To whomstever left this on my Bronco… "You've Been Bronco'd"

[Chritaka]

I LOVE IT! What a great story.

I received my own gift a few weeks ago in Moab - coming out of the Canyonlands NP Visitor Center, I found this on my driver side door handle; I was absolutely floored. Looking around the parking lot, no other Broncos were in sight. This little gift made my day, and much more.

Very cool, even matches!

This is my way of saying... You've been bronco'd

Where'd you get these? I did some searching, but came up empty.

I got them on ebay. I posted the link a few post back.

Ah ha--I was looking for magnets. Looks like these are like a patch style. Pretty cool they have 2- and 4-door. Only they had to be mean and not have 2-door Cactus.

I got them on ebay. They are velcro patches that stick to your head liner or the back of your rear seats.

These are really cool, and for what they cost, kudos to you for doing it!

Hard pass for me. Not into strangers messing with my shit.

Very cool, even matches!

2 door vs 4 door
hard top vs soft top
painted mirror and handles vs not
wheels don't match
missing roof rack
missing fuel carrier

I'd be pretty disappointed. It's not even rare; you can buy them off the shelf and anybody who owns a Bronco could most likely afford to buy one if they wanted one.

If it was an exact replica, I'd be very excited and appreciative. The effort involved in creating a scale model of my Bronco would show me they really appreciated my build.
Any schmuck can scrounge up a couple bucks, buy a duck or matchbox car off the shelf at Walmart and leave it on the hood of my car. Little effort. Little appreciation. On the whole, not a very good gift for a $60k vehicle.

I suggest a minimum value of $100 for any "you've been bucked" gifts that are bought off the shelf along with a gift receipt so we can exchange it. If you're not sure what to get, a good default that everybody will love would be a $100 gift visa.

We are Bronco owners! We can do better than Jeep owners!

It’s cheesy and stupid but I love it and it made me smile, so thank you! I’ve seen so much hostility for people giving these little guys out and I don’t understand why. It’s the most innocent act ever and hurts no one.

Someone left me one on my driver door handle, so I mean, that’s pretty harmless!! It was the biggest bright spot on dreary day with torrential rain, on a 1000 mile road trip. I still have the little guy on my dash, makes me smile every day.

It wouldn’t bother me but I’m wondering who the hell drives around town with a trunk load of rubber toys and labels at the ready to stick on people’s Broncos as they encounter them?

Didn't know Toyota still made the pickup and the FJ. Ranger doesn't come with washout interior or 360 cam as far as I know. Aren't land rovers expensive? And a Colorado has washout interior?

Aftermarket does exist. But lack of warranty and additional costs... I'd rather buy it cheaper with everything I need than build it.

You're right. I suppose since I have never been ducked, I shouldn't have an opinion, although I also think the Holocaust was atrocious despite not being Jewish.

Did you just compare a little rubber duck to the Holocaust? It's a little funny that you don't want to be a part of a Bronco community, yet you're active in an online Bronco community website. Think that's what he's getting at.

I have tiny stuffed Bronco horses and the Bronco cards (web address to local Bronco Club) and leave it on the very few Broncos I see in my area. I am respectful of your ride and place it in such a way that no damage is caused. It is a means to unite local Bronco owners. I am SUPER picky about all my vehicles....but if this pisses someone off, no community love I guess.

See, I think bronco nation is a social media platform specifically for bronco. This is more of an almost wiki technical site full of knowledge on all things of bronco. I can check TSBs, recalls, and even see reviews of aftermarket accessories.

And no. Didn't compare anything. Simply stating I have an opinion, as I'm apparently part of this cult. It's good to formulate your own opinions for creative and critical thinking. Just because you aren't involved shouldn't mean you can't have an opinion.

If I'm not supposed to have an opinion, then perhaps the Holocaust reference is relevant for the time period.

Too much work, I just stick them to the head liner. Rip them off and put on windshield. 3 4door and 6 2door left.

Watch out 6g owners there’s a rad dude about to hand out the following -

If I catch you in the mall parking lot and you’re not parked on the curb boom you’re getting a play off road patch and sticker

If I see you on 37s boom you’re getting a tire limit 37 patch and sticker

If I see a fellow veteran or old gen boom you're getting an old glory patch and sticker

Hopefully it’ll put a lil smile on yours or your family’s face at least that’s the intent.
