Last night i pulled my first truck out of the mud. Of course i dont have to mention it was a Chevy and the Bronco had no problem at all. Then just to rub it in i went through the spot where he got stuck in reverse. Man i love my Bronco.
Sounds like ME!! Been there done that! All my buddys that are Chevy guys went to Tuttle Creek Off Road Park in Kansas, and my 83 bronco (which you can see in the gallery) built 460, 36in tsl, pulled out lifted Chevy with 44s and a hydralocked chevy with 38.5. But my FORD never got stuck!!!!!! Just got drunk.
Reminds me of a recent conversation I had with someone who proceeded to lambast my Blue Oval beast with the typical "Found On Road Dead", Fix Or Repair Daily" comments. My response was that as Ford owners, we are far too busy lending assistance to the Chevy owners who can't seem to keep going to think up silly acronyms for "Chevrolet"... besides, why bother, you drive a vehicle named after and FRENCHMAN!... no wonder it fails in the face of a real challenge.
Not even continuing the joke right now, but everyone around my area farms or hauls something and everyone has a Ford. One of my freinds farms and he gets a new truck every 4 years and he pounds the hell out of them, one year he decieded to change things up and try a chevy instead of ford. Well door panels started falling off, tail gait latch, falling in to peices in 1 year. It's reasons like that why I'll never buy a GM vehical.
Also greystreak, like the joke about chevy being named after a frenchman(didn't know that).
Louis Chevrolet was the man who started the company long before GM ever existed. Give you an idea just how adept he was, he engineered three fortunes and still managed to die penniless. (He sold the car-making company to the Automobile Association of America which later became General Mistake...er um... General Motors.) The Chevy "bowtie" was the shape of an image that shown on the wall of his coldwater apt through a hole in the shade! He thought it was cool and decided to make it the company icon. The word Chevrolet is French. I mean who else puts a "T" at the end of a word and then DOESN'T pronounce it!
Just a little trivial info. You may ask why a Ford enthusiast knows this about Chevrolet... well the more you know about the competition, the better equipped you are to come out on top.
according to Wikipedia he was Swiss, although that doesn't do him anymore favours than being French!!! He moved to France in later life - it must have been a hard life in Switzerland to even consider France an improvement! I would have though Iraq etc. would have been a better choice for safety of ones reputation.
