Is this anyone we know on here? Your out enjoying a nice cruise in the Bronco and some clown causes this! Glad they were ok!

 

[Bubbaluv]

Ouch! Glad to see everyone was ok.

 

[Mountain Ram]

Thats a pretty mean wrecker!!

Too bad about the EB. I would like To see an update on the repairs.

Probably coulda been a lot worst...

 

[Bubbaluv]

Yup, lucky. Not to minimize the danger, but at least it came down in the brush and it doesnt look like it flipped over. Semi soft landing maybe?

 

[lowbush]

didn't see a cage in the video, really lucky!

 

[mudstud]

That was the first thing I noticed. I agree really lucky.

 

[NDFess]

Where was the bronco owner?

 

[gearhead74]

Yeah a ~250lb cage definitely isn't worth the protection you give up for slightly better "low center of gravity".

Yeah, I thought the same thing...there did not appear to be too much damage. I like the exhaust. I think that is the first Bronco I have seen where the turbo style muffler was not clocked at a 45 degree angle.

Is that Jamie Hyneman from Mythbusters running the wrecker?

Glad everybody was ok

The top will do absolutely nothing in a rollover, it will crush down flat to the hood and fender level. Running a top is no safer than running it in roadster mode.

A rollcage makes up for the lack of structure in the top. Recommending running a top with no cage because it makes the truck top heavy is foolish.

And there would be no chicken without eggs, or is it no eggs without chicken? FYI, I have a full cage tied into my frame.

 

[Broncobowsher]

That's a pretty good tow truck as well.

Same color as my bronco before mine rolled. Ummmm maybe its a bad color combo that made it roll..%)

A Formula 1 racecar would roll over if it dropped off that ledge the right way. The driver had someone watching over him that day, that it didn't end worse for him. I'll take a rollover and hang upside down from the seatbelt over the roof smashin my bean anyday!

 

[sriha]

Even after the roll over the body work is still better than what mine will ever be

 

[xcntrk]

^Ha... they kept saying was a nice Bronco, I kept thinking it's still nicer post rollover then half the EB's out there...
