Does anyone here know of anyone buying these or are they going to dealers? A couple times now I’ve watched them sell for ~$25k and the same VIN is on a dealer lot the next weekend for ~$35k.

Are individuals actually buying these or only dealers? I've watched two now in the last couple months that were purchased for ~$25k wind up used car lots for ~$35k. I've made a hobby of watching these the last few years but have never purchased ones.

Thanks, "Retired BLM Rig" for keeping this going. One of these days I might find a good truck this way.

That 2015 in Yuma looks a little rough from the photos....
There were 2 of them almost identical in our area a couple years back; Federal game wardens had them and they were in good condition.

I wonder what they do on GSA auctions when "Reserve not met"??

Well it looks like they relisted it and probably lowered the reserve price: https://gsaauctions.gov/gsaauctions/auc ... CI21276405
It is rough, has high milage and is missing parts. If I was in the market for one right now... I would hold out for something better.

Has anyone here actually purchased one of these lately? My suspicion is they're all going to dealers.

This one has a lot of issues, which might make it appealing to the person that has the skills to fix it. A 2015 in Ajo, AZ.

Or there's this one that needs body work to repair a cracked bed and replace a missing center console. A 2016 in Palm Springs, CA.

Or if you really want a lot of work, how about this. A 1970 in Ft. Duchesne, UT.

$7k+ for that gray one with half the harness torn apart, no rear door panels, dents on nearly every panel and 120k miles!?
