After comming from Chevy land i figured rust sucked.


Now im in love with my truck, and after spending every weekend for the last month working on it religiously, rust has become a part of me it seems like.

Hey Dude_Zilla,
You're comparing a Bronco vs a Pick Up, or apples vs oranges, lots of folks want to own a Bronco just because they're uniquely uncommon while neat at the same time.

Another factor There's no accounting for human tastes where Aesthetics are involved. Folks pick what strikes their fancy simply because it does strike their fancy, if ya catch my drift there. Reason doesn't enter into the "head function" equation it would seem. . . .
