    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    Good looking ride. I do like that green, would be my 2nd choice after Calvary.

    Very nice. Think it will go for more than sticker?

    Good looking vehicle. My first thought was why bring a trailer?, but that is the name of a company. I would jump on it, but the price is too likely to be prohibitive.

    Looked at this initially this morning around 9:20. Had one bid for 25k. Now at 8:20pm it has a second bid for 25250. Something seems a little off about that time window and no bids. And odd that it doesn’t state anywhere after the bids that the reserve has not been met yet. One of the key points of an auction is bidding and being told that the reserve has not been met. And this is made
    Available to everyone not just the bidder. Seems a little funky.
    Unless there really is no reserve….

    Just posted this and looked back at the website. The third bid was placed immediately after the second bid. Seems to be a pay to bid system ie you show them you’re good for $X and the system auto bids for you to whatever your highest bid is. No thanks.

    BAT lists "no reserve" in the listing title if that's the arrangement.
    Otherwise it's a reserve auction. If the reserve is met during the auction there is no indication as such. The only way you know reserve is met is by the seller stating so in the comments.
    Used to be a pretty cool site that stayed somewhat true to it's name. They used to keep the number of running auctions @ 100 or less.
    Now they list just about anything and the number of running auctions seems to be @ 750.
    They will screen and/or remove most comments that don't support them. Also, prices are usually on the high side.
    You have to have a valid card on file and they pre-authorize your 5% bidder fee on your first bid per auction.
    For real collectors (not me) 5% capped at $5000 is a very good deal compared to the auction houses.
    A million $ car at BJ will cost you $100,000 auction fee.

    I wouldn't expect much serious bidding until the final minutes of the auction. Until then it will be a bunch of jabronis throwing out low-ball bids.
    Bring a Trailer will state "no reserve" in the title if that's the case.
    They do not have "automatic" bids; you need to place your bid manually each time. But you need to register with a valid payment method first, and they will put a temporary authorization on your card. BaT doesn't really care if you can afford the whole vehicle, they just collect the fee and it's up to the seller and buyer to work out payment for the vehicle.

    Not a chance. At that price point you might as well buy new, with miles in the single/double digits, a 3 year/36k mile warranty, 2 years of free service, etc. Assuming a dealer near interested parties sells at MSRP of course.
