Local Insights

In Portland, we often buy a mix of older trucks, sedans, and SUVs from the past decade. Vehicles like the Ford Escape, Honda Civic, and Chevrolet Silverado are common finds. Many of these are around 10 to 15 years old and usually have high mileage. We notice that smaller cars, especially the Honda Civic from around 2012 to 2015, are still popular, but they often come with transmission issues or worn out brakes. On the other hand, pickup trucks like the Silverado or Ram 1500 tend to hold their value longer, although rust and engine trouble are common with older models. SUVs such as Ford Expeditions or Toyota RAV4s from the early 2010s are also frequently bought. These vehicles tend to need new tires or suspension work, especially if they’ve been driven on rough roads. Recently, we’ve seen a slight decline in older sedans from the early 2000s, which often have failing head gaskets or electrical problems. Conversely, newer models, especially those made after 2015, are in higher demand because buyers look for vehicles with fewer repairs needed or better fuel economy. The overall trend shows that trucks and larger SUVs are remaining steady in value, while smaller older cars are becoming less desirable due to age and wear. If you have a vehicle like a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee or a 2010 Honda Accord, it might be a good idea to consider selling soon, especially if repairs are piling up. Vehicles that are a decade or older typically need more fixes, but they still keep some value if they’re in working condition.
