Mentor Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

In Mentor, we often buy a mix of older and newer vehicles, but some types stand out more than others. Pickup trucks like the Ford Ranger and Chevrolet Colorado are still popular because they’re practical for work and have good value even at 10 or 15 years old. We also see a lot of sedan models such as the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry, especially those built between 2008 and 2013. These cars are common but tend to have issues with worn out brakes, alternators, or noisy suspensions, which can make repairs tricky. Recently, there’s been a rise in interest for smaller SUVs like the Nissan Rogue and Hyundai Tucson, which are younger, around 5 to 10 years old. They’re usually in decent shape but often need new tires or a little engine work. On the other hand, older sedans from the early 2000s are becoming less sought after, mainly because they’re more prone to rust and engine problems. Trends show that practical, reliable vehicles continue to hold their value in Mentor.
