    Website redirect

    Good morning. I've noticed a few times in the past 2 days that the forum has tried to redirect me to some Trackmenow.life website which is known for Malware. Not sure if other people are seeing this, but wanted to give you a heads up. Seems to happen when ads are loading.

    Thoughts on this 1979 Ford Bronco XLT?

    I found a 1979 Bronco XLT near me that I really like. I'm considering buying it and giving my 1996 Bronco to my son when he starts driving next year. Cons: I'm not very familiar with Carb engines. They are asking $14k OBO. Any feedback and / or thoughts on it? Anything to be weary of? Seems...

    Vacation photos - Dubrovnik, Croatia

    My wife and I went to Dubrovnik a few weeks ago and spent 5 days there. Super great place to visit. Everyone speaks English and people are very friendly. They are on the EURO so it makes transactions easy too. Great Mediterranean food, tons of history, lots of cathedrals, so much to see and do...

    2021 Explorer ST - starting issue?

    Last week our 2021 Explorer ST would not start. When we pushed the ignition button, it would just click fast a few times. It also started to smell like smoke. After work, I tried to jump it, and it would not jump start. I let it sit on a charger over night, and it still would not start. Every...

    Why we stand - by Maury Tate

    We just returned from 10 days in Wyoming, and what an amazing place it is. The people, the culture, the scenery, all just so amazing. We took a day to look at property and plan to make an offer this week on some land outside of Cody. While at Cody, we attended the Rodeo. They started it off...

    This summer heat is awful.

    Our AC bill last month was more than double the previous month. I don't remember temps being this high in the 17 years I have been here. I remember lots of straight 100-101 degree days but this is miserable. I went to bed last night at 9 PM and it was still 98 degrees outside. Looking forward...

    Vintage Bronco prices leap in 2021

    Got a little brother for my 2020 Tremor

    After recently moving, I decided I didn't want to put 100 miles a day on my 2020 Tremor. Not for fuel expense reasons, but to keep the Tremor for weekends and long trips. I found this 2010 Ranger in Dallas, and had it shipped down. It arrived last night. It's 2 wheel drive (I don't need 2 4WD...

    Sold our home!

    My wife and I had been tossing around the idea of selling our home, mainly due to Driftwood (and Hill Country) being such a crazy hot market. We live in a rural area, everyone has 5-10 acres, and it's a dead end street. Mostly nice homes, but older. 2 homes recently sold, both way older, smaller...
