Seaside Insights

In Seaside, we see a wide range of vehicles coming in for cash. Pickup trucks like older Ford F-150s and Chevrolet Silverados are still popular, especially models from 2008 to 2014. Many of these trucks have high miles, over 150,000, and often have issues with worn out suspensions or leaky gaskets. On the other hand, smaller cars like Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas from 2012 to 2016 are common finds. These tend to have problems with worn out transmissions or electrical issues, especially if they’ve been driven many miles. SUVs such as the Ford Escape and Honda CR-V from the early 2010s are also frequently bought. These vehicles are popular but can have head gasket leaks or suspension troubles after a lot of use. Lately, we’ve noticed that older vehicles, those over 15 years, often come in because of rust or major engine trouble, making repairs too costly. However, newer cars, mainly post-2015, tend to sell faster and sometimes for more, even if they have minor issues like worn tires or batteries. Over the past year, vehicle prices have stayed pretty steady in Seaside, with only small changes. We see demand for budget-friendly vehicles, especially those with high miles, but trucks and SUVs tend to hold their value better. If your vehicle is around 10–15 years old and has some trouble, it might be a good time to sell, as repairs could cost more than the vehicle is worth.
