The other day when we were heading to Merus for the Adventure Her event, we stopped at the local grocery store (HEB) to stock up on ice, snacks and other miscellaneous items. As we were walking into the store a lady stopped us and said that her 4 year old son made her stop and take a picture of Darryl and Zeus and that her son loves the Bronco he points them out to her every time he sees one, and he thought ours was especially cool since he had never seen that color before. So we talked a little bit, then I realized we had Darryl stickers in the consul. I ran back to the bronco and grabbed a hand full of stickers. I gave him some and some to share with his siblings the look on his face was priceless he was actually shaking with excitement. It was pretty cool. His mom said we made their day, but that made our day.

What?? I believe you but just floored by this. Do you not take it out in public?
This is a daily event around here..... It is a constant. I do not understand how the first Broncos in the public eye (in 2021) could even have made it to their destination...

Yeah, there are tons of Broncos in my neck of the woods. We didn't get ours until November 2022 so by that time I guess they were old news. My brother got his BaseSquatch in July 2022 and he said every time he got out of the thing someone said something or asked him something. I did have a guy talk to me about it at a gas station on our way to Big Bend but he was a Wildtrak owner so we were just talking Broncos so I don't count that. but that is it. I guess I have resting douche face or something. LOL But my wife drives it daily and she is as sweet as can be and still no one talks to her about it either. I am not exaggerating about the number of 6G around here I passed one of the dealerships yesterday and I counted 24 Broncos, about half 2-doors and the other half 4-doors and they had at least 6 Raptors and I know they still have the green Everglades on the showroom they have a $15000 ADM on that one.

I believe it is a place or guy called Auto Nation Illustrations on Insta Book or Face Gram not too sure I don't do the socials my wife handles that.

Wow... I thought we had a lot of Broncos (per capita). Jeeps around here still out number Broncos 10 maybe 15 to 1 though... Still lots af questions and comments.

Oh jeeps around here its probably 50 Jeeps to 1 Bronco I am counting Gladiators too. But that was part of Fords Algorithm they were going to saturate markets with high Jeep populations.

So true! I don't think OEMs realize how vital clubs and accessibility are. Going to Mustang shows and collecting swag when I was younger is what kept fueling my passion and why I have owned over 20 Fords including Mustangs and now a Bronco. I have owned almost exclusively Fords not to mention all the Ford products and it's because of things like this when I was too young to drive and most of my life since.

They must enjoy seeing that Everglades on the showroom floor with that kind of ADM! I consider myself an EG fan, to the point that I ordered a 2024, but did not sell mine before market conditions changed (sharply, LoL). While the salesperson I worked with was great, the dealer did not make an attempt at a reasonable trade value for my Badlands, so I chose to walk away from the eruption green 2024 Everglades. That was almost 2 months ago and it's now on their website with a $1,500 discount below MSRP. Made me sad at the time, but I do like driving the 2-door in the end.

And I never thought about custom stickers, great idea!
