Another strong sale to make you wonder if things are truly settling. Again, very nice but still on par with the sales of last year.

The frenzy is definitely not over. This one bucked the trends of custom interiors, Coyote and a few other typical amenities that are required a this price point. I say well sold at 160K. Really nice build though.

Seller must be in shock too. Didn't even post a driving video.

Take note all of you sellers, the photography pushed this one beyond it's value. There is a strong lesson about how to get top dollar here. This was a nice Bronco but not nearly as nice as many that have sold for far less. The seller did a great job marketing this one.

Knowing what I know now, first hand experience, I'd never buy a vehicle off of BaT. People paying that kind of money, sight unseen, have more money than sense. Plus, some of these that have sold on BaT, have any of them actually popped up on here by the buyers or are they being stored away never to see the light of day again?

I have no issue buying online as I have a good eye for what I am looking at. Many of these buyers obviously do not. I bought two recently on BAT and was pleasantly surprised that they were even better than what I expected at a good price. Just have your limits and if you don't have the experience, don't do it.

ngsd's comment above is solid gold and I agree. I've done it an it's all about expectations. In my case I was "pleasantly surprised" because my expectation was a notch lower. Just know your vehicle and expect "things."

Not going to be over for a long time. Almost every single person I know, and not just men the women too want an early Bronco.

Every time you think it is over another one says differently.

i wouldn't call this a normal build though... this is above Icon restomod status. Weren't we still seeing these crazy builds demand top dollar? Its the "inbetweeners" that are coming down... the builds between 50k-70k.

I’m convinced The only reason they want an early bronco is because everyone else wants one .

If there were still $8k for a nice one , none of the people who now want one , would want one .
