Duluth Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends*

In Duluth, we tend to buy a variety of vehicles, but certain types are more common than others. Older trucks like the Ford Ranger and Chevrolet S10 often show up, usually around 15-20 years old with engine or transmission wear. These vehicles are popular because they’re simple to fix and still quite useful for work or hauling. Sedans such as the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry also make up a big part of our purchases. Many of these are around 10-15 years old, often needing repairs on engines or suspension parts. On the other hand, compact cars like Hyundai Elantra and Kia Forte have become less frequent, as their resale value drops and they’re harder to find in good condition. We’ve also noticed a rise in junk vehicles, especially older BMW 3 Series or Mercedes-Benz C-Class models that have suffered collision damage or rust issues. SUVs like the Ford Escape and Nissan Rogue remain sought after, especially ones from the late 2000s or early 2010s with high mileage or minor body damage.
