Columbus Insights
In Columbus, we often see pickup trucks like the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and Ram 1500 coming in for cash. These trucks are popular for work or hauling, but many of them are around 10 to 15 years old now. Common issues include rusted frames, worn out transmissions, or damaged engines. SUVs such as the Ford Escape and Honda CR-V are also in demand, especially models from the late 2000s and early 2010s. Many of these have high mileage, over 150,000 miles, and often face problems like failing alternators, leaking fluids, or broken suspension parts. Smaller cars like the Hyundai Elantra or Mazda 3 are frequently purchased too. These tend to be about 8 to 12 years old and can have issues like blown head gaskets or rust spots, especially on older models from the early 2010s. Smaller sedans and compact cars are staying steady or declining in value because they often need costly repairs and have higher wear and tear. Many buyers look for vehicles with less rust and fewer mechanical problems, but older models with major issues tend to be very inexpensive or good for parts only.
