Cars We Picked Up This Week — July 28, 2026

The week of July 28th kept our drivers busy all across Long Island. We picked up seven vehicles — sedans, a van, an SUV, and even a luxury Mercedes — from Sayville to Brentwood and everywhere in between. Some went straight to scrap, others still had plenty of life left. Either way, every owner got paid cash on the spot and we towed for free.

Here's the full breakdown.

2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid — Sayville, NY

Hybrid vehicles are becoming more common in our pickups, and this 2014 Fusion Hybrid out of Sayville is a perfect example of why. When a hybrid's battery system starts failing, repair costs can be enormous — often more than the car is worth. That's exactly what happened here. The owner made the smart call and reached out to us instead of sinking money into it. We paid a fair cash price and had it towed away the same day.

Condition: Hybrid battery failure, non-running
Outcome: Scrapped


2008 Mitsubishi Montero — Mastic, NY

The Mitsubishi Montero is a rugged SUV that was built to last, but this 2008 out of Mastic had finally hit its limit. Years of hard use had taken their toll — engine issues, rust, and worn-out suspension made it more trouble than it was worth to repair. The owner had already moved on and just needed it gone. We came out to Mastic, paid cash, and sent it to the yard.

Condition: Engine failure, rust, non-running
Outcome: Scrapped


2004 Honda Accord — Huntington, NY

Honda Accords are among the most reliable cars ever made, but even they eventually wear out. This 2004 model out of Huntington had over 200,000 miles on it and a transmission that finally gave up. At that age and mileage, a transmission replacement just doesn't make financial sense. The owner called us, we made a fair offer based on scrap value, and it was off their driveway within a few hours.

Condition: Transmission failure, high mileage, non-running
Outcome: Scrapped


2003 Ford E-250 Van — Northport, NY

Work vans like the Ford E-250 are built tough, but this 2003 out of Northport had reached the end of its working life. The owner had used it for years as a contractor vehicle and it had the wear to show for it — engine problems, body rust, and worn-out mechanicals throughout. We buy commercial vans all the time and this one was no different. Paid cash, towed it free, done.

Condition: Engine issues, body rust, non-running
Outcome: Scrapped


2014 Nissan Altima — Long Island, NY

The Nissan Altima is one of the most popular sedans on Long Island, and we pick them up regularly. This 2014 model had a CVT transmission failure — a known issue with Altimas of this era. CVT replacements are expensive, and with the car's age and mileage, the owner decided it wasn't worth it. We stepped in with a cash offer and had it removed quickly.

Condition: CVT transmission failure, non-running
Outcome: Scrapped


2006 Ford Focus — Huntington, NY

Small cars like the Ford Focus don't always get the same scrap value as larger vehicles, but we buy them all the same. This 2006 Focus out of Huntington had been sitting for a while — dead, rusted, and not worth fixing. The owner just wanted it gone without paying a towing company. We came out, paid what it was worth, and hauled it away at no charge.

Condition: Non-running, rust, sitting long-term
Outcome: Scrapped


2014 Mercedes GL450 — Brentwood, NY

The highlight of the week. This 2014 Mercedes GL450 out of Brentwood was still running and driving — a full-size luxury SUV in working condition. The owner was ready to move on and didn't want the hassle of listing it privately or dealing with lowball offers from strangers. We made a strong offer that reflected the vehicle's running status and condition, picked it up same day, and the owner walked away with a solid cash payout.

If you have a luxury vehicle — running or not — don't assume we won't make a competitive offer. We buy Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Lexus, and all other luxury brands across Long Island every week.

Condition: Runs & drives
Outcome: Purchased running
