Hi Gang!
Ok, let me start by saying I love my wife hands down, no issue there. We dated for seven years before we married and my Bronco has been a part of our lives since day one. She is a really cool person. Case in point back in 2006 when we did our home remodel we ran out of $$ and I told her "hey let's sell the Bronco (which had been sitting in the garage not driven for 12 years), I can get at least $5,000.00 for it that way we could afford a fireplace mantel. She would have nothing of it and forbid me to sell her. God bless her!! 14 years later we still do not have a mantle but we still have my Bronco which I bought back in 1985 as a junior in high school for a whopping $2,700.00 (California Bronco....no rust!). Anyway, after all this time I got her back on the road installing new tires, BCB front disk brake kit, Wild Horses hydroboost system, Tom's power steering set up, all new brake lines, re-built rear drums, etc. as well as custom roll cage, all in the name of safety. Sorry for going on but the issue I am have with her is that she refuses to go in the freeway in the bronco. As you can see there is no hard top, soft top or bikini top. Her problem is not rolling over or rear ending someone but debris flying into the Bronco causing bodily injury to driver or front or rear passenger. We have three Hondas. My argument is that any bodily injury caused by flying debris could happen while driving any of the Hondas as driving the Bronco (while gong 70 on the freeway). Have any of you guys run into this safety issue with your friends or loved ones? In the meantime looks like I will be driving solo on the freeway!!
