1995 Ford Bronco Sport Utility 2D $23,900 is it worth it?

Man, I can do so much more with $24K

For 24k, you could buy a beat-up one and fix it up for less.

I’ll sell you mine for $9500. It’s not as shiny but it runs and drives great and is set up for off-roading. You could spend the extra cash on a custom paint job or a lot of beer.

I’m in Washington state. Shipping by car carrier should cost around $500 to $1500 depending on the company.

I’m interested, can you send me some pictures?

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Looks like I won’t be overpaying for this one!

The truck looks great, but $24K is a bit much unless it’s a 1st gen or a mint Centurion. I’d offer $14K for how clean it looks but wouldn’t go above $15K. It’s only 27 years old, not really a ‘classic’ yet. Plus, any sun damage drops the value.

@Shiloh
I agree. $24k is too high, especially when ‘all original’ often means you’ll have a lot of maintenance to do soon. That said, there are definitely mint 2nd and 3rd gen Broncos that can sell for $40-$50k.

@Ori
Just because someone is willing to pay $50K doesn’t make it worth that. Rich people overpay all the time. I’ve got a couple of 3rd gens and an '84 XLT that was $9K back in the day, which would be about $25K now with inflation.

@Shiloh
Actually, that’s exactly how worth is determined—by what people are willing to pay. If something sells for $50K, then it’s worth $50K. Whether it’s a car, phone, house, or anything, that’s how pricing works. We’re not living in 1984 anymore, and old stuff wasn’t as expensive back then, even with inflation.

@Ori
I calculated the inflation, and that’s how $9K became $25K. If I bought an overpriced house for $800K today, and then tried to sell it, any buyer would compare it to similar properties selling for $150K. The point is, price doesn’t always reflect value.

Edit: New Broncos aren’t the same as old ones—they’ve got modern, expensive parts. With old Broncos, you’re dealing with outdated components unless you’ve replaced everything. Even then, fully restored ones usually go for $25K or less.

@Shiloh
If there are tons of people willing to pay $800K for a house, then yes, it’s worth that. We live in different times now. There’s huge demand for classic Broncos and not enough supply. That’s why the new Broncos are selling for much more than the sticker price.

Asking way too much for this.

I wouldn’t pay anywhere near that for an OBS. Clean truck though. Maybe $10K if you’re really into this body style?

Too expensive for this generation, I think.

I paid $2,500 for my '90. Can’t imagine spending this much when you could get a newer car that uses less gas.

If it had 50K original miles, maybe you could justify the price. I got my '88, which was almost perfect, for $11K last year, and it had fewer miles.
