WOW!! And here I was thinking people asking 20k for a low mileage 2nd gen had bumped their head.

It says selling price at auction was $50,500.

People have lost their minds.

In todays world cost/money no longer matters, it is self indulgence that counts!

More money than sense for sure... I think people also get wrapped up in the BaT hype and think if its on there its something special... maybe 4yrs ago, but I think they've lower their standards.. I've seen Broncos go for crazy money too, not worth it, not even close

Summer of 18 I paid 15k for this 01 Sport with 123k original owner miles. That was a lot for sure but now with it having around 150k I bet i could get 20k for it.

I wanted this truck with a 6 speed but all I could find was junk or short beds so I settled with the auto and have been very happy with it.

Nice shape for sure but I'm skeptical of 5500 miles. Age shows were different than use. The wear I see is caused from more than 5500 miles. The guy farther down made the statement that the buyer "stole it", that he had someone offer 90k for a similar truck...yeah right.
So if any one of you are drooling, just a reminder...I have a 2001.5 H.O. Sport with NV5600, well kept, about 150,000 miles. I'll take $100k, if you twist my arm I'll drop to $50k.

Here is a picture of my 2001.5 Laramie SLT taken in 2002 with OEM Michelin LTX tires without raise white lettering. So I think the tires have been changed out.

Prob has a lift kit, exhaust stacks and a chromed drivetrain by now

I would hope so. I wouldn’t want to drive it to McDonald’s on 20+ year old Michelins.

1998.5 - 20K Miles, was in Mint condition when my buddy bought it 5 Months ago, we added the steps and the fender flares and some technical stuff to it.

Was also 40 Grand in Switzerland to get it. But worth every cent.

Too much! $20000 more than I paid for a brand new '01.
