Over the past couple weeks I've been looking to buy a Bronco II. I've seen and drove a couple in person, and was very close to buying one this weekend.
But just today I saw a new listing for a '88 Eddie Bauer that looked in excellent shape. After talking to the owner, I found out he's owned it since '91, which is a big plus over the other couple I've thought about buying. I had a good feeling that it was very very well taken care of.
It has 160k miles, and claims everything works well... The exterior and interior both look exceptional for a 20+year old vehicle.
Anyways, he's asking $3750 for it, and it is a ~4 hour drive for me to go pick up (200 miles). I'm thinking about making an offer for 3400 and committing to a long drive up there. I've always wanted this model, so I'm pretty excited about it, but didn't want my emotions to cloud good judgment. Is this a reasonable price, assuming everything he told me is true?
