Good, But Could Be Better — idk what to tell you about this one... its old, beat, and fun to drive. runs like crap, has about 200,000 miles on it. always working on it, still needs more work. but it runs, and hard as hell to get it stuck, its got power. if i could fix everything wrong with it, it would be a great truck.

Original Suv — 1990 ford eddie bauer bronco new engine, transmission, and differential. new suspension (bushings, sway bars, steering components) new Racho shocks, new wheels and tires, new window motors and weather stripping around (can roll down back window from dash). new custom intake and exhaust (cat/muffler). pioneer cd player w/ ipod connection/remote and 4 infinity speakers. also replaced plugs, distributor, alternator, starter, radiator, brakes...basically, everything under the hood has been replaced (ie sensors/switches). new tint. painted white 2 years ago (including under the hard top - which comes off easily). i love this truck and has been a project of mine for a while now and would rather keep it for weekends, but just moved to austin and don't have anywhere to store it. :( it has been an everyday driver. pictures available on request.

Loved It. Wished I Didnt Sell It. — 351 had alot of torque and fair amount of HP. loved taking off from a stand still. the bronco was the true definition of built tough.it can handle anything a stock truck can be faced with and more. The truck was in great condition.

nothing

Third Owner — It's a big truck and it's 4x4 with power windows, a/c, push bar and I can remove the cab in the summer time, as well as, pull anything with my hitch on the back. I love my truck. It is a lot of fun driving this truck, I don't have to worry about bottoming out. It needs alittle body work due to rusting but all in all next to the Jeep cj7 I used to own, this has got to be the best.

Should Have Kept It As A Pipe Dream — always wanted a bronco until i got one!!! thought it would be a fun project truck but theres way to many problems. wiring and obvious rust issues are the main problem. hopefully once i get the top off ill be inspired some more

Not Bad If Your Working — It got terrible gas mileage but if you need a people hauler you would find anything better. It needed repairs almost constantly which made it stupid expensive. But it was still a lost of fun to drive. You could stick that thing anywhere.

A Fun To Drive Bronco — This bronco was very good. It had a smooth ride and nice handling. It was my first vehicle and i loved it. It needed some work to make it look better, but overall it was a nice bronco. I had to get rid of it because i sunk it when i went off-roading and broke some major stuff.
