These nice-looking rigs are pretty capable, too.
Big Meet
Vaughn Gittin Jr. - who's known for driving all sorts of rigs in various motorsports competitions ranging from drifting to off-road racing - is also the purveyor of RTR, a company that makes visual and performance upgrades for Blue Oval models of all sorts, including the Mustang and F-150, as well as the Bronco. Recently, the folks at Charrons Wheelin Adventures got to scope out some of these cool rides up close as they headed out to Uwharrie, North Carolina for a little wheeling.
All Ages Welcome
With the help of the folks at RTR/Fun Haver, the first-ever Broncos at Uwharrie event turned out to be a pretty big success. While it was obviously dominated by sixth-gen models, Broncos of all ages were welcome, and a few classic SUVs showed up to show off as well.
Inside Look
Of course, Gittin Jr. was keen to show off his wares and brought out a handful of RTR-equipped rigs for everyone to drool over. Perhaps the coolest part of the journey - save for the trails - was a tour of RTR's facilities nearby, giving participants an inside look at that particular operation.
Wide Variety
Once that was finished, participants were able to snag selfies with Gittin Jr. himself before everybody headed out to the nearby trails to strut their stuff. What's particularly cool about this footage is the fact that this group doesn't just consist of heavily modified rigs either - there are plenty of stock ones showing off as well.
Diverse Trails
Uwharrie is a large chunk of real estate with some very diverse trails and obstacles to conquer, as we can see in this short clip. That includes a pretty big rock that the Broncos were able to climb with no problem, showing off their off-road prowess in the process.
New Experiences
It's also a very scenic way to drive through the woods and test out one's abilities, a proper escape from the grind of the concrete jungles that many of us live in. But perhaps the best part of this particular outing is that many new friendships were forged along the way, too.
Growing Hobby
This may have been the first gathering of Broncos at Uwharrie, but it most certainly won't be the last. It will also eventually be joined by many similar events centered around the Bronco, which is steadily gaining favor among those that like to spend their weekends out on the trails.
