Bronco gets the Family tree

I have a pretty cool video. Unfortunately, it breaks the forum rules as it's off the road (private property).

Good times aside from my upper half of the driver door blowing out on the interstate!

So jealous you did it in your Bronco. Great pics and great memories. I will be in my Bronco next year.
