Expedition 80 For Sale!

price

Your price seems fair for a vehicle someone could purchase and immediately take off for Tierra del Fuego. It might help people understand the price if you estimate the cost of the extra equipment you added. And consider pricing it at $19,950. That price seems **so much** cheaper than $20K. Good luck with the sale!

Thanks Chip! I prefer to keep this in "The Expo Family" and the majority of folks know exactly what each and every mod costs! That part of our job as cult members! hehehehe

I am hoping to sell it to someone "in the know" so they understand the time and effort involved in this build!

Also, they will understand that all new bearings and seals are far more important then little pieces of plastic missing! :D :D :D

Eh, I am not in a rush to sell it, so if it sits for awhile that is fine with me! :26_7_2:

I say try and get what you think its worth. It will be tough to convince some that this 80 is worth more than the other built 80's at say 15K ish, but once you find the person who understands the quality of build this truck has I think it will sell.
Hold out and find the right buyer who appreciates her!!

Want to part out the rear left tail light bulb?
:oops:
Just kidding!

Well you asked. It seems like an insane price. I wish you the best of luck in getting it - but for a 93 80 with the mods listed it seems about 8-10k high.

I don't doubt that the truck is in excellent shape, but its not like someone is getting an 80 with these brand new shiny mods still in the box so they can install them from new.

Honestly - If I were you Id consider taking pics of the truck without the tent if its not included. As a potential shopper would see the ad - you don't want to scare someone away by conveying "kick *** truck - really high price - NO TENT NO TENT NO TENT - DONT ASK ABOUT REMOVING STUFF!"

If you revise the ad to remove away the "NOs" and "YOU CAN'Ts" and emphasise the good stuff the buyer will get - you should have a much better chance at the sale.

I hope you get it,cause that would give me hope if I ever sell mine. Between what I paid for it and what I've put into (not including maintainence), I'm pushing 25-30k.

Agree with ya 100%, but taking it on and off is a !@#!@# but next time its off, i will do that for sure!

No, i want to weed out the tire kickers and wheenies. I posted it for sale awhile ago before the repaint, etc... and i got DOZENS of emails from folks asking to buy this part and that part, etc.... I dont have time to deal with that. Its not being parted out, plain and simple. I agree with ya though and i do need some pics without the tent!

Ok, i toned down the "Abrasiveness" a bit! :D

I think at the moment the market for a well cared for, built 80 is good... I had four full price offers on mine. 20k might be a bit high for a 93, but the right buyer will not be worried about it and if that's the truck for him, so be it.

Thanks For The Feedback!

Maybe on paper, but my "93" has lower mileage and is MUCH better cared for then most of the 80's on the road today! That i am proud of! :D

Kevin,

The price is good considering your criteria. Mostly that you are patient. A higher priced, unique offering just needs the right buyer, which can take a while. Then again, I have had crazy custom vehicles sell the day I put the sign on them (usually people who already know me and the vehicle).

My truck will (most likely) be up for sale in the next 30-45 days.
