Jose's 94

So our ocotillo trip went well. Took the bronco and the F1. They both did well. Didn't go to crazy. Kinda putted around. Did a couple little exploration hikes. And went on a scorpion hunt! Here's some pics I'll try not to repeat any. Sorry if I do.

And this poor guy put the front end of his jeep into a crevasse. We kindly pulled him out. Good deed for the day done!!

I didn't get any pics of him stuck! Sorry. I didn't want to embarrass him that bad.

So I took the bronco out this weekend. We went out to ocotillo to hang out with some old VW friends. They hold a yearly night run this time of the year. We stay at desert ironwoods, hang out at the pool all day. And go out after dark. Everyone has stepped their game up. Only 2 VW powered cars left. Everyone stepped up to honda motors. Or driving trucks. So here's a couple pics. And hopefully a short video of the bronco in action.

[SteveG]

There are few things in life more satisfying than blowing the doors off a really nice rig with your budget ride. Way to represent, Jose!

I drove it to work yesterday. And I have mixed emotions. I love the way it feels. But I'm upset I can't hold the wheel with my knee anymore.

Oh well. How do the rest of you with after market steering wheels feel about them?

[crisis88]

Ok. Well that sequence posted completely bass ackwards!!

[tcm glx]

Looks great!!

[SteveG]

Sweet! That looks a lot loke the wheel the Saleen Mustangs used to come with. The cruise control switch bracket might fit that perfectly.

[yikes]

My son has that same air freshener in his Bronco. Haha!


After drive mine for a few months with the smaller wheel, then driving my sons with the stock wheel, I can say that I will never go back. My steering is quicker than stock too, so all in all a lot less english to make a turn. Feels like driving a bus with the stock stuff now.

[crisis88]

Haha. B. That's my endless obsession with having a fresh smelling ride. I have them in all my vehicles!!

[birdco85]

Which wheel and adapter is it?

[crisis88]

Hey birdco. The adapter is momo # 4535 and the wheel is the momo Monte Carlo.
