Columbia Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends*

In the vehicle market of Columbia, we see a mix of older trucks, sedans, and SUVs coming in for cash offers. Many of these vehicles are between 10 and 20 years old, with models like Ford F-150s, Honda Civics, and Chevrolet Silverados. These trucks and cars are usually used daily for commuting or work, so they tend to have a lot of miles on them. Most of the time, they have some kind of issue, maybe engine trouble, worn out brakes, or rust spots from years of driving. We also see many vehicles that have been in minor accidents, with dents, scratches, or even frame damage. Some owners bring in vehicles with broken transmissions or blown engines, especially if they’ve been sitting unused for a while. Lately, we’ve noticed a bit of a shift: older pickup trucks, especially 2005 to 2010 models, are still popular because they’re rugged and cheap to repair. On the flip side, small sedans like older Honda Civics or Toyota Corollas are less common because people prefer more modern, fuel-efficient cars. Still, a fair number of junkers with severe damage or that no longer run come in.
