A new permanent (or long-term) feature has been added with the Junkyard Event. This introduces a car-flipping mechanic.
Location: The Rensselaer Junkyard is located on the right side of the main road, just after you exit the Dealership area.
How It Works: You can purchase damaged and non-running vehicles from the Junkyard at a significantly reduced price.
The Goal: Your task is to repair these broken-down vehicles and then resell them for a profit at another location, like the dealership.
