Today I was doing some maintainence work on my blog, and ended up writing a little on why I love my Bronco. I'll just post a link to the page, as it think it's too long to post here. Otherwise, I'll move the text into the forum.

Why do I keep my Bronco?

 

it is a good bumper car when drunk

 

Because I feel like the king of the road up so hi looking down on all these pitiful honda and other rice burners

 

After reading your article, I must say HOLY CRAP! but then again, I have had my share of issues, but mine has never left me stranded. I did replace the motor and tranny at 175K just cause I wanted the the 50kmiles/3yr warranty that went with it. I lost the yoke on my rear driveshaft about 15 miles from home...but it held up at speeds of 20mph or less until I got it home. I have taken it through snow and mud and off roading obstacles that others couldn't make it through. I have at one point, (March of 2003), during a big blizzard, pulled a Pontiac Aztec that was chained to an old Dodge ram 4x4 through about 4ft of snow. The dodge busted a drive shaft. I could go on and on with some of the stories of the things that the ol girl went through and put up with, but then I might as well write a novel. Unfortunately, when I bought my F150, I took the Bronco into the shop for a restoration. As the work was getting closer to completion, there were all sorts of frame issues found that would never be repaired good enough....so she went for parts. I am now looking though for another.
