I didn't spend the night up there but I tested it out and it felt pretty darn nice... It certainly wouldn't be convenient if you had a bit to drink before you crashed.

lmao, yeah true true....

Great way to save space though... looked like fun

Just took a trip up to West Virginia to hang with some buddies. One of which has an early bronco that I havent see since high school. Its a 74 ginger ranger. He cut the fenders in high school. :( ... Gonna head back up in a few weeks to try and help him get it back on the road. We did some backpacking and I drove some froest roads and some 4x4 trails on my own out in the middle of nowhere. Driving 20 miles in the woods on rough roads with multiple creek crossings and hill climbs is kind of nerve racking when there is no service the entire way. It sure would have been a long walk out but the Bronco behaved fantastic. I did get some trash in my carb after all that bouncing around and had to do a quick jet clean before I could head home. I've put nearly 3000 miles on this thing in the past month and a half and I've loved every minute of it.

More pics from WV... Unfortunately since I was solo on the trails I didn't get pics of the hard obstacles. I was white knuckling it through them all and didnt stop until I made it to a safe spot. haha

great photo's so glad you ended up with this truck and just driving it and using it for what it was meant for! The blue hood actually has grown on me now and looks like its always been on the truck!

Love seeing the pics of your travels. If I was a younger man and didnt have a wife and kids I would be doing what you do! Using the bronco for what it was made for!

Thanks for the kind words guys! I absolutely love this bronco and the fact that I can use it for the reasons I've always wanted one. It is a blast. My body can tell that I've been spending a lot of time in an old 60s 4x4 tho thats for sure!

Hey Guys! I have had a crazy busy summer and the other day I decided I just needed a day/night off so I drove the ole bronco up to the mountains for a quick camp by a swimmy hole. I only took a couple pics but thought I'd share since its been a while.
