Renton Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends*

In Renton, we see a mix of vehicles come through our doors. Many of the cars are around 10 to 20 years old, with some older trucks and SUVs too. People often sell us sedans like the Honda Civic from the early 2000s or older Ford Focus models. These cars are common because they are cheap to fix and get good gas mileage, making them popular for everyday driving. Lately, we’ve been buying more late model trucks like Chevy Silverados from the mid-2010s. Trucks tend to hold their value better, but we often get ones with high mileage or some body damage. Many vehicles have engine or transmission issues, especially those over 15 years old. We also see a rise in junk vehicles with accident damage, such as rear-end crashes that left the car too expensive to repair. Sometimes, we see older SUVs like the Toyota RAV4, which can have issues with suspension or leaks. The most sought after vehicles are still reliable models like Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas, but more broken down or damaged vehicles are always coming in.
