  1. Bronco room for child car seats?

    I thought it was going to be photos of a bronco-themed room as well. :ROFLMAO: Too far from my car-seat situating days I guess Nate
  2. My new air fresheners

    nice! Here's my pick
  3. The raison d'être for the Bronco and the existential threat to Chrysler Jeep

    Nice summary. Thanks. Some thoughts: 1) Competition will be good for automakers and will be great for consumers. 2) The Bronco is not an existential threat to Chrysler. 3) Chrysler is an existential threat to Chrysler. Nate
  4. August 1st + No Build and Price = Apocalypse?

    jeez man, you're more correct than you may think. Apocalypse derives from the Greek apo (un) and kaluptein (cover). It means "uncover." When the build tool is released, and crashes briefly, and then goes back online, prices will be revealed (uncovered). Thus it will be literally (and for...
  5. FORD stamp on the tailgate

    vinyl decal?
  6. Getting leather seats wet - how bad is it?

    yes, back then everyone was excited about soft Corinthian leather :ROFLMAO: "Oddly enough, the first Chrysler product to be equipped with the automaker’s famed (but utterly fictitious) “Corinthian leather” was the 1974 Imperial LeBaron. But nobody remembers that. Instead they recall the...
  7. FORD stamp on the tailgate

    It seems to be part of a conscious decision to emphasize Bronco (hence no FORD on the grill, either) as a stand-alone brand. Having FORD appear on the sliding tailgate--a hidden item which needs no adornment--in the same font, same spacing, same side, same size, IS the tribute to the past and...
  8. Have a name / nickname for your Bronco?

    she being Brand -new;and you know consequently a little stiff I was careful of her and (having thoroughly oiled the universal joint tested my gas felt of her radiator made sure her springs were O. K.)i went right to it flooded-the-carburetor cranked her up,slipped the clutch (and then...
  9. Let’s talk front license plate

    Though required by law, I couldn't do it on this: But I will on the Bronco. Probably. Almost definitely. We'll see.
  10. Wisconsin Roll Call

    Not a native but graduated from UW-Madison and met my wife here. We bounced around the states and abroad then moved back about 9 years ago. We're content for now, mostly :). I reserved an FE and also a Wildtrack. We'll see which way things go once the builder is online and final pricing Is...
  11. First Edition Bronco Will Have Navy Pier Interior Option Only

    And we're arriving at acceptance. This thread is 28 pages of validation for the Kubler-Ross stages of grief.
  12. Arm Out the Window - How Does it Score?

    No snark. This may be the most interesting thing I've read here yet. Here's a guy who's chief concern when buying a new vehicle is whether or not he can comfortably rest his arm on the open window sill. Toystwo, would you cancel the purchase of your Bronco should it be a bad fit? Is the...
  13. Have a name / nickname for your Bronco?

    I'm sorry Razorback.
  14. First Edition Bronco Will Have Navy Pier Interior Option Only

    sorry, but I'm not sure that black will hide much of anything. It'll show dirt, dust, scratches, scuffs. swirls, bird crap, bird crap residue, water marks, and, should you lay a coat of wax in it now and then, any extra wax stuck in seams. It's easily the least forgivable car color. Granted, it...
  15. Have a name / nickname for your Bronco?

    It'll be The Bronco. The only vehicle I've ever owned which had a name outside of it's actual brand or model was a 1984 Renault 5 which I kind of lovingly and ironically called the Silver Hornet. I bought that pos for 100 pounds whilst in medical school south of London. There was no bill of...
  16. Why didn't Ford offer rolling rear window?

    If the rear window was part of the tailgate, and rolled up and down, the interface between window and removable top (one fixed, the other less fixed) would be prone to instability leading to window breakage and/or leakiness. A possible solution would to have the window hinge inward and still...
  17. Thoughts on Key Fob?

    I'll go half-way there with you icavedin. I would love an actual key for starting a car, or, even inserting and turning a key, and then hitting a START button (Ă  la my old s2000). But I'm not mourning the gradual extinction of key holes on doors. Nate
  18. Thoughts on Key Fob?

    I could. Sometimes I do. If I'm driving home I'll leave the fob in the Jeep in my garage.
  19. Built in the USA-How important is it for you?

    Back in the early 1990's when Acura was building the first NSX, I recall a story about how Honda moved employees with 20+ years experience to the NSX assembly line. Does anyone know if anything similar happened with US companies? The Continental comes to mind as a possibility. Do employees "move...
  20. Built in the USA-How important is it for you?

    Don't forget the Fanta 2000GT. Had you picked up one of those particular soda cans around 1969, it'd be exchangeable for a million dollar lake home. Nate
