My new Bronco
Well I hate to jinx it, but things are looking a little better around here for me. I got me a new Ford Bronco, new to me anyway. She is a sweet 1994 XLT (middle year of the fifth generation of Broncos) model with a kind set of pipes (Flowmasters) that sounds like the tuned rumble of four Harleys. It is a cool teal green color that sometimes looks black and sometimes looks blue. She is sporting tint on all the glass that's way past too dark. On a sunny day, it always looks like a storms a comin'. I think someone loved her with passion before we met.
If you will remember I sold my other Bronco due to its transmission dying. Then it came back, for a while. I have another now because I have never found a vehicle I liked better or found more useful. This is my third Ford Bronco. My first was a third generation type (1986 the last year of that generation) with the Eddie Bauer package. My second was a fifth generation (1992 the first year of that generation) Custom package. I am very excited to have it and it is nice to have folks take a second look and say, "Nice Bronco Man."
It is nice to drive a motorcar that has appeal in muscle car circles as well as four-wheel gear heads.
She is wearing the "Hey Now" tag my others wore, as well as a Dead head sticker my daughter gave me .
I call it my small penis compensator to know my caste in life and not make matters worse.

Pretty damned groovy
Hey Now, Jed...You and Your Bronco are very Cool. Good for you. Enjoy!!!
good fer yew, sir! i am glad thangs are trendin yer way, to so speak. hows yer daughter?
Thanks for asking bd, she seems as normal as a fifteen year old daughter should. Except perhaps a bit wiser for the cancer scare and worry. It clicked her maturity dial up a few years as she sees mortality differently now. You know how a teenager seems to think that nothing can harm them? Well she knows better about the random bad luck that can befall a human.
That's one fine looking Ford!
