Cool video
The other day I found a promotional video that was sent to the dealerships in 1988 explaining all of the advantanges of the 1989 F150s and Broncos.
It's pretty cool, they do a walk-around of each model and go on about how they stack up against the competition. During one scene, they whack a headlight with a hammer to show how the lens are "unbreakable" Then they go smack this Chebby and the glass shatters all over the place. The guy smiles, and says "want to see that again?" so they show over and over about 4 times.
It was neat to see all of the virtues of my truck on screen. The EB version they showed looked just like mine.

I got it off of ebay for four bucks! They seemed to have bunch of stuff like that when I checked the seller's other auctions.
I'm a little leary about hitting my headlights as well, sure wish I had seen that when the donor Bronco was here.
Another thing that kinda suprised me, they showed a Bronco pulling a full-sized tavel trailer (well over 20'), and said it could easily haul up to 7700 pounds when properly equipped. Does that seem right?

hey- about those yellowed headlights....it's nothing a little plastic polish can't help. I polished mine with some stuff a buddy of mine uses to polish lenses on his fleet cars at SWT's police department and it took the yellow out. Apparently they yellow is on the outside.
