The OG "The Family Wagon"

"The Family Wagon II" From the beginning..Old man River almost wasn't going to sell it too me. Evidently his grand son had purchased an equal length beam kit from us, and knew that we liked to cut nice clean trucks up lol!..My wife had to convince him it was for her before he would take the cash for it. I even gave him $1,000.00 more for it to help persuade him. Little did he know it stated getting torn down the next day lol!

More pics too come later!

Actually was up for trade for a nice clean Explorer for the wife. She wants to keep the Super duty now so the Bronco is getting a little more done to it so I can make some decent money on it when I sell it. Right now I wouldn't make much off it if I tried to sell it now.

This is what killed the motivation on the Bronco. My buddy thought it would be a good idea to let the wife drive his side by side and bam she wanted one! She tried to get me to drive it and I said no because I knew what would happen lol! A year later we did some baby making planning for kid #2 so my wife brought up the whole Side x Side thing. I told her all the quads need to go if she wanted one and I was planning on getting a new 450 anyways so I picked this up for her and the kids. I wasn't going to be able to pick up the new quad until the following weekend so we just took the side x side out to the desert the weekend before. After that I was hooked and have been having the time of my life with the family and friends doing the Side x side thing! Now Momma cant ride in it until after October when my new kid arrives so its just been me and my boy having a blast in it. Its the most fun I have ever had in the desert. Trying to to get motivated on the Bronco has been a bit of a bitch. I have to admit I NEVER thought I would get into Side x Sides and have always made fun of people that threw money at them haha!
