The Bronco is NOT a car...

I love bronco folks. They are some of the greatest people to share a common interests with...usually, most are as interested in our vehicles as I am. BUT, there is one thing I see here often that drives me crazy (it's a short trip too!)...people calling the bronco a "car". Let's discuss this ever impeding cataclysmic burning question!

My Bronco, car, truck, SUV, station wagon, or whatever belongs to my credit union until I finish making payments. Then I'll just call it "paid for." 😜

“paid for” is indeed a good thing to be able to call it…

Maybe this is why so many are intent to name their rigs, outfits, trucks, SUV’s, transport, Broncos, trucks, etc…

I just call mine OB1 and everyone in my life knows what I’m talking about…

I am the same way! My MIL told me she LOVED my Jeep and I had to call her out on it..."Thanks but it's a Bronco!"

When at a gas station and someone tells me nice jeep...I hit the ignore button. Happens all the time with my 67 and 21. But then I have to educate them. 😁

You have an “Ignore” button??

No wonder I can never get you to respond to my comments…

I hope everyone realizes what a ”first world problem” this topic is covering… But it’s very fun…

I remember being quite young, poor and didn’t know it, and thrilled to go on a road trip with the family (there were nine of us) stuffed into a ‘63 Chevy Station Wagon…. I saw Montana from “the way back”

I sometimes have to laugh at all of us over the things that catch our fancy today…

You folks are AMAZING, and this place is my GOTO to start my day!

Tell me about it!

I parked my Bronco on the street the other day and a woman walking towards me told a friend “I’m parked right in front of that Jeep. (Needless to say, there wasn’t a Jeep anywhere in sight.) even with four BIG, honking mud flaps with “BRONCO” spelled out across them, and a bucking BRONCO emblem on the tailgate, this dope called my Bronco a Jeep. Good grief! 😖

I had a boat once and my friend called it a cute little boat. I won't tell you the rest of the story. It got expensive. It was actually too small for our needs. Nobody wants to hear...cute little boat.

It happens a lot too. It is irksome but I just take the compliment and move on, not going to waste time arguing.

Most people can't tell the difference from the side or especially from the rear.
