  • Comments:

    I used to ride in the back of the Bronco for our family camping and water ski trips.  I learned how to drive in the Bronco (in 4 wheel drive!) when I was 14 on one of these camping trips.  It became mine in 1985 and now my boys love riding in it.

    After the paint job the Bronco got its Gumby mascot on the grill since the color is so similar.

    If it’s not fun then you are not doing it right
