That’s a very good point. I totally forgot about that!

This Base Bronco just sold for $220k at Barrett Jackson Auctions. It’s a 2.3L with a Soft-Top. The only customizations are a lift, wheels/tires, sidesteps, a bumper, and a custom leather interior. It’s even still running 3.73 gearing (stock suspension, non-sasquatch).

My Base Bronco came with Sasquatch, and has way more in modifications than this Bronco (including actual performance mods). Makes me wonder if I should send it off to Barrett Jackson, so I can buy a house

This really is a testament to the value of these machines. They’re worth way more than MRSP in the current market. And that doesn’t look like it’s changing anytime soon. Even with increased production, they look to be holding their value. Even my insurance company estimated my Broncos value at $20k more than I paid for it.

WTH!!!! Insane. You guys will see my Bronco at the next Auction haha!

Easily removable body panels should provide lots of space for illicit substances. I honestly can't wrap my head around someone have such a disparate ratio of Money:Brains other than a front to buy copious amounts of coke.

buyer turns around and tries to sell it now with a "legitimate" 220k valuation?

like I said, not sure what the scam is, but you can go out and buy a bronco off the lot of hundreds of ford dealers with what might be 10 or 20k of ADM... leaving you still 150k cheaper than this auction. So theres no possible legitimate explanation for this price.

Sure there is. Some people have more money than they do functioning brain cells.

Money laundering and drug running, hence the new interior.
