It really is amazing. I’ve been taking note of this recently. Every Jeep or Bronco is driven by a woman. I’d guess they are both 80% + driven by women these days.

Hell is just a little less than what i sold my first house for 30 years ago abs it’s worth almost 300k right now, what’s that wagoneer going to be worth in 5 or 10 years. 100k cars are like advertising your an financial idiot.

The new Jeep dealers are the only ones that seem to have inventory.

my wife’s 2012 JK just turned 225K all I’ve done is replace the clutch. 6-speed and the pentastar engine has been a major success after the lawn mower engine it replaced.

waiting to go get my new gladiator this month. I’ll never buy another make/model again. Jeep Wrangler is the best bang for your auto buck

Difference is what’s that Expedition worth compared to the original purchase price? The 2012 Jeep will probably be able to be sold for the same amount that he bought it for.

Jeep prices have been high for as long as Incan remember and will remain high for several reasons, but all demand related. Many well-off people use them as a third vehicle. They are also used by many as a primary vehicle that, when compared to other primary vehicle costs, are not overly expensive.

I have had three Wrangler and always sold them for more than I paid for them. The last one I sold for $3500 more than I paid a later about a year of owning it and hardly ever using it. One of the few vehicles outside of classics that hold value or can appreciate. On the used market. This is not new, though.

quality / price combo

quality is there
price is high but so is resale
cost of ownership is low
ownership satisfaction is very high

if you can live without driving around in a living room it’s your best bet

The demand is there to support the outrageous prices.
Similarly old Bronco prices are insane.
