Love the older SUV's. The amount of room inside of the vehicle is beyond words.
Ya don't feel like you're kissing the dash when in the front seats and there's
plenty of room in the back, seat up or down.
Great on gas considering it's size. Good acceleration and braking, and sounds
awesome. Nov 15, 2011

This SUV is awesome. It has a lot of power. The downside is the interior, no carpet, and just destroyed. Exterior looks fine no major dents and maybe a fresh coat of paint wouldn't hurt. I don't know what the gas mileage is like. I haven't drove it far enough.Nov 17, 2010

So ive got a 86 bronco right now. its one of the comffyist trucks out there. for an 86, the interiors over the top. Rust is a big problem for the rear fender wells, and front rockers. Also the gas tanks rust easily. Parts for them are fairly cheap in my opinion. I swear this truck is unbreakable. its completely stock... and me and a friend Jumped it (abt 5-8ft in the air)and it drove home. the only thing was thetie rod bushing fell off, and that was it.. performance wise.. it handles like an 86, besides the steering.. the steering is so so smooth..Oct 20, 2010

Good S.U.V. Not fast, but very powerful. Manual locking front hubs for 4WD to work. Good for off-road driving.
Accel- 2 out of 5
Braking- 4 out of 5
Handling- 3 out of 5
Very cheap parts wise, and easy to fix. First year for fuel-injection, the technology was not so good at the time, still having to pump the gas to get it started.
Appearance- 3 out of 5
The S.U.V. sucked when it came to getting good gas mileage, but a very cheap and easy fixxer upper.
Overall, fun to drive, unless hyour trying to go more than 80-85MPH in it because that's not what it was made to do. Very fun driving off road. But be careful, seeing as how its higher off the ground. I almost rolled it once myself when I was on the highway.Aug 07, 2010

OK performance. Acceleration was OK as well. Gas mileage was abysmal, but then again it is a 1986 Bronco. One thing that really stood out was how easily it rusted. Another problem was that the seat bolts cracked after a number of years... not much for safe driving once you realize that the only thing holding you back from flying out the window was the seatbelt.Jun 10, 2009

Just bought my Bronco about a week ago. I have an 86 with the 5.0, 4 speed overdrive package. I like the truck overall, but the tranny stinks. When it hits 3rd and 4th, it seems to be geared to low. then I have to get on it to reach cruising speed. The ride is good for a rig of it's size. The fact I picked it up with a new rear-end, new fuel pump, 25,000 on motor and new tires ($1,100) I can't complain. Required tune up,oil change and new alternator.Mar 31, 2008

I don't like Fords, but this one I bought for $400 and have put in about another $600 for parts, parts vehicle, trailer rental, gas, etc and it runs pretty good. I have not rebuilt anything at this point. I am not fully impressed due to the 2700 rpm @ 55 mph with a 3 speed auto but I am now looking for a FMX or AOD tranny to give me that overdrive and better fuel economy. Will state more later afterwards.Jul 18, 2007
