My brother from a different mother! My teenage ride was a 68 Newport convertible, 383 also!
Did all the same things with it. I remember coming home with one rear tire bald.😜 My Dad asked me "what happened"? I replied "could it be the alignment? He wanted to align my head.😯
Sometimes I feel bad...
I went down the "Optima" road once. I bought a blue top for my boat, it didn't make it a whole season.:mad:
I'm in my mid 60's now, bought all types of batteries for all types of machines, Optima was my worst experience with a battery by far.
It's amazing how much they beat on a "new" vehicle to disassemble.
I guess if they got a Gen 1 Bronco in the shop, they would break out the 20 lb. maw and just beat it to smithereens.
If it was true that would be the first thing to secure after an accident. I'm surprised he didn't add diamond jewelry and gold bars to what was missing.:rolleyes:
I should have taken the picture of the Bronco on what looked like 38's or 40's get stuck on the hill in the beginning of the sand course. More to do with driver error.
I'm so glad the rain held off until the afternoon.
The local weatherman here is saying afternoon showers.🤞
Communication for this event is almost non-existent. I had to lurk on a couple facebook pages to see what the schedule is.
I disagree. Keeping the tire OD the same, with a smaller rim OD you have more room on the side wall so when airing down the contact patch grows a little wider but also "longer".
For every increase in rim size on the same tire diameter the contact is being less when airing down.
17's have much more of a choice for tires. Anything above that you get pigeonholed into more heavy-duty tires for trucks.
And if you air down for a larger contact patch or flotation, smaller rim is the way to go.
I have some electric home/lawn care tools that work very well. An electric pressure washer isn't one of them.
That's just one of the things that I have found, a gas engine one does better.
When we bought our 2022 Bronco, Delaware will let you register it for up to 7 years.
I don't have go to the DMV or mess with a sticker until 2029.(y)
$1600 extra for a license plate?:unsure:
