Well alright. I was going to add this to nvrstuk's thread , but it seams worthy of its own thread and I can't seem to find one. From time to time you all post cool non-bronco vehicles that you keep or have kept. Sometime tractors, or hotrods, or boats, bikes. Even jeeps. Whatever. If you have another cool thing that runs, let's see it.

Just got this modified '79 Samurai for a first vehicle for my son. Manual, carb'd, and great for learning how to wrench and drive standard. We are currently re-wiring it. Pretty cool first car by my standards.

Nothing! lol

Sleds, TimberSleds, boats... no toy 4 wheeled vehicles that aren't farm rigs tho. Got too many titles that need insurance already.
OK, re-read the title. I guess my off-road toys that have titles count. lol I'll post a couple of pics when using them since they won't be "poser" pics! :)

2nd pic I moved all that snow & flipped it over the handlebars while my buddies were doing the same thing 50' away.

3rd pic- thawing it out

4th pic- just a nice day

Many are all ready familiar with my other “passion” 😂 this is my slightly modified 1970 Jeep J2500 Gladiator. It is my daily driver, car camping rig, and just all around fun machine that get more talkers and admirers in public than my bronco, that always surprises me…

Post, up this should be an interesting thread😎

I have a first generation Raptor and love to host private group 500 +- mile excursions throughout Nevada to ghost towns and other poi’s… have thought about doing a classic bronco trip when mine is done and reliable enough.

Awesome.
I rode sleds some in central BC as a young guy. If we had more annual snow here I think I'd have a sled problem.
Years ago an old guy told me the key to having a manageable life was owning no more than 10 sparkplugs total. Truck/boat/power saw, etc. seams like a very low number.
I think I have 40 that I work to keep running right now between Broncos/kids' cars/daily drivers/dirt bikes/boat and power saws etc.

Need more diesels to get down to 10 spark plugs 🤣

I’m way past that too lol. Close to that 40 number as well.

If always liked Mustangs, my mom drove a 64-1/2 with a 289/c4 when I was little. Wish that car was still around.
I think the Hoonigan AWD "Mustang" is one of my favourite all time cars.
Didn't you have a Torino recently too?

Those are the toys. Not counting the daily driver stuff. I have not done any new videos of the boat since I did those just after restoring it. Plan to get it out this spring. Thinking about taking the bike back to Moab again around October. I've done it twice. Next time hit Hells revenge early in the day to avoid traffic and the bike trails in the afternoon. Biggest thing is to not go too far, only a half gallon gas tank.

Yeah, that was the advice, makes me laugh when I think of it. I've owned diesels but don't currently. I don't count the 6 in my work truck because i don't pay to maintain it.

@Broncobowsher good stuff. I had an 03 sherco 2.0, with a matched sherco 50cc limited run trials bike that my kids rode. Cool bikes. That sound in the video I awesome.
I'm looking to update to a newer bike. I want EFI, too many elevation changes in places I ride (1000-7000 foot elevation). But I also want the electric start. So far you can get a trials bike with electric start OR EFI, but not both.

Are these sherco 2.0 for competition only? I know nothing about them- obviously!
All I know is my 450KTM SX-F is EFI & electric start. Too much bike for me off road as I only use it for snow. No light, no gauges, no tach etc but it comes stock with traction control because you'll dig a hole to China if you don't use it in 1st & 2nd. All I know... :)

Tech3 sandrail with a 2.5 turbo Subaru. Just made a new exhaust for it, which has been pushing my bronco to the back burner!
