How much off road usage will you do on your new Bronco?

I know many off road automobile owners (like the Jeep) who never used their car off road, they only buy them for the look, are you going to be one of them!!!??? Please tell me no way!!

with gas prices being what they are, and the increased cost of living really starting to impact us, we are making some conscious decisions of ways to cut unnecessary costs, so this past weekend, for example - I wanted to go out and do some off roading, but with it costing over $100 for a tank of gas, and knowing that a day of off roading is usually a full tank, I decided not to go.... hopefully things start getting back to normal soon(ish)

Unfortunately I don't think anytime soon.

I plan to take my Bronco off-road as much as possible, at least once or twice per month. Nothing too extreme, but 4, 5, and 6 (i.e. medium+)rated trails are defiantly in the cards.

You am brave, I m scared to death of Mall parking lots.

The most treacherous off-road park in the north east is a Wawa/Sheets parking lot

If you are from the area you know this to be true

Pure blood and tin foil hat

I'm old enough to remember when a vaccine actually protected you from a disease. In most cases, contracted and recovering from a disease is the best protection--which happened to me last November. I still test strong on antibodies. Now how about that Joe Biden--double-vaxed, double-boosted, and he still gets it--twice!

Are you old enough to remember last year, when people got it and DIED within a few days? He's 79 (the most vulnerable age group) and has gotten it twice and....(checks papers).....ah yes, he's still alive and kicking.

There's no arguing with a tin-foil hat wearing person - even when you use logic and science.

Rice on! I got my first rockcrawling in a couple of weeks ago on a Massachusetts trail nicknamed "the Jeep Eater." (Truth be told, a stock Wrangler could probably do it.) Good first run--I haven't off-roaded sinced 1965 (Sonora Desert, International Scouts, 3 sticks). I'm now in West Virginia Super8 researching possible trails, on my way to Moab!
I posted elsewhere, to repeat, the guys who put my new bumper, lights, and winch on said "90% of what we install never goes off-road."
For shame!

Absolutely no off roading for me or my B.
Year three. Neat to see though.

I was trying to go once a month or every other month but life doesn’t always allow that. A couple of off-road trips a year at least. Usually a days run through the national forrest, 600-1 and 600-2. Or little river canyon.

well, this didn't age well... gas is almost $7 a gallon here in CA .. luckily my new job is 100% remote, so I'm not commuting in a thirsty pig to work any more, but every time I fill up, it's very painful. I used to fill up twice a week at $100 a tank, now it's once every two weeks at close to $130 a pop.
