Amherst Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends
In Amherst, we see a lot of different types of vehicles come through our hands. Older trucks like Ford F-150s from the early 2010s and Chevrolet Silverado models are often bought, especially those with high mileage or minor engine problems. People tend to sell these because of rust or worn out parts. Compact cars like Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas from around 2015 to 2018 are also common. Many of these vehicles have high miles, often over 150,000, and sometimes have issues from previous accidents or bad brakes. Small SUVs, such as Honda CR-Vs and Ford Escape models from 2012 to 2016, are gaining popularity, especially ones that have engine leaks or suspension problems. On the flip side, newer sedans like Hyundai Elantras from 2019 or 2020 don’t pop up as often. We often find cars with damage from rear-end crashes or frame issues. Older minivans like Dodge Grand Caravans from 2008 to 2012 are still bought, especially when they have transmission troubles or last years’ rust. We notice that vehicles heavily damaged in accidents, with frame or major body issues, are less frequently traded in now, but sometimes they still come in for salvage. As the market shifts, we notice that newer, low-mileage vehicles stay in higher demand, while older, high mileage cars are more often sold for parts or scrap.
