Chapel Hill Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends
In Chapel Hill, the vehicles we see most often are a mix of older and newer models. Trucks like the Dodge Ram 1500 and Toyota Tacoma are popular choices, especially among those needing reliable work vehicles. Many of these trucks are around 10 to 15 years old and often have mechanical issues or rust from past years of use. Sedans such as Honda Accords and Ford Fusions are also common purchases. These cars are usually between 8 and 12 years old and often come in with high mileage, sometimes over 150,000 miles, with worn out brakes or suspension problems. We also buy lots of junk vehicles, including old BMW 3 Series and Nissan Sentras that are no longer running or have extensive accident damage. Interestingly, lately, we’ve seen a slight increase in interest for newer SUVs like the Hyundai Tuscon and Mazda CX-5, especially those from 5 to 8 years old. These vehicles tend to be in better shape but may have transmission or engine issues, especially if they’ve had multiple owners. The market shows that older, heavily damaged cars decline in value quickly, but functioning or minimally damaged vehicles hold steady or even trend upward slightly.
