Kent Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

Many vehicles we buy in Kent are older SUVs and trucks, often between 2005 and 2015 models. Popular makes include Ford, Chevrolet, and Toyota. We see a lot of these trucks with high mileage , over 150,000 miles , and many have engine problems or worn out parts. SUVs like the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape are also common, especially models from the late 2000s and early 2010s. These vehicles are often bought because they are still useful, but some have frame damage or rust issues, especially if they’ve been driven in areas with rough winters. We’re noticing a trend where older cars, like Honda Civics from the early 2000s, are being replaced more often now. Many of these older cars have high wear and tear, with broken airbags or damaged transmissions. On the flip side, newer models from the last five years don’t come in as often now , people tend to keep those longer. Vehicles that were involved in accidents, especially rear-end or side impacts, often end up for sale. We also see more junk cars from vehicles that suffered severe damage or have blown engines, making repairs too costly. The market is always changing, but trucks and SUVs tend to stay popular choices for both drivers and buyers of junk vehicles alike.
