Thornton Insights

In Thornton, most of the vehicles we buy are around 10 to 15 years old. Pickup trucks like the Dodge Ram and Toyota Tacoma are popular, especially those with high mileage or minor rust. We also see many older sedans such as the Hyundai Elantra and Ford Fusion, which often have worn out brakes or suspension issues. Many of these vehicles come in after accidents, with frame damage or engine trouble, making repairs costly. Compact cars like the Nissan Sentra and Honda Civic are still in demand, but their prices are dropping because many have high mileage and faded interiors. SUVs like the Jeep Cherokee and Ford Escape are also common, but they sometimes have issues with leaks or engine oil consumption. Interestingly, older models from the early 2000s are starting to be less desirable, owners tend to trade in or junk them rather than repair. Most vehicles purchased have some level of wear and tear, with engine or transmission problems being frequent.
