Some insurance companies mandate that a scrap or salvage vehicle go directly to the crusher to avoid future liability. State titling laws are so loose, it's very easy to "wash" a salvage title by transferring it though a couple states. When someone gets stuck with a unsafe or unreliable car that has been "washed", they are liable to sue the seller and anyone else with deep pockets to recoup the loss. State Farm has much deeper pockets than any previous owner of shady dealer, so they become the target. And it's cheaper to settle than defend a case. So, the path of least resistance is made sure the offending asset is destroyed and cannot be resold.

WOW...such a crime! Somthing like this vehicle would have been a great buy for someone looking to buy/build an offroad only rig. Not to mention those of us who like to extra parts laying around...just in case. Just a shame. Booooo!

There should be a crusher like that at the end of the assembly line until they make these things better. Can't wail to buy one that doesn't suck.

Yet another reason lawyers should outlawed.

According to the story on Ford authority the owner demanded it crushed as is.

I had to look and make sure it wasn't ours.

It moved to Houston and then just sat. Finally doesn't show a location anymore.

Looks like a promo. No salvage yard will purposefully destroy parts that can be taken off like the top can be sold. The spare tire holder could be sold. The taillights can be sold. This is just BS click bait

Beside the sad crushing of a Bronco, what a amazing machine that is to smash a full size vehicle like a soda can. That is awesome! Keep a look out, maybe this will be a prop at your next local Monster Jam 🍻

It's a shame they would crush a perfectly mediocre hard top.
If it flooded I would assume the cardboard interior is mush - which isn’t to far from a perfectly dry top.
