Lima Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends
We often buy a variety of vehicles from local people, especially older cars and trucks that are no longer running well. Many customers bring in cars like Ford F-150s from the early 2000s or Honda Civics from the mid-2010s. These vehicles tend to be around 10-20 years old now. We also see a lot of SUVs such as Ford Explorers and Chevrolet Tahoes that have a lot of miles on them or have been involved in minor accidents. Sometimes, people trade in vehicles with engine issues, transmission problems, or body damage caused by crashes. For trucks, heavily worn but still sturdy pickups from the late 1990s and early 2000s are common finds. Sedans with high mileage , over 200,000 miles , and cars that have rust on the body are frequent purchases. Recently, we’ve noticed a small rise in interest for hybrids like the Toyota Prius, especially models from 2010-2015, though many of these come in with battery issues or are just worn out from heavy use. The most sought after vehicles tend to be reliable, older trucks or economy cars that still run, even if they’re in rough shape. Down the line, older cars with a lot of damage or missing parts become harder to sell, so we focus on those that can still be repaired or have some useful parts left inside. This mix of vehicles shows what most people in Lima are trying to get rid of and what type of vehicles stay in the local market longer.
