Frequently asked questions

How much is a 2010 Toyota Tundra worth?

A 2010 Toyota Tundra has a median retail value of $10,640, with most appraised between $8,281 and $13,225. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $3,500 across 69 recent sales — the middle 50% between $2,900 and $4,900.

Why is the 2010 Toyota Tundra so cheap at auction?

Because auction lots are not retail cars. Most carry collision or flood damage, a salvage or rebuilt title, or are dealer-only liquidations sold as-is with no warranty. For the 2010 Toyota Tundra that gap runs about 3.0× — $10,640 retail against a $3,500 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
