A couple of vintage B2 videos...

[rusty ol ranger]

First off, a rather bizzare, corny, but kinda fun to watch BII promo video....

Then an obvious ad for a S10 blazer...where they really shoot the BII up...go ahead and pick it apart...lol

I like these B-# better.

But they didn't take it out and roll it over like everyone seems to think they're extremely prone to having happen. I don't know my 88 B2 seems pretty dang stable for being a short narrow wheelbase high center of gravity carry all. I happen to like my Bronco 2 LOL...as well as the 87 Ranger I've been slowly getting back up to speed after sitting for 4 years...why the hell do people do that crap to a vehicle.

I saw FiFi in person a few years ago when it flew in to Indy. got to go on board and look things over. If you had real money you could get a ride on it, but that ranged from 600 to 2000 dollars depending on what seat you were in. I do have a video of it flying in and landing.

Awesome plane, and only one of two that are still flying.

I saw Fifi at MAAM this summer. I think I got some videos of her one landing approach on my phone.

I'll have to look and see if I recorded it, or if I was too busy watching it with my eyes and not my phone.

I agree, they are not super unstable. The key is to drive them like they are a small, tall SUV, not a Miata. If you aren't an idiot you won't have issues.

I will say mine starts to feel a little tippy around 80 MPH.

Hua. Did they hide the Jeep behind the rock pile on top of the hill?

 

[Dirtman]

I was expecting more bombs... or at least some scences from 'broken arrow'.

 

[sheep herder]

How about a B 1?

 

[Curious Hound]

If that's a BI, then the BII is a definite step backwards

 

[Dirtman]

No one wants to see your bone.

 

[PetroleumJunkie412]

Speak for yourself.

 

[rusty ol ranger]

Ive got a question though....

Howcome in the blazer film it said the BII could tow like 4000lbs.

In the BII ad it said 2000lbs.

Not to spark an engine debate but...how could the 84 with a 2.8 with the same chassis etc tow 2k more then a 2.9?

 

[sgtsandman]

The BII is more reliable and dependable than the B-1 is.
