Westerville Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends*

In Westerville, we often see a variety of vehicles come through our doors. Popular models include older Ford F-150 trucks, usually around 10 to 15 years old, which sometimes have rust or transmission issues but remain in high demand for parts or repairs. We also frequently buy compact sedans like the Chevrolet Malibu from the early 2010s. Many of these vehicles have high mileage and might suffer from worn out starters or minor frame damage from minor accidents. SUVs such as the Nissan Rogue and Honda Pilot are also sought after, especially those from the mid-2000s to early 2010s. These tend to have issues like faulty suspension or leaking gaskets, making them less desirable for long-term use but still good for reselling or scrap. Recently, we’ve noticed a slight increase in the purchase of newer models like the Toyota Tacoma, which are cleaner and often have fewer mechanical problems but may have accident damage or cosmetic issues.
