What to know about as-is sale sales in Wyoming
Include explicit "as-is" language in the bill of sale. Under UCC § 2-316(3)(a), writing "as-is" or "with all faults" in the contract effectively disclaims all implied warranties, including the implied warranty of merchantability under UCC § 2-314. Still disclose known material defects — concealing known defects can constitute fraud even in an as-is sale.
What to include in your bill of sale
- Full legal names and addresses for both buyer and seller.
- ATV make, model, year, VIN, and current mileage.
- Agreed sale price, payment method, and transaction date.
- Any as-is sale-specific disclosures required in Wyoming.
Seller guidance
Include explicit "as-is" language in the bill of sale. Under UCC § 2-316(3)(a), writing "as-is" or "with all faults" in the contract effectively disclaims all implied warranties, including the implied warranty of merchantability under UCC § 2-314. Still disclose known material defects — concealing known defects can constitute fraud even in an as-is sale.
Buyer guidance
An as-is sale gives you no recourse for undisclosed defects after closing. Order a pre-purchase inspection from a licensed mechanic before agreeing to price. Review any known issue list the seller provides and get it in writing.
Legal considerations
UCC § 2-316 governs warranty disclaimers. The phrase "as-is" must appear conspicuously in the written agreement. Note: Louisiana does not follow the UCC for vehicle sales; redhibition law may still impose seller liability. Some states (e.g., Maine, Massachusetts) impose additional consumer protections that limit as-is sales to dealers only.
Wyoming Legal Requirements
As-is clauses are generally enforceable in private party vehicle sales under UCC § 2-316. However, most states carve out an exception for fraud: a seller who actively conceals or misrepresents a known defect cannot rely on the as-is language as a shield. Best practice is to provide a written disclosure of all known defects alongside the as-is bill of sale.
