Used car appraisals are essentially a process of deduction. But do you know how to go about it specifically?

One truck, one inspection — that's what the editor here will tell you.

Inspect the paint surface to determine if it has been repainted or bodywork repairs, which can indicate whether there has been an accident or just minor scratches that were patched.

The disassembly of the fixed screws can indicate whether there has been any accident in this area.

If both of the above points are present, further inference is needed from the vehicle's exterior to its interior to determine the size and severity of the accident.

Original factory weld points are a critical basis for assessing side accidents and cuts.
