The dealers are just starting to get their demos of the full size Bronco. See if you can find one in your area and take her to check them out. Before going point out all those features listed and again while you're there. If you say it enough times pretty soon she'll be asking you to order one. ??
Great idea!
It was enough to get her to convert her to Ford. Not sure how far I’ll get with Bronco subliminal messaging. ?
She did like the toy-box prototype display we saw a few months ago. Might be time to get creative.
Co-enabling is strong in this forum. I like it. ?The dealers are just starting to get their demos of the full size Bronco. See if you can find one in your area and take her to check them out.

Those are actually fighting words in this house. ?Two words...

As Dave (@AzScorpion ) has seen me post before, this is 50th anniversary year for wife and I, so we are way over 51 years knowing each other (whirlwind romance)Those are actually fighting words in this house. ?
Bought in 2011. Meticulously maintained. V6 engine with 6 speed transmission. Dated styling and not as fuel efficient as my wife would like. Recent job and residence change puts her at 50 miles a day travel, as opposed to the 6 miles a day last year.Dang. In your shoes I would’ve done a LOT to make the Bronco work out. Though I understand about not getting to test drive and issues with availability. Now if only my wife said she wanted one!
What was the issue with the Edge?
What's with the "herd" mentality of 30 vehicles driving nose to tail, you doing the same thing the other 30 guys are doing? Kind of like driving on the highway... with better scenery.
Then it evolved into shops building rigs for non mechanically inclined folks to go 4 wheeling. OK, well at least most of the folks driving them could at least change a spare tire if need be.
But I'm pretty sure the herd mentality is because Biff and Buffy rented a rig, or bought a factory rig, and go out onto public lands and haven't got a clue as to what they are doing or how to fix anything if it gets broken. So they team up with 58 of their closest friends and become a 1/2 mile caravan of a dust cloud moving through public lands. Herd mentality, that's it exactly.
That's what I want to know! Lol!when did the sticker guy finally figure out how to apply them with pride?
They make those? Hmmm...Only with her personal customizations she chooses. That gets them every time. Popup dash mirrors in park are a huge draw…
Your last sentence is probably right, different times had different "fun".What's with the "herd" mentality of 30 vehicles driving nose to tail, you doing the same thing the other 30 guys are doing? Kind of like driving on the highway... with better scenery.
But I fondly remember a time, when you saw an outrigged / lifted 4x4, that you knew the guy standing there is the guy that built it. As a designer / fabricator, I could respect that. Go talk to them about their rig, learn a lot and maybe share some stuff you've learned. Good times.

This same scenario keeps playing out, time and time again. Motorcycles are a good example, Hot Rods and Muscle Cars too. Times have evolved from motorhead / gearheads / hot rodders building and driving their home built stuff to "Forest Gump drives a Bronco at the Roadeo"
Cool rig can I ask you about _____
"I don't know, I bought it that way""I don't know, I had a shop install it""Run Forrest Run"
I don't get it at all. We're hikers and love the tranquility of being out in the forest / wilderness, where you can enjoy the peace and quiet of nature.
Why do I care then about folks 4 wheeling? I don't if it's just a few. Why is that? From my hiking experiences, in these high traffic herd mentality trail areas on public lands, many in the herd are throwing out litter, defecating and defacing, and treading in areas where they shouldn't even be driving.
Ranger5g.com has changed drastically in 2 years. Because the 2019 Rangers were new, most of the posts here were about modifications being done by owners, or little Mom and Pop shops, or folks working through issues and learning about our new "Rangers".
Now it's evolved into, "hey gang look at these folks all following each other in nearly identical new vehicles" -or- 250 folks sharing photo's of how their Dee Zee damper fits.
Hey HenryMac, the 60's / 70's called, they want you to come back.
Rant Over.
Sorry it may be because I'm old but the new Broncos look like shit in my opinionhttps://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/off-roadeo-texas-report-lots-of-photos.18722/
These guys are making us look old.
And we dont care that you dont know how to drive a manual.It's not a story, and you are not my bro....
