Question 2

Was $5,900 a good price for this 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE?

Accepted Answer

2368 comparable 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE listings sold at auction for a median of $4,050, spanning $3,150 to $6,200. At $5,900 this one went 46% above that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 3

How much below its undamaged value did this CHEVROLET TRAVERSE sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE's pre-damage retail value at $17,986. It sold for $5,900 — 67% below that. A gap this size is normal for auction vehicles: the buyer takes on the repair cost, the paperwork and the risk that damage is worse than the photos show.

Question 4

What does a salvage title mean for this CHEVROLET TRAVERSE?

Accepted Answer

This 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE was sold on a salvage title. A salvage title means an insurer declared the vehicle a total loss. Repairing it and passing a state inspection can convert it to a rebuilt title, which stays on the record permanently and affects resale value.

Question 5

How far is this CHEVROLET TRAVERSE from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in KS - WICHITA. The nearest major vehicle export port is Houston, roughly 700 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $450-$675, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

Question 6

Is 58,751 miles high for a 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE listings at auction averaged 111,754 miles across 2368 sales, so at 58,751 miles this one sits 47% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.
