So how many different states have you traveled to? For parts and bronco purchases? Some of you eastern guys seem to be covered up with parts and broncos and have probably never needed to leave your own state!! ;D

Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, Colorado, Alabama and Kentucky.

I've shipped parts back and forth from all over. I flew up to san Francisco to buy a truck. Other than that I ship everything.

found enough Ohio members that I've only had to travel out of state to Michigan, Tennessee and Kentucky so far...but been to every corner of Ohio!

I live in Southwest Colorado, very close to the Four Corners. I can hit Utah, Arizona, New Mexico or stay in Colorado pretty easy. I have also gone to Texas for parts.

Now I see why we have a hard time finding stuff at a reasonable price in Colorado, poachers coming from out of state. :p

I have traveled to Oregon, Idaho, and Nevada for parts, not including all the local vendors. Not surprisingly, everything is cheaper outside CA.

Have shipped and purchased stuff from all over...

Poached!!! Mine was hard earned!!!! Drove my Bronco from Basalt to Virginia with 411 gears, 3 on the tree, collapsed bench seat, 2 boat cushions for a seat stopping every 200 miles for gas! Thank goodness I was going down hill most of the way! I was following a 24ft loaded uhaul pulling a fully loaded trailer with my uncle's estate and they would get to the motel 2 hrs before I would every day, and I left an hour earlier than they did. Granted that was 1995 and I was in my early 30s, but those 3 days hurt! Too many childhood memories riding in the desert SW with my uncle during my childhood to leave it!

Is it still considered poaching if I bought it way back when prices were normal??? ;D

Oregon, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, & parts of California that are far enough off that they might as well been out of state.
