Agree with the criticism for the handicapped parking spot. Hope it wasn’t done to just keep the Bronco pretty, although it is a very bad ass rig.
Wonder what rear bumper that is? I’d like to look into that one for sure.

Ahh, thanks for the link. That’s one expensive rear bumper; heavy too.
I just configured it to $2800 when adding lights and all. Closed the window, but maybe it was $2300? Either way, pricey but beefy.
Lots of different reasons for handicap tag. My wife can climb into my BRaptor (w rockslide engineering sliders & grab handles) but she can't go any distance due to MS.

This. I knew a guy with an old lifted Chevy--who was in a wheelchair--and that dude's upper body was so strong that with a couple well-placed handles he climbed into the seat and would reach down and toss his chair in the back.
I will still pre-judge everyone in a handicap space who doesn't appear handicapped because that's human nature and I've seen so many frauds, especially with the hanging placards.
If you're out of shape and at the gym, people will look at you funny. You have a significant other who looks out of your league? Judged.
Everyone pissed at people questioning the driver of this lifted, already hard to get into, vehicle being parked in a handicap spot probably get super pissed if they, or a loved one, has needed a handicap spot and they were all full.
Story time:
Well endowed high school friend and I were hanging out at an amusement park and she was pissed because people were giving her looks. Her comment, "they act like I'm wearing a bra, it's a swimsuit top!"
It was solid off-white, looked just like an underwire bra, and she easily had DDs on a thin frame. I had enough chivalry not to point out that it indeed looked like she was wearing a bra and jorts so of course people would be looking at her like she was... people make judgements off of limited facts due to basic instincts.
Chill. Nobody has any information on this person nor why they parked in the handicap spot.
They bought a Bronco and dumped a ton of money into it! I'd say that qualifies them!

Great post Squatch!
Yeah, funny how people just want to live in a bubble of nothingness unless it’s something that affirms who they think they are or how they believe.
Truth is, human nature is undefeated. As you said, with the rampant frauds, yes, people will be skeptical. Call it stereotyping the handicapped, but it’s more looking out for those who truly are and need those spaces, that’s basically where everyone was coming from.

Why is that??? I have never been able to figure that one out. I will park as far away from the store as possible for two reasons... 1) I am trying to get in my 100,000 steps a day. 2) I do not want to park next to someone that does not care if they open their door into me. Why is it You almost never see anyone else parked out there but when I do it I always get one or two POS cars parked right up next to me.... They are like bugs to a light.
I think someone on here referred to them as Horseflies... I like that.... Horseflies.... yea...
If you think about it all those blue and white painted parking stalls are reserved for golfers.... They all have a handicap... I hear them comparing their handicaps all the time.
I don't park there because well, I don't golf.... For twenty years I lifted my mom in and out of the car to the wheel chair and back again. If I can do that I can walk a couple feet.... I just feel sorry for the golfers.
