Them original wagoneers go for massive money now unless you buy one thats tottally junk.

Bring a trailer (maybe, i cant remember exactly) had a 91 model (last year) in showroom condition bring like 40k.

If you think that's bad you outta price a new one...

Oh i have lol.

By the time my GC is wore out maybe i can afford a well used one.

Id rather have an original one though.

Next time around though im hoping a (used) regular cab superduty with a 7.3 is in my price range though. Even if gas is 7/gallon

By then my 97 should be pretty well ready to be put out to pasture and ill need/want another 3/4 ton

Bronco is fairly analog, the screens are still rather small which doesn't really matter as it has actual knobs and switches for most of the controls that one would reach for while driving.

HOWEVER, right after we got ours we were driving somewhere in the rain with the wipers on. They were speeding up and slowing down and it was bothering me. Since she was driving I was going to figure out how to turn off the rain sensing wipers I didn't think our car even came with. Yeah, we have evolved beyond paper owners manuals so you have to look in the radio. But wait... you can't do that while the car is moving.

Turns out it was an actual software glitch and they just recently released a recall on it...



I would love a waggy...

I was bummed with the presets on my retrosound radio are set like a normal modern radio where you hold the buttons down. I took me months to figure out how to set the presets on the original radio 24 years ago and I was hoping the new radio would be the same way for old time's sake. No dice.

I just got the letter from ford about needing my stupid wipers reprogrammed actually. I was thinking that mine was made late enough in the year to be out of that range.. but.. I'm never that lucky lol.

I am luckier than others though I suppose.. mine worked fine all year until they needed to deal with snow. Other folks would have theirs come to a dead stop during a light drizzle in the middle of July.

What's job #1 at ford again?

I wish my phone still had buttons. Touching the screen sucks, especially for one who is often wearing gloves. I have a stack of perfectly good cell phones a cracked screen rendered useless. My current one also has a cracked screen, but this I just got the cheapest phone they had. Its slow and glitchy.

My one modern car w/ screens and stuff also does weird things...Like when I toggle sport mode the radio station station changes, sometimes the climate control too...

If you think you hate the screens now wait until they delaminate...
