Vanity

Is it vanity? I don't know. Am I the only one that parks in doofy ways and checks my security camera and just looks at my truck all the time? As I've raised a family I've had "sensible" cars for so long it's such a joy to finally have something bonkers like this that gives me joy just by looking at it.

I would call it obsessed! Which is a good thing when it come to Broncos! Nice to look at for sure.

Bronco is one of those vehicles that inspires owner's devotion. You're not alone. I can't imagine just looking out the window at an Accord or Camry, fine as though vehicles are.
Everytime I think I'm done with accessories I give in to temptation...

Nope! right there with you. My husband had the audacity to tell me I should just sell it and go back to an Explorer because there was no vents in the backseat! Umm, no sir, I did not buy this for luxury for the kids or anyone in the back! Deal with it or don't drive with me. 😀

I'm right there with you -- I've randomly opened my garage door as I pass just to take a quick look, lol.

Vanity, schmanity. It's a thing of beauty. What's not to love about it? The more often you can see it, the better! The parking stall in my apartment complex was rather dark, so I purchased a battery-operated motion-sensor light to illuminate my Bronco and the surrounding area. It came in handy while parking and when I needed to retrieve something from the vehicle.

The batteries never lasted more than a few weeks, so I swapped the light fixture out to a hard-wired one. It's not only brighter, but I set it to be always on so I wouldn't have to wave my arms like a madman to activate it. The bright LEDs draw a low current and are cool to the touch. Win-win for me! (I stopped just short of buying one of those security camera setups). 😜

My wife calls it an obsession of possession. Whatever, it’s fun, it’s mine, and you can’t have it. That is taking a cue from my 9 year old. The window sill in my office and the ability to see from the office window.

It is an obsession, not vanity. And, I have got it really bad! We smoke, but not in the house, in the attached garage where I park my Bronco. I have to quit, but I can't. I love going out there to look at it and sometimes hug it. I always, always turn around and look at her one more time before I walk away (I click the lock button on the FOB too because I love the amber lights that light up). From reading these posts, I'm in good company! Love this community and my Bronco (and all Broncos for that matter). 😁

I back into my spots to see its face, and even if I can't, make sure I can always see her.

Girls like these need to be seen and admired, they're not Foci, Taurus' and other boring sedans now

Last time walking the dogs at night I have to walk past my Bronco and make sure the doors are locked (again). Also have security camera pointed at it that’s viewable on my phone. Between the Bronco and my 77 F150 4x4 I’m always checking on them! Sorry, had to post the PU pic…

I understand. I have a Stoplock for when I am travelling or perhaps in some strange place. It is very safe where we are currently. From what I know it would take a criminal six minutes to take on off the wheel by cutting the steering wheel. With the Stoplock you have to make two cuts which takes time and perhaps some noise. A nice deterrent anyway.

Nice trucks!
