Anyone checked Carvana or Carmax lately?

Ford just moved the ADM into the retail/wholesale so Ford themselves get more of the money. While still counting the profits from the SAS package.

I sold my '22 Badlands back to the dealer for exactly what I paid for it ($2K under MSRP) in July. It had 13K miles on it and I left the $4K of upgrades on the truck. They turned it around and sold it the next day to a buyer in a different state.

Was fun to drive but was very glad to let it go at minimal loss.

Car market in general is tanking due to higher interest and over the top supply (finally caught up).

You won't get what you want because the dealerships can't move what they have.

Spot on, funny how we’re starting to see car commercials with incentives again.

Rates being what they are, the majority of people know it’s a bad time to buy anything. Even paying cash gives up so much opportunity cost in interest.

Don’t worry, we’ll start propping up the economy before next November.

Carvana offer was 40k for my 21 4 dr Badlands 2.7/Lux with 33k miles.
Carmax said they "need to see the vehicle" to make an offer.
I guess the party is over for those great offers of just 2 years ago.

After I cancelled my $100.00 Bronco order the exact one I ordered was for sale used at a local dealer for 63K...it's still on the lot but now has a price of 53K...They wouldn't sell it to me for 53k back then...my new one cost 56k...dealers are a little greedy at times and pay for their mistakes...

Also try Carmax, CarNation, Vroom, and AutoNation.

We got LOTS of Broncos (2drs and moar doors) running around Denton and DFW at large the last month or two. I pretty much see at least one or two on runs to the grocery store or whatever. We're not as rare as we used to be... lol

The reason I occasionally check my value with the car sites like Carvana is to have an established value if my Bronco gets totalled. The insurance companies try to lowball you and if you have a good offer to back up your claim you have a better chance at being fairly compenstaed.
BTW, they are still offering me about $2k more than my OTD price a year later. I've never owned anyhting that held it's value that well. If you paid sticker it's not so bad, but you other kids will never get the ADM back.

Im Thinking of selling mine. A used Porsche cayman s or RS3 might be what I need. 22k miles on 2021 2 dr BL with soft (bestop) and hardtops mid package. 2.7 with factory tow. I love it but I REALLY hate not driving fast. Especially in FL. Not much here other than beach days. have the temp digits on HVAC so that should be worth something lol. Paid MSRP 48,000 - CarMax is coming in at$42,000 almost 3 years later.

Nobody cares about those parasites.

Well, they gave me 34,400 for my FJ, which I paid 34,600 for 7 yrs previously, right before I got the Bronco so I have no problem with those parasites.

As everyone here probably knows, vehicles are not a investment. The same is going on in the motorcycle world.

It's been fun watching the prices fluctuate, but I love my Bronco so much that I could care less what the resale values are. 27,000+ miles of smiles in nearly 2 years! I simply couldn't put a price on the number of adventures and fun that I've had. The fun factor is off the charts!

Of the ones I checked Vroom had the strongest offer. CarMax was next but significantly behind Vroom. Carvana was a low ball. However, the only one that made me chuckle was Peddle. After entering the info, including the vin, they offered to buy my 2023 Wildtrak with hard top and lux package, with less than 1200 miles, for $18,000. Yes, you read that right - $18,000. Over the next few days they continued to send me emails stating that their offer was still good. This is what they had to say:

“We’re still interested in your 2023 Ford Bronco, but act fast this offer will expire soon.”

I was not expecting a strong offer from Peddle but an $18,000 offer was a little on the crazy side of things. I finally reached out to them and told them to stop emailing me.

I'm kinda skeptical of anyone saying these sites are offering more than what was paid. I'm getting offers almost $10k less than what I paid. I paid msrp in 21 and only have 8900 miles on it.
2dr Big Bend SAS with all the options. Mid, Sig Lights, hard top, switches, towing.

Hardtops and SAS models seem to be holding value better. The dealerships are learning what moves and what doesn’t. I was able to negotiate $5k below MSRP over the phone with a Ford dealership in SA. But it wasn’t exactly what I want. A week later I bought a ‘22 Gladiator Texas Trail edition and ordered a Black Diamond from a small town Ford dealership same day. The jeep will hold me over until the Bronco comes in late next year and I will be able to compare them for myself. Hopefully the Jeep will hold its value.
Planning to keep the Bronco forever if Ford can fix all the bugs.
It will be the first time I’ve ever bought a new vehicle let alone ordered one exactly how I want it.
