One of the more useless articles I've seen, to be honest.

But yeah, I mean, all regular production cars get hit with "big" depreciation.

It's only anomalous situations that don't.

Don't care what "they" say -- Not buying this for resale in a few years - Gonna drive it til it drops...I keep vehicles until the KBB value goes under $1K or they start making expensive noises...

Breaking news ! Vehicles depreciate. Story at 5:00 news...

What a jack wagon that matthew crisara the author is.

”Car Edge talks about the possibility that ownership will be fraught with financial difficulties.”

Financial difficulties because there is no rebate on the Bronco?

 

[Headsong]

Duh. Whatever. Once inventory fills, of course there'll be usual discounts. I don't care.

Who writes this....who reads this crap? Seriously, who buys a car for the resale value? Cars fulfill an emotional role for me. I drive them as long as I enjoy them or they stop holding up their end of the real by breaking and costing me a lot of money. Don't care about resale and never have.

Honestly, I think the Bronco will stay on pace with the F150 or better. I am not worried and really do not care.

It seems contradictory to say that "rebates and discounts will be nonexistent for the foreseeable future" and "unparalleled surplus of demand over supply" while the premise of the article is how much value they will lose during the first couple of years. Based on those two assertions, I would think the Bronco would depreciate less than the average new car, not more.

As a Fixed Asset Accountant, I find this particularly entertaining...

Maybe he should stick to typical gearhead conversation.

Everybody wants them and nobody can get one, you’ll never be able to sell them used...I’ll be honest I’ve considered ordering two to sell 1 for a profit.

I remember the 66 Bronco. It's value was lower due to the D30 and other options not offered the 1st year, but now it's a collector piece. So buy a 2021 and in 50 years it will be priceless. Building them at 5K a week once the initial flood is over they will be on the lots like Explorers and F150's. The day will come when you can order it and have it in 6 weeks below invoice.

Good thing many of us will be paying $1k under invoice. Thanks to the TWO dealers in the entire country who are doing this.

I think that article is BS. Interest in the Bronco is off the charts. 21MY Broncos will be of somewhat limited numbers by the time they start rolling off the production line. (Supply and Demand) Second, Bronco is a Body on frame vehicle, not a Uni-body, (less likely to depreciate as much). There will be depreciation, but it won't be as bad as the article suggests.
