During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded non-compete agreement assets in conjunction with small acquisitions in the amount of less than $0.1 million for each year.  During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a finite-lived asset, related to customer relationships from the Vast Auto acquisition, in the amount of $32.8 million.   Other than the non-compete agreement assets, the Company did not record additional finite-lived during the year ended December 31, 2023, or indefinite-lived intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.  For the year ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded aggregate amortization expense related to its intangible assets in the amounts of $3.6 million, $3.0 million and $4.8 million, respectively.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets, such as trade names, are reviewed for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may exist.  The Company did not record any indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, or 2022.
