Lansing Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends
In Lansing, the vehicles we buy most often tend to be around 10 to 15 years old, with a good mix of sedans, trucks, and SUVs. Popular models include Toyota Camrys from the early 2000s, Honda Accords, and Ford Explorers from the late 2000s. Many of these cars have high mileage and may show signs of wear or minor accidents from years of use. We see a rise in demand for recent model SUVs, especially the Honda CR-V and Nissan Rogue, which are sought after for their reliability. On the other hand, older compact cars like the Chevrolet Cobalt and Mazda 3 have seen a decline, mostly because their parts are harder to find and repairs are costly. Vehicles with engine issues, transmission problems, or body damage from crashes are common purchases, especially when repairs aren’t worth the cost. Many of the trucks we take in are from the late 1990s and early 2000s, including Ford F-150s and Dodge Rams. Although some vehicles sit for longer due to rust or blown engines, overall, we notice more interest in running, newer models than in the past few years.
