sar4x4 Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 I suspect the Bronco would get better mileage than mine. Fuel injected, less rolling mass (smaller tires), much lighter considering shorter and my 1-ton axles, etc. It costs me anywhere from $25-$50 dollars an hour to drive mine in fuel! Compared to maybe $12 in my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastcoastcam Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 It's funny how you measure your fuel consumption in hours :P... My old '78 Chev 2wd would get about 4 hrs/tank, and had dual tanks, so about 8 he's running time. And that was idling OR 120km/h down the highway :P ! So actual MILEAGE seemed to depend more on speed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjoecanadian Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 18G tank and I get 3 hours out of it. I think my semi gets better fuel mileage. I would love that bronco as my DD it wouldn't see a trail. Maybe just a logging road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SQRLPWR Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 The VW money must be burning a hole in your pocket Tom! I'm admiring your restraint, I would have spent it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomWood Posted April 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 VW money went onto the loan that we had, currently no cash and no car, waiting on another bank loan to get a vehicle. Otherwise it would be spent lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly cheap but well worth the asking price (may be room for negotiation but I can not be sure) To put price in perspective: new galvanized frame is about $5000 before labour, rocky mountain parabolics are good for another grand or so...

sar4x4 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Probably had this one posted before. I'd love to pick up something to drive around and show off for a year. However this one is too tall. With a mild lift I would have considered it. http://www.kijiji.ca/v-view-details.html?utm_medium=email&adId=599226588&siteLocale=en_CA&utm_source=alerts&utm_campaign=email_alerts&rtlipmsg=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomWood Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 It looks like they didn't even attempt to hide the bondo work. Just slapped it on and said "It will do, looks better than my ***" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good catch. Ugh! No wonder the price is so low for such a built truck. I am of the same feeling, I wouldn't want that for a bit of a show ride. My truck may look as bad in many respects, I don't need another one like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjoecanadian Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 My truck has very little bondo, but I will be replacing the box side, if I don't make it a step side short box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
