Do you fit the Ford demographic?

[ELKS1]

Sold my 77 Bronco and going to sell my 06 F150 to make room for the Bronco, but to say I’m a Ford fan is an understatement .

What are you working on there with the frame and axles? Modding the track width or caster/pinion angle on the axles?

So tell us more about the frame project?

69 Bronco frame off.
Just about to leave work... I'll post up more later.

I have had 17 Fords, so maybe I embody the exact Ford demographic? Selling to 18 F150 this week. 20 Ranger, 17 Explorer and 11 Edge are still I the driveway with other drivers

Curious as to what vehicle is being moved out of the garage or traded for your new Bronco(s)? Do you fit the Ford demographic? So I guess I'll start had a 2015 Jeep mall crawler hated it and traded it for a diesel Porsche Cayenne for the 7K towing. Bronco takes the Porsche garage spot. Porsche gets moved to the shop not much of a downgrade going to shop.

Show off!

What is Ford's demographic anyway? I think over half the vehicles I've driven regularly or purchased were Ford's, but as far as I can tell Ford has not traditionally had a stereotype for it's owners on the whole.

Maybe there are some stereotypes around particular models, but around the brand as a whole I can't think of any other than that the company has always been bigger in the states then abroad.

I should start a thread on one of the build pages....actually I think I may have a good while back! LOL
(Edit: I did! link )
Current status. Had a flurry of activity for 3 weeks back when Covid was shutting every thing down about this time last year. Been busy at work ever since.
Body is sitting on a hoe built carrier , tucked up right behind the house so the neighbors do not have to see it. LOL It's gonna need some work.

Looks great, a few quetions.

What is the frame damaged section, front frame horns for bumper?

Did you sandblast before paint?

Nice swap to disc brakes, what are they from?

Why the roller rocker arms?

Front frame horns had been welded to for a home built winch bumper.
PO had a bolted winch bumper &winch stolen, so he welded the new one in place.
1 Rear horn had been cut for some reason.

Did you sandblast before paint?
Yes. Epoxy primer, Southern Polyurethanes

Wildhorses Bronco supplier... I believe it uses GM parts. Bought the kit a long time ago.

I sure hope not.

Do you own Turkey Hill?

For me the Bronco will be a pure and completely unnecessary vehicle I don't need, but want. And I hope it'll inspire me to get out of town more often, get off the roads and explore somewhere out there, under the stars. Also seems like quite some fun backroads not too far, that I never explored, but always plan to when flying into the Bay Area and looking down.
I'll hold on to my 19 year old Tacoma though, it'll easy last an other 10 years with the amount of driving I actually have to do, vs want to do. The want will be on the Bronco, the have to will be the Taco, keep the battery charged and the gas exchanged.

By Ford demographic you mean over promise and under deliver? Na

Do you own Turkey Hill?

Nope, not associated to them in any way. I own a small security installation company.

If you know my whole story you wouldn’t have said that. I’m sorry it came across as like that. Stable is currently empty and a used Porsche was $27K. I’m proud of where I came from nothing and where I’ve been and the people I’ve lifted up on the way. Only to lose it all to my wife’s medical needs and start over the second time and being able to do it again. There is no other place in this world that you can do this, God Bless America!!

It will be replacing my old JK as my DD. I will miss this old car, she will be at at least 220k when I sell her off.

Wait, that can't be. So many here say Jeeps are crap, and don't last.

I'll be trading this JL for the Bronco. That is if I ever see my Bronco built. OP, I have been driving primarily Fords since 1986. Have two as DD's now.
