What Owners are Saying About the 1996 Ford Bronco

"Great ride."

"If you can find one in tip top shape, simply put, buy it! These are seriously the last of the real suv's. Romp it, tow with it, beat it, change the oil, and be happy. Decent gas milage, excellent power, and a good solid ride. They are Beasts!"

"Cool and fun - can go anywhere with all my friends"

"I have a 1995 White Bronco and it is awesome! People give it compliments all the time. It cruises smooth and effortlessly on the freeway at 80 and can offroad with the best of them. I love the huge interior space and it's very comfortable. Great high driving position. I added a backup camera and an entertainment system to bring it into the modern age and now it's got all of the modern conveniences while retaining the rugged "old school" classic ford styling. The engine is rated at 210 HP and 325 lbs of torque and it doesn't lack for power. Mileage is 18 on the freeway so not bad. I'm in Texas and gas is cheap. I'm going to keep it forever and just upgrade as needed. Parts are cheap and all mechanics know how to work on it."

"Great 4x4 and daily driver"

"My 92 is surprisingly easy to park. It's short and high up so getting in and out of Parking spaces is really easy. I love the high seating position and the utility of the automatic back window and tailgate. Easy to toss in everything from groceries to building materials. It has plenty of power even though it's only rated at 210HP. Since it also has 325Lbs of torque it never leaves me feeling low on oomph. Dependable and really cheap to fix. It's basically a shortened F150 and parts are everywhere and reasonably priced due to the huge volume of vehicles out there. Great SUV and easy to bring into the modern age with an aftermarket backup camera and entertainment system. Just get one. You'll be glad you did."
