I placed a new order for a Wildtrak on 10/25. It has most of the delay parts/packages so I am expecting a late 2022 or possibly a 2023.

Congrats on your sale! You have to seize these opportunities. Looks like it's already listed on Carmax. Mine is getting built in 2 weeks, and I'm torn and tempted to do the same.

2.3 soft top BB and no restrictions you'll be driving it by late spring. Find a large dealer and walk in to order it, there were a TON of people who did that this last round of scheduling and got picked.

Carmax paid me 14 over sticker...after tax, I cleared 10,700.
Test drove a '96 EB this morning. They're older and more worn than I thought.
Saw that on CarMax already. Glad to hear it wasn't someone else problem for sale.

Good idea if you are flexible.

I am too, but I think I am going to stick w mine.

Carmax offered me a ridiculous amount for my barebones base. I’d be mental to not accept that.

don't forget capital gains tax. Idk your tax bracket, but I'm assuming take at least another 22% off that $10,700.

man, I'm not judging, and I don't pretend to know you or your situation, and everyone has their price. But damn. After waiting all that time, $8k was yours.

Maybe I'm lucky in my life situation, but $8k just wouldn't do it for me. You'd have to get into the 20's for me to start thinking about it. But that would be unrealistic. I don't have a FE.

anyway. Good luck!

My wife and I discussed this. We agreed. It would have to be in the 25k range to even think about it. We have no kids. I don't even know where that money would go

Stock market?
Future kids college fund?

Idk we both live very comfortably and I get a lot of joy out of my Bronco. It'd have to be a serious summation for me to sell it for profit and be without it

How long did you have it for and how many miles did you put on it before selling?

Just curious. Thanks!

Ordinary income, didn't have long enough for cap gains. So Fed rate PLUS his state.

I'm still chuckling that he thinks Dirt Mtn is cleared. HAHAHAHHAHA. Out of the 500 rigs we're tracking, 50 have not been shipped. That represents about 10% give or take of all of them there....so figure 400-500 have not been released yet. Which is about 10% of what got hauled out there...

true true. I meant short term capital gains, which is same as ordinary income tax. so you got me there! :)

And forgot about state! Although, I think I saw OP is from Texas, so no income tax there...

Week 1 reservation holder here still waiting for a build date and I believe there are still day one reservation holders waiting as well.
Yup, thats me......day one FE order holder.......BUT.......mine is on a rail car and headed to the PNW as we speak, hope to be having these terrible decisions the first week of Dec while I drive home. I'm keeping mine......well, unless someone wants to give me $50K over for it.:ROFLMAO: Basically I'm keeping it, I have fewer days ahead in life and have some big trips planned with friends. Good luck getting back in line.
