    Loved them old Broncos, but would rather have a Scout.

    That is one good looking bronco

    As far as the jeep comment. you weren't serious about that were you?

    Jeep started in 1940!

    Yes, I was serious.
    Willys MB - Wikipedia

    Willy's was around with the Ford version, before " jeep" was a thing. Without Ford's and Willy's, there possibly wouldn't have been a Jeep. Now the "jeep" brand will never tell you this.

    Notice the terminology for the Ford version? "GPW". That's how it was named the "jeep"

    OK, so it looks like they both started at the same time then.

    Sorta. Jeep technically was after the Willy's and Ford venture. Without Ford calling it The "GPW" it wouldn't be called "jeep" now.

    Any way you look at it though, Ford was in it from the start. A lot of people don't realize this.

    I’ve been searching the arthritis boards and it looks like a lot o us are going off the biologicals for now. MTX never did anything for me. When I first started they put me on the pills. It gave me the worst heartburn ever. I begged the doctor to put me on the injectable.

    Spent the day grocery shopping for two months of grub.
    One more trip tomorrow and then we'll be able to self-isolate like they are asking us to and many Italians are warning the rest of the world to do.
    Got some pine split this afternoon too.

    The gift of humor of WWW losing his Rx reading glasses, and my grocery store readers leaving him down to MY Rx readers keeps on giving hee hee hee.
    His volunteer fire dept training last weekend covered non discrimination. Next subject he had to get MY glasses out to read. Go ahead, fill in the Chief's fun with that:rofl: :lol:

    Today he picked up a gun he ordered for kiddo from an FFL place up here. Two young bucks down the counter from him started up giggles when he pulled out the pink ones to fill out the registration :rofl: :lol:

    We should take wagers on how long til he gets his own again. Then again if get sent home for 2 week quarantine I hope his orig ones (and my grocery store readers) will turn up.
