Hempstead Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends*

At our company, we’ve noticed some clear patterns in the types of vehicles we buy in Hempstead. Older pickup trucks, especially Ford F-150s from the early 2000s, are popular picks. These trucks often come in with high mileage, some over 200,000 miles, and sometimes have engine trouble or rust in the bed. Sedans like Honda Civics from around 2010 are also common. People trade in these cars when they start having issues with brakes or airbags, or if the body gets damaged in minor accidents. Lately, we have seen more SUVs from the late 2000s and early 2010s, like Toyota RAV4s. Often, these SUVs come in with back or front-end damage after minor crashes. Meanwhile, fewer older minivans like Chrysler Town & Country are being bought, mostly because they get used hard by families and tend to have transmission problems after many years. We’re also seeing a rise in junk vehicles, especially cars that have been hit by floods or have engine failure. Interestingly, newer models like the 2015 Hyundai Elantra or Kia Forte are less common now, as owners tend to keep them longer or get them fixed instead of selling. The market shifts a bit each year but, in general, vehicles that are older, well used, or damaged tend to come in more often.
