Ford Bronco Iowans - time to check in and be counted! Denmark.1


Moved to Des Moines to finish college and lived there for 15 years...

Now live in Grimes Iowa for the past 23 years...

Work for Granger Motors (Granger Ford & Granger CDJR) for 25 years so far...

Been to all but 5 states in the US (Alaska, Hawaii, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine)...

Will knock them out in the next few years...

Still want to ride the Trans-Canada train to see that wonderful country...

Sorry Mexico I will stick with the tourist trap spots, little dangerous there and they will not let me go there walking heavy...

Grandpa, uncle and aunt born and raised in Eagle Grove, Iowa. Uncle stayed there his whole life. We used to fly to Des Moines and drive up for quite a few Thanksgivings. They are no longer with us but thinking of swing by there on my way home to look around and reminisce if I decide to do pick up rather than delivery.

About straight north of us, but then you can hit 20 and enjoy some of the towns on your way back...

You will want to stop in Rides Bar & Grill in Fort Dodge for a fantastic Hamburger...

Not from Iowa but wish I was... I did a road trip up the Mississippi through Dubuque and PDC and ended at Lacrosse. Man that was a beautiful drive during Fall time with the leaves changing and cool breeze. Y’all are only a few hours from me so I like taking weekend drives out by the country side.

Up in the NW corner- Sioux City, a career firefighter, I dig running 100s of miles at a time in the mountains, riding my mountain bike all over, and love cool rigs I can make into overland camping like the Bronco. And I love cool dealerships like Granger!

go Hawks!

I live in Minneapolis now, but I'm originally from eastern Iowa. Grew up on a farm in between Waterloo and Cedar Rapids, 5 miles off the Brandon exit on 380.

Covered bridges and John Wayne (Marion Michael Morrison)... (y)

Those are a couple of the attractions to see in that part of the state...

Farm Boy here as well quite a bit south of you, I never escaped from the state...

Have visited almost all of the states now and still like Iowa as a home base...

I've been over by Granger Ford a ton too! Lived in Ankeny for years after college and seemed to always been in Polk City or Granger for some reason (work related). I'm working with Apple Valley Ford up here right now, but I've already threatened to move my order to you guys if I don't get X-plan and confirmation of no ADM. They seem ok so far.

Give them a chance however you are welcome to get a quote from us as well to compare when pricing comes out...

I was born in Waterloo, IA and lived in Cedar Falls until my parents moved us to the Chicago area.

My family is originally from Pocahontas/Havelock. My grandpa owned GM dealerships in that area - Dean Sandy Motors. He sold his last dealership many years ago, but I still use his keychains.

I still have family in West Des Moines, Waukee, Pocahontas... and some other areas.
