Am I the only one?

Not all Broncos are born with bash plates; many just have splash guards.

Yeah, those are plastic. I think the gas tank is just the gas tank. Maybe. But that's not the stock OEM plates. They're definitely steel and don't look like that.

Edit: I think the one with the white tag on it might be the front steel plate? Maybe. But the others don't look like the steel plates I got on my 23 BL.

Here are my front and engine plate when I was doing the rack:

I think the washer and dryer have seen more abuse than the skid plate tbh

I was knocking on the gas tank skid and have questions...

Yup, it is just the gas tank. Can still see the factory straps holding it up. No skid plate on the tank at all there. (Which is normal for most trims, and fantastic for fuel thieves)

I spend my time lurking these forums and then run out and look at my Bronco when I think "That can't be right..." or "I could get a pic of that for this dude!"

There are no marks from "correcting" that skid with a sledgehammer even!!!

Is this the "Watcha Drinkin' While Bronco Dreaming" thread?

*delicious, btw, but I'm not going anywhere near my Bronco or some Ring camera's gonna call the cops on me.

Great! One more thing to add to the list.

It was a long time between vehicles that I *really* wanted to buy. For most of my 30s and 40s I just drove practice vehicles across the freeways of SoCal, which isn’t much fun no matter you’re driving. But finally I’ve escaped, to the Utah mountains, on a farm, and I love (again) having a purpose-built, fun, beautiful little/big Bronco.
