San Antonio Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends*

In San Antonio, we see many different types of cars come through our hands. Pickups like Ford F-150s and Chevrolet Silverados are still popular, especially models from around 2010 to 2015. Many of these trucks have high mileage or minor engine problems, but they’re still in demand because they’re good for work or hauling stuff. Sedans, such as Honda Civics and Toyota Camrys, are also common, mostly between 2008 and 2012. Most have some rust or minor dents, and some have been in small accidents. We’ve noticed fewer older cars from the early 2000s, mostly because they tend to break down or have serious engine or transmission issues. SUVs like Ford Escapes and Honda CR-Vs are trending up, especially those from 2010 to 2016. Many of these have crash damage or worn out brakes but still interest buyers looking for affordable options. Vehicles with rebuilt titles or those needing repairs are more common now. The key is that most cars we buy are at least 10 years old, with some having damage from accidents or just old parts that need fixing.
