Louisville Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

We often find that trucks like older Ford F-150s and Chevy Silverados are popular choices for scrap and quick buys. Many of these vehicles are around 10 to 15 years old and have seen a lot of wear and tear. It’s common to see trucks with high mileage, sometimes over 200,000 miles, and they often have engine issues or rust from years of use. Small cars such as Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas are also common, especially models from the early 2010s. These cars are usually in decent shape but can have problems like a blown head gasket, transmission trouble, or minor accident damage. SUVs like Jeep Cherokees and Ford Escapes are on the rise, especially models from 2008 to 2015. Many of these have accident damage or frame issues but still hold some value for parts or repair. Older sedans like Honda Accords and Toyota Camrys from the late 2000s are still sought after, though they tend to have engine or suspension issues. Interestingly, the newer hybrid or electric models aren’t bought as often , they tend to be newer and in better condition, yet many aren’t damaged or totaled. The market shifts slightly from year to year, but older trucks and large cars still make up a big part of what we buy locally, mostly because repairs or replacements are too costly for some owners.
