Riverside Insights

In Riverside, we see a lot of different vehicles come through, but certain types tend to be more common than others. Compact cars like the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Forte are still popular among buyers, especially models from around 2012 to 2015. These older sedans often have issues with their transmissions or electrical systems, which can make fixing them more costly than their worth. On the other hand, larger vehicles like Ford Escape SUVs and Honda Pilot trucks are in decent demand. Typically, these are models from the early 2010s with high mileage, and they sometimes have problems with engine leaks or worn out suspension parts. Pickup trucks, especially Chevy Silverados and Ram 1500s from around 2010 to 2014, are also commonly purchased, but many have rust spots or brake system issues. Recently, we’ve noticed an increase in interest for newer model SUVs, like the Mazda CX-5 from 2017 or 2018, especially those with minor cosmetic damage or high mileage. The trend shows that older vehicles and those needing significant repairs are decreasing in value, while slightly newer models with minimal issues hold a bit more appeal. Most vehicles we buy have been around 10 to 15 years old, often with over 150,000 miles on the clock. Regardless of the type, vehicles with major engine or transmission problems tend to be less sought after these days. If your vehicle is past its prime or needs costly fixes, selling it as-is could be your best option.
