2. Some people do not consider a vehicle as
junk when they do not see it in a junk car
shop. A good example for this is that
others still drive a beaten up old truck
even though it is barely functioning
because (hey!) it is still running. The
engine's still fine. The "baby" can survive
another drive or two.
3. The problem with this is that car owners
risk their personal safety just because their
car can still carry them to places. These
people are either stubborn or clueless.
Everything has an expiration date. And a
car's value as a commodity is not an
exception from that. You should know it
when it's your car's time to see a junk car
shop. There are lots of shops that give
away hefty amounts when it comes to junk
cars for cash, especially when your car
only little damage.
4. A car accident
Typically, a car included in a large vehicular
accident cannot survive. It's a miracle if it, along
with its car parts, can still run after a big hit like
that. What happens now? Off to the junk car shop
of course. What else can be its fate? When you visit
a junk car shop, you will usually find wrecked cars
more than the other types. The most a car owner
can do is to find the best deal for his or her car-that
is, look for a junk car shop that pays more than the
other shops in the car owner's list.
5. Dysfunctional car parts
A vehicle may look okay outside but needs great
improvement when it comes to performance. As
mentioned earlier, car owners who still drive this
kind of car wish to inflict harm upon themselves.
Let's say that the car is a beloved of a person or
family. If that's the case, the person responsible
should place the effort and time in replacing the
engine or the windshield wiper or the break-or
everything mentioned above. It's even worse if
your car has more than three defective parts. It's
either you work on it or sell it to junk car shops.
6. Time
A car that looks like it is a hundred years old
but can still run is a sight to see. However, like
the issue posted earlier, this can be a threat to
personal safety. You may refer to your car as
vintage. That's cool. But when other people
just see it as a beaten up old car, perhaps you
should change your mind about introducing it
as "vintage" to people. It might not even be a
real vintage. It can be that time is just not to
kind to your car. A part of the blame can also
be thrown at you. It might be that you did not
take care for it the proper way. If that's the
case, you will know better next time.
