Shoreline Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends
In Shoreline, we buy lots of different vehicles, but some types are more common than others. Older cars like Honda Civics from the early 2010s are still popular because they run well and people can find them easily. We also see a lot of pickup trucks, especially Ford F-150s and Chevrolet Silverados, which are used for work and hauling stuff. Many of these vehicles are around 10 to 15 years old. Sometimes, we get cars with high mileage, over 150,000 miles, or vehicles that need repairs due to rust or engine trouble. We also buy cars that have been in accidents, like rear-end crashes or minor body damage. Recently, newer models such as the Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR-V are appearing more often because families like their reliability. Interestingly, the number of junked sedans from the early 2000s has dropped a bit, but larger trucks and SUVs remain in demand. Older hybrid vehicles, like the Toyota Prius from 2008-2012, are harder to find, but some still come in if they have battery issues or significant damage.
