Admit it, your rig is a "mall crawler"...

Here is a shot of me at the mall--this store specializes in wild blue berries and raspberries. A couple more shots of me driving to the meat store where they specialize in deer and partridge

No $h!t!!! Pollen season is about over here finally. Black is beautiful but definitely not the friendliest to keep clean!

Your ride is bada$$!

I feel your pain. That’s why I was not going to get a Bronco in black.

My other two cars are black as is my girlfriend’s car.

They are clean for about 10 minutes. Even if they’re just sitting there.

I always say, black isn’t a color. It’s a relationship if you are OCD about keeping it clean.

It's very Oregon that your Bronco model is "undecided." It's great looking though- congrats and have fun!

HAHAHA so true!

LMAO! I about spit my drink out! Don't forget about swirl marks and you cannot run black through a carwash. That's like child abuse! My boats were named "OCD Overload" if that tells you anything and one of my license plates was "OCD 388" (388 was the boat model) lol. I even wash the frame, axles and everything on this one. Now that it just sits in the garage I only have to dust it and put detailer on it lol.

I have always had black trucks. Wife says "why do you keep doing that to yourself". I like self inflicted punishment. SO I bought a maroon Trail Boss... guess what, just as damn dirty!

My cars only get hand washed. Air dried with a blower.

I had ceramic infused PPF applied to the full body of my Cactus Grey Bronco to help with keeping it clean and protect it from chips and light scratches. Although that color does a better job at hiding dirt.

It’s just a Big Bend 2.3/Auto with some Sasquatch take-offs installed and a few goodies like the drawer-trunk system and some proper speakers…and a touch of Old School “branding”…

Paid $42K in 2023…New…walked in to the dealer and said,”I’ll pay sticker…or… NOT!” I’ve bought quite a few vehicles from the dealer that had it….and they had 10 Broncos when I rolled up

From the Eastern Sierra to chasing during Baja races…this little rig has proven to be the best lil’ rig I’ve had this side of my ‘67 Bronco P/U.

living by the beach and goin’ to Baja…a lot…makes good use of “The Drop Top”.

And all the Raptor peeps at Baja HQ call it my “Mall Crawler” or “Orange County Grocery Getter”

The Bronco's my work truck. That includes duty on the job site and to the mall.

Not In her natural habitat.

I will be the first to admit it. My 24 WT is a mall crawler. Its just too damn pretty to get dirty. I wash it once a week whether it needs it or not...LOL. The underside literally looks like it came off the line yesterday. I'm not ashamed to say that I'm very hesitant to take it off roading.

Breaking that seal and getting the entire underside filthy plus the rest of the truck - makes me a bit uncomfortable. Especially considering how much this damn thing was lol. Lets hear from some more mall crawlers, let us know why you don't/wont offroad yours.

I will also refuse to admit that!! These are just after it's first ceramic crowning!

 

[demos1970]

Heresy. I will admit no such thing.

Awe look. It’s taking a nap. It also found a great spot.

I can't classify mine as a "Mall Crawler", only because I don't go to malls, but I will admit that it is a "Pavement Princess" for sure.

it was that useless rooftop tent that raised your CG

Yes, but it looked really cool at Starbucks.

I was just thinking about this the other day regarding my JL Rubi. Arguably the most capable of the five Wranglers I've owned over 25+ years, yet has seen the least (i.e. none) real off roading compared to the rest.

I primarily use it as a tractor (pulling small stumps, etc.) more than anything outside driving it to work instead of my F150. And it's less work to keep it cleanish.

In all fairness, the front solid axle drives on road about as good as a John Deere, so it has significant similarities!
