"DON'T TOUCH MY BRONCO!"

[broncobase1]

Oh how we point out that speck in someone else's eye when we have a two by four in our own!

How about another history lesson! Aunt Jemima was a real person Nancy Green, born a slave circa 1843. After she was freed in her early twenties she worked as a nanny and a nurse for a wealthy physician. She moved to Chicago circa 1859 and was hired by the Davis milling company where she became a spokeswoman for the company and her role as Aunt Jemima. It is reported the famous pancake recipe marketed by Davis was Green's own recipe adapted to ready mix. Nancy Green used her AJ fame to do good. She was a founding member of Chicago's largest Baptist church. She served as a missionary, antipoverty and equal rights advocate. At the time of her tragic death at age 89, she was still working as AJ and the spokeswoman for Quaker Oats. Far from a slave, she was a real life American hero who spent her life doing good. They removed what is probably the first ever black female product spokeswoman and civil rights activist from pancake labels! Display that AJERIMA license plate with pride, she was a real life American hero.

Imagine coming to a Bronco site and actually learning somethings, besides not touching another owners Bronco

Aunt Jemima sounds like the kind of person to respect another’s property and not just go about touching it

Just, wow. Only on 6g can we go from a dealership story about upright Bronco owners to a debate about the origins of Aunt Jemima. Un-f'n-believable

When I was a young buck working at a Chrysler/Plymouth dealer in the early ‘70’s we didn’t call them porters, we called them shaggers.

This thread went from bad to depraved. Some people can't keep their grubby mitts off other people's property and can't stop wanting to treat other people like property.

How this thread started…
And how it ended…

Did you not read, I was asking permission, I didn't actually touch it.

You said you reached for his door !

I just got back from getting my Bronco serviced at the dealership. After seeing both of the porters who moved my Bronco slam it's door behind them while walking away, and one of them moved another owner's Bronco and did the same right in front of me. So I politely called the guy over and asked him if he was aware of the frame less windows and that the windows go down and up when you open and close the doors? And, we was engaged in a conversation with the porter, who was polite and generally interested comparing the Bronco's frame less window with the Jeep's framed windows that had he just drove too.

The owner of the Bronco that we were standing next to, walked by at the same time, he seemed to be smiling at what I was telling the porter and I asked him "Do you mind if I show him (the porter) what I mean?" To my surprise as I reached for the door he says, "Yea! I mind! DON'T TOUCH MY Bronco!" And Then goes from smiling at us to looking back with a glare.

Really! I wanted to call out to the guy who's about half my age and ask him, "do you know how many people are gong open and close your Bronco's door while it's being moved around and serviced?" But I said nothing, even after the stare down he tried to throw back.

The porter than remarked "Yea every time he comes in his Bronco [a black Badlands] is spotless clean and it looks like he never takes it off road." Then joked about how many Broncos come in and look to have never been taken off road, asking "why these owners buy and never go off pavement at all?" He then comment on how dirty mine was before he washed it and pointing out my stickers, which are just some of my outings, "Yours is always dirty when you come in".

After the kid walked away, we joked about mall crawlers and uptight owners. I mean if I was some rando off the street, I'd get the attitude about not touching it, but a fellow Bronco owner and an old guy too, trying to educate a porter on how to better take care of "Your Bronco" to not damage it?

My wife still slams the door ! Get over it !

I'm late to this fun thread. Can't say I've read every post. Reminded me of the vintage car hobby (even though a new Bronco is nothing even close).
