    good deal?

    I have a 86 Ford Bronco that i have been trying to sell. The highest offer I got on it was 900. A guy emailed me and asked if i would trade the bronco for an 86 350x and an 85 250sx. They both run and are in good looking condition. Do you think its a good deal.

    Yes, snatch them up.
    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is the same as calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.

    I would say for sure. If the 350X is in good condition, it's usually worth it alone. Take a look on Ebay for some of the prices that 350x's are going for on there. Also, an 86' is pretty desirable from what I gather. I also have both and they are both great trikes. Although, my 350X is an 85'. definitely check out Ebay and see what they go for and decide from there. May also want to get a few more opinions too. Just my opinion though...

    if they are both in pretty good shape i would do it, you could prob sell one of them for at least 1k so you could def get ahead if offers arent coming on the bronco. i would go for it.

    where are you located?

    Wow, now there is a decision I hope I never have to make.. My favorite suv is 1986 FSB and I would NEVER get rid of the 86 I have. Yet trikes rate as high on my list. I guess it depends on how bad you want to get rid of your bronco. 2 trikes for a 4X4 suv? Sound like they are in good condition though.. And resale for the trikes should be pretty good to that is if you ever part with them.

    Sounds like a good deal to me. Hell, I'll trade my '95 Explorer for a 350x and a 250sx!

    the bronco needs alot of work. The biggest thing it needs is a tranny.

    No brainer. You will be making out pretty good and you can get that back with probably selling off one of them. Good luck!!

    being a car dealer for 15 years..this is a no brainer. for what a tranny would cost you to get the bronco reliable would more than likely cost more than it's worth. bronco's are dime a dozen and usually ones that year never bring over a grand unless they are restored or unique..you could part the trikes out and still come out farther ahead if you sold it outright..

    As the kiddies say, OMG! Yeah, if it needs a tranny and the guy is still willing to do it, RUN to his place and do the swap now, before he changes his mind!
