It is about one week away from the Bronco Safari in Moab and there has not been one peep about it on this site.
I have made some of my best friendships from the Bronco off-road events.
I guess Broncos have really gone from rock crawlers/off-roaders to mall crawlers.

I've not converted to a mall crawler yet but life is busy, kids in high school sports except for summer and I figure there's lots of time to crawl after they graduate. We've been to zero crawling events anywhere since 2018 and SC east once in 21' and that's it lol.

Most of the Bronco Safari chatter is happening on Facebook. From the posts it looks like it will be another big event. I wanted to go but I've got some scheduling conflicts.

Bronco safari is on my list. Just waiting in my wife to retire so we can travel more. Her work schedule is not bronco friendly so we miss a lot of events especially one that require 2 or more days on the road to get there.

Looks like upwards of 2000 registered Jeeps on Easter Jeep Safari this year. Well over 1500 Jeeps on trails during the 9 day event. Organizers say that there was be over 20,000 participants, but I have no idea how they count??? Is it the same 2000 people x 10 days? Or did each Jeep bring 10 people? Either way, it seems to be growing since the Covid lockdown of 20-21.

Early Bronco's on the other hand, looks like there will be 4 guys in one campsite sharing a trailer.

I hope that the new Broncos make a good showing. I think a lot of people want an alternative to the "Jeep thing..."

It's funny that everyone whines about rock crawling their $75K Bronco, and don't want to scratch it. But every 392 Hemi Rubicon on the trail is over $100K. and there's no shortage of them...

But yeah, de-fang your retired Crawler, paint it pretty, put it on 33's and park it in a garage.
