Thanks for the welcome.... and thanks to the mods for the ROTW...
Long time Ford owner...

I purchased my Bronco when I totaled my '05 F150... That's my wife's '06 GT in the background, which we still have. My wife works at Villa Ford dealership in Orange.... yeah we're a Ford Family...

Love the Big Bronco!

Bring it out to the chapter get-together on April 14th at El Dorado Park in Long Beach and meet a lot of us all at the same time. Bring the family, too. It's a fun time!

Welcome to FTE and the SoCal chapter.
We were just a coin flip away from getting the Saleen....but the employee price on the GT was too good to pass up.
