Ok well my girlfriend doesn't like my bronco... "piece of crap" is what she calls it...but I love my Bronco. But it would be nice to have a smoother ride...and it would get her to shut up a little more as well...and prove her wrong. (she basis cars upon how they feel on the interior while your driving...) So basically I'm asking you guys for any tips or any thing that i can do to make it a smoother ride but still keep all of my off road ability's...I have 6 inch lift and 38s on it...Ive driven a 2001 F-250 ith 38s on it an dit was still really smooth...I would like to get it as nice as possible...

dude...hate to tell ya, but its lifted, it will never ride "smooth" like a girl wants, i too have a bronco on 38's, my girl likes it but doesnt like like it ya no, we take her mustang everywhere lol idc i save gas..... $-) anyway all i can tell you is get some skyjacker soft ride shocks, the hydroride ones, i got them and it does ride softer maybe just have one shock per wheel instead of 2 on each front wheel, if your truck has that option, search around for some soft lift coil springs (if there is such a thing) but other than that, just tell her to get used to it because your a man and broncos are man trucks dammit!!!!

Wow seems as if we are very similar...Most of the time we take her mustang as well....but thats cause she don't like mine....and sometimes it just wanna drive my bronco damn it!!

But your right it does save a lot of gas....she gets like 3x my gas millage....plus i dont pay for the gas that goes in her car so i get unlimited miles ****

Yeah....but my girlfriend drives slow....so i tend to just take her keys....we tend to get around ALOT faster that way...but i can move the Bronco around pretty damn good too...people tend to move out of the way when big ass things are headed in their direction....

Just for my $.02, she can get over it, if she doesn't like it then tough. My wife tried that on me, got her a t-bird and told her to keep away from the Bronco, what happend next? She enjoy's the Bronco because people don't cut her off or ride her behind....

One of my favorite things about that is when they move to let your merge on or off the interstate or anywhere else. The good thing about the T-Bird is it has a pretty neat little skinny pedal that will just let you shoot right infront of anyone...

I started this post before she got me arrested...Right now i just talk to her to keep her happy so she doesn't decide to go through with the charges...Once the court date is done and over with so is she.
