Awesome!

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: rides great, hard to find
Cons: hard to find & rear seat

I've had my Ford Bronco for 2 years now. While my wife wants to trade it in (not because she doesn't like it) she will have to pry my cold dead fingers from the steering wheel to hand it over as a trade to some dealership.

If you want an SUV...

I am on my third Ford Bronco and unfortunately my last. 1996 was the last year of production as Ford moved its focus to the Explorer and larger 4-door Expedition. Here are the main reasons I like the Bronco.

Ew

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: None
Cons: Lousy gas, breaks down.

Although I have never owned one of these vehicles - thankfully, I have known enough people who owned them to write a pretty solid report. What I have found is that they are unreliable, get lousy gas mileage and have horrible acceleration. The times I...

Dec 14 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: All around the best 4X4
Cons: Ford stopped making them in 1996

The Bronco is one of the best 4X4's of all time. It is durable, dependable, and versatile. What other 4X4 do you mind actually taking out into the woods, climbing mountains, or fording streams with? This vehicle has it all. It the styling to look...

Hello Bronco...Goodbye VW

by nhbronco
Mar 23 '02 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Comfort, Power, Safety.
Cons: Gas Mileage and ease of entry into the back seat.
The Bottom Line: I hope they bring it back and add a 4 door version (not the Expedition) because I know that we would trade the 2000 Grand Cherokee for one.

I have owned three VW's in my life but have always wanted a truck. Now being married and having a two-year old with another baby on the way, the practicality of a truck diminished. My wife protested me selling my VW and getting a truck. So after hours of...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Powerful, beautiful, roomy truck
Cons: Bad gas mileage

I wanted a good looking sport truck that was not too long, that you'd have a prayer of parking in the city if you needed to. Tahoes and Suburbans were ruled out for this reason. I wanted a full size that I could fit snowboards inside of, in back. As a...
