I don’t see the winch getting used.

There is a large percentage of mounted winches that don't get used ;)
But hey who could pass up this bargain :sneaky:

Those wheels actually decrease the value. That one should be around 35k, or 40k if you put it up on concrete blocks.

I don't even know if I've seen a Jeep look this bad.

Those wheels and tires look so stupid. I'll be glad when that dumbass fad goes away.
As bad is this one is, the next one will probably be worse. Who could have ever guessed the “Carolina squat” would be a thing 🤣

Not sure what the problem is here. There's going to be lost of winches on Bronco's soon enough. While they won't be used for the most part, it is nice to have for anyone doing any off-roading. Haven't been a big fan of the white steelies but I actually like it on the all white Bronco.

Those aren’t white steelies and that thing won’t need a winch at the mall.

One last thing on Pilson :). They arent getting allocations and marking them up. They are buying from people that own them and Pilson is paying the customer over sticker. They are marking it up and selling them to others at a small mark up. Customer pays, say $40,000. Pilson pays the customer (not Pilsons customer - they usually buy them off ebay.) $50,000. They then turn around and sell it for $60,000. With demand so high, there is a lot of meat on the bone. I see dealers marking them up 100 grand. Thats shitty but at the end of the day, you can't blame them for asking. Supply and demand.

People should be happy they are selling them for that high (because they are selling). Just makes yours worth all that much more.

yep, that's how I look at it, first time that I buy a new car and the moment I drive it off the lot it's worth more, not less, LOL.

You are correct on them not being steelies. Guess that's what I get for just glancing at the picture. I found the listing and read through it. Looks like they are 20's. Not my choice of wheel but don't think it looks THAT bad. How do you know the new owner won't take it off-roading and one day need the winch? Not that hard either to buy it, take those wheels off, sell them and then get a proper setup for the wheels and tires while having a nice bumper/winch combo to do some off-roading with. It's all perspective....but I forget sometimes that this is the internet where it's cooler to be negative about everything. :ROFLMAO:

It is not true. I saw the DM transcript of one of Pilson's attempt at buying a customer's Bronco. I have a level of trust in the group and the person asked me for my opinion on the offer. The offer was at sticker. The existing buyer was still out the taxes already paid and would have had to pay the delivery from Florida to Illinois. The OBX would have been slapped with a $60K sticker on it by Pilson based on the outrageous asking price of "used" Big Bends that they get their hands on.

Nothing is wrong with what Pilson Ford is doing. They buy from willing sellers and sell to willing buyers. Capitalism baby!
Saying "capitalism" doesn't make something right (or wrong).
