Watertown Insights
In Watertown, we often see a variety of vehicles coming in, but certain types tend to stand out. Sedans like the Ford Fusion and Hyundai Elantra are common, especially those around 8 to 12 years old. Many of these cars have high mileage, over 150,000 miles, and sometimes need engine repairs or transmission work. Pickup trucks, especially older Ford F-150s and Chevrolet Silverados, are also popular purchases. These trucks are often used for work and can have issues like rust or suspension problems. SUVs, such as the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Nissan Rogue, are gaining popularity. However, some of these vehicles are being sold with accident damage or worn out parts like the timing belt or brakes. Recently, we’ve noticed a shift: newer models from 2015 and up, including the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla, are in higher demand, especially those with minimal damage. Older models with hidden issues tend to sell for less, particularly when the transmissions are slipping or the airbags have been deployed.
