Lilj4425's Super Duper photo thread from Bronco Super Celebration East

[broadicustomworks]

But if nobody shows up, it suggests there were probably better locations.

EDIT: I guess im really just being selfish and wishing it were closer to me. I dont even know who is putting this event on or what their intent was. I just want to see some Broncos up close. Disregard.

Get on in the car, Stu! It ain't that far away from SC!!
We are heading over there in the morning before the buttcrack of dawn.
Make it a nice day trip adventure.

Area 51 definitely looked better in person than I or anyone else was expecting. People were blown away by it. All of the other colors were pretty much what I thought they would be. The cyber orange definitely has more of a yellow tone to it.

Does Cactus Gray look gray; or does it have a touch of green to it? Are any of the pics we've seen anywhere close to the color you saw? What do you think of it?

Ford needs to offer color matched paint cans as an option when ordering our Broncos. I bet they would sell a ton of them.

They'd probably sell more gas cans, than paint cans, though.

Ok!, I was trying to figure out the blues. I’m happy with Lightning Blue ?

Looked all gray to me. A dull and boring concrete gray. Nothing exciting about it at all. I couldn’t find any green in it no matter what angle I looked at it or how the sun hit it. Cactus gray was definitely the most disappointing color out of the bunch going off the painted gas cans. Maybe it would look better and have more green on the actual vehicle. Who knows.

Lightning and velocity blue are awesome. They both stood out very nicely and I would be happy with either on my new Bronco. Antimatter blue was darker than I expected. As long as there’s no delay, i’ll probably go with lightning or velocity blue now instead of antimatter blue depending on what trim I get.

I agree. Cactus gray gas can looks drab in person. But it does take a slight green/blue tint in this pic. Maybe some reflection from cans on each side.

Did the Carb Gray have a purple hue to it? I want it to be similar to Dark Shadow Gray, but I don't know if I could handle a purple tint.

I don’t remember the carb gray can having a purple hue. But it does seem like the can colors get tweaked a little by the reflection of it’s neighboring cans.
The cans give a general idea of color, but it would be best to see a vehicle in that color.

It didn’t look like it to me personally. Here’s a good look at it:

Thanks!

I don't suppose someone could catch a picture of the chassis so we can see where the sway bar links connect to the control arms?

Is the overland rig sporting 35" tires without the Sasquatch package? Big tires but not as much lift as there is with the other Sasquatch Broncos.

That's too bad. CG was my number one, but I really am not inspired by either concrete or dirty dishwater. I am disappointed in Ford's color decisions. I have thought from the start that they should have included, at least, the most popular colors from the first generation Broncos.

Thank you, for your analysis.
