cherokees, mainly from 2010 to 2018. Most of these vehicles are about 10 to 15 years old now. Many have high miles on them, over 150,000 miles, and some have engine or transmission problems. Accidents happen, too. We often see vehicles with rear-end damage, dents, or broken windows, especially on older models. Surprisingly, we’ve noticed a slight bump in newer trucks from 2015 to 2020. People are ditching cars that are too old or broken and turning to more recent pickups, which are popular for work or hauling. On the other hand, older compact cars keep losing popularity, probably because they’re getting too old and not worth fixing anymore. We also see a fair number of junk cars and vehicles that don’t run at all, often with frame damage or missing parts. In general, vehicles with moderate damage or higher mileage tend to be what we most frequently purchase in Redwood City. The market keeps changing, but the core vehicles stay pretty similar from year to year.
