The collector vehicle market enjoyed a banner year in 2025, with an exceptionally optimistic outlook heading into 2026. In this episode, Chris is joined by Brian Ellis, Co-Founder and CEO of Fourbie Exchange. Together, they discuss recent market performance and share their outlooks on the broader collector vehicle, truck, and 4x4 markets, including shifting marketplace dynamics and which trucks and 4x4s are emerging as winners, losers, and buying opportunities.

After several years of volatility and imbalance, the collector vehicle market has returned to a more stable footing, led by the truck and 4x4 segment. A record-breaking 2025, one that defied the typical fourth-quarter seasonal slowdown, has set the stage for a strong 2026. Our outlook remains optimistic as the market tilts back toward a seller’s advantage while still offering strategic value opportunities for buyers. Generational shifts continue to drive demand and values for trucks and 4x4s, positioning this segment as the new class of “blue-chip” collector vehicles.
