Eric's Expert Take
Eric is our founder and CEO and has nearly 15 years of experience buying and selling used and junk cars in the state of Montana. He is also a data nerd with a finger on the pulse of the cash for cars industry and salvage vehicle values.
Hey there, I’m Eric Mitz, the CEO and founder of The Clunker Junker. I’ve just been reviewing our offers in Montana and it’s fascinating to see the figures. Currently, we’re offering an average of $433 for vehicles in this area. Small cars, like the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic, fetch a bit less, averaging around $309. Meanwhile, pickup trucks such as the Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 command the highest offers, bringing in around $918. SUVs and crossovers, including models like the Chevrolet Equinox and Ford Escape, fall in the middle with offers averaging $447.
In the past month, we’ve successfully purchased approximately 1,638 vehicles here at The Clunker Junker, shelling out more than $700,000 in total. It’s no surprise that the Jeep Grand Cherokee topped the list as our most popular choice in Montana. As an SUV, the Grand Cherokee is known for its robust design and off-road capability. However, it can also come with a host of problems such as transmission issues, electrical malfunctions, and air suspension failures. Given these common troubles, selling the vehicle for cash might be a wiser option than investing a fortune in repairs.
When it comes to the broader used car market in Montana, we’re seeing a steady trend. Prices have remained remarkably stable with only a slight monthly adjustment of just -0.6%. This consistency aligns closely with where we were about a year ago, suggesting that prices will continue to hold steady for the foreseeable future. This stability makes it a fantastic time to sell your car. As always, I’ll be keeping a close watch on market trends and will ensure you’re updated with any shifts.
