I bought this car new in 1995. Over the course of 10 years I drove it cross country twice. I love this car. The model I had had 2 bucket seats and a spare tire on the back. During the summer or on nice days the camper came off. They car handled fine and the four wheel drive was awesome. The rear seat was removable to make more room in the back. I had very few issues with this car. The model I owned had a dark blue paint and it caused it to overheat during the summer. Having bucket seats was nice but on long trips would become uncomfortable. It broke twice in the 10 years I owned it. Once the fan clutch broke and the 2nd repair the fuel pump broke. Both repair where costly but were very rare. Over I can say that this was the best car I have ever owned.

Great vehicle
While owning a 1988 Ford Bronco I found it was a fantastic vehicle for my style. I loved the ability to customize it. I installed a 6 inch suspension lift and size 35 Super Swamper Boggers for tires. With this the truck could literally go anywhere. The rear seat was removable which made the space in the back immense. The gas mileage was fair for the size and weight of the vehicle. With a 302 v6 engine I got roughly about 22mpg. I don't have issues with the truck often but when I do it can be quite pricey to repair. I've found the biggest issues are with the fuel pumps. The Bronco typically have two pumps. One on the inside of the tank and one on the frame of the vehicle. I've replaced both. Great vehicle over all.

Reliable But Gas Drinking
My Ford Bronco is above all a solid daily driver. My commute to work is about 8 miles each way, and I have used my Bronco for years without major concerns or failures. The minor electrical problems here and there are understandable in an older model, but it is a strong vehicle that I trust. The gas performance isn't great, but what do you expect? It handles well in adverse conditions and has been useful for camping trips on many occasions.
