I hate to see you do it. Yeah fuel prices ****. I know. But couldn't you just find a little four banger to run around as beater? Save the Bronco for the weekends or something. But just don't get rid of her. I understand, of course, other circumstances may force you to sell, but surely not fuel prices.

I could never not have a Bronco. Even if all I did was get her out a few times a month. I love them. And yeah I have a little car too. For running the errands, going to work etc.

Come on guys - you can make it work!

But if you decide to sell, there will always be people (like me) willing to snag a cheap project. Actually if you have a 87-91 automatic near PA ...oops wrong forum! :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Sorry

i Completely agree. I love my Bronco, even when she gives me trouble, and no matter how much money i put into her with gas, or fixing something or upgrading will ever make me want to get rid of her.

I tell my significant other that i dont care what happens my Bronco will never go. I will store her, fix her and drive her again.

I hate gas prices like everyone else, but dont take it out on your Bronco, what did she ever do to you.. Keep her, she treats you well, you owe it to her and trust me in the future you will regret letting her go..

Keep Your Bronco, Buy a Little 4 Banger, She Wont be Jealous!!!!!!!!!!

Heck, buy another one or two or three, and get a second job to pay for the gas.

Hey, that's what I did and I have a wife and child that don't help out with the bills, paid to much for my Bronco (but I still love her) and I still manage to keep her. The wifes T-bird, now that's a different story. My Bronco does sit alot now since I have to "save up" for the gas.

Yeah I know the feeling - almost done with my program at the community college and looking for a job. But what can I say. I love my bronco!

And good thing you decided to keep her. You never would have forgiven yourself, especially if you sold her locally and saw someone else driving! =)

Had to sell mine. Cracked the block and had a baby all at the same time pretty much. Now every time I see on e a little tear rolls down my cheek. Tow of the saddest days of my life were burrying my last dog and watching my Bronco ride away on the back of a flatbed truck. :((

Yeah, I know it can be depressing seeing the gas prices today but it is not enough to discourage me to get rid of my bronco,I've always wanted a bronco since the 80s and now that I have mine I don't want to let it go.Right now it is used for primary transportation and now I only put what I need for the week in gas.I remember two years ago when gas prices skyrocketed I saw less broncos driving around and many for sale.Hopefully the gas prices will fall to a tolerable rate sometime this year.

No offense guys...but I would sell my Bronco in a heartbeat! I like the Bronco, but not mine-too much of a pain in the wallet to fix enough to be decent!

I used my Bronco to get my wife to the hospital when she was having my little boy, his first ride was in a Bronco and now it sits more than drove but that's okay. She doesn't mind having a break from all that "stress" I'm sure. I went the other day to get her and drive her a bit and my boy went with me. As soon as we pulled in the driveway and I got him out of the car the first thing he did was run to the Bronco, go strait for the door and try to open it (he's only like 32" tall) then he started going "vroom vroom! vroom vroom!" Just figured I would share that, I can't sale my Bronc now, my boy said so!

i agree, id never sell my bronco either, yea gas does **** in mine because im rolling on 38's with 456 gears but ****, totally worth it, i love how when i pass other broncos they stare because they like what they see, and i do the same to them, the bronco is the best alla round vehicle, they can be clean classy and nice, but are tough enough to take offroad beatings, and have more than enough room inside to fit 5 or so comfortably, just the best all perpous vehicle EVER made, just wish my registration didnt say "wagon" on it hahaha

My registration also call the the truck a "2 Door Wagon". I wonder why that is? Anyway, I'm with the rest of you in that no matter how high gas prices go, I will not give up the Bronco. It may get driven a lot less, but that will only make it last longer. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Well I am glad we changed one person's mind about selling! Whoo hoo!

Would a hatchback be considered a wagon? The rear door lifts up, but the back window doesn't go down....just wondering. Actually, I am kinda glad the Bronco is registered as a wagon rather than a truck in PA due to the price - mine is about $36 and a truck is about $80.
