Ford Bronco II OWNER RATINGS & REVIEWS

Williamsburg, Virginia
Fun Vehicle.
I loved the ride height of this vehicle, it was just a ton of fun to ride around. Very cheap as well, pretty good gas mileage, about twenty miles to the gallon and had a huge gas tank of 20 gallons. Great four wheel drive as well, super fun to off road. It had a reputation for flipping over but this was incredibly unwarranted, it was not made to drive like a sports car, it was always very stable for me. I once drove up on a snow bank to park when that was the only spot left in the lot, so it was very useful in that way. Could also seat four very comfortably.

One problem after another
Given that this is a 25 year old vehicle I expected to have to do a little maintenance here and there. I did not expect to be gambling on whether or not I'd need a tow truck to get home every time I started it and went somewhere. To begin with, it's ugly. But, I'm a disabled vet and very poor so looks are last on my list of importance. Soon after purchasing the alternator and battery both needed replaced. We went ahead and replaced all plugs and wires at that time. Air conditioner was disconnected. After connecting it, it started to die at random times. Sometimes while driving down the road. Once it would die it would need to sit for a couple of hours before it would start again. If just making a quick trip to the store you could not turn it off unless you were expecting to be there for a couple hours or it wouldn't start. Multiple mechanics shops and several parts later it still wouldn't run right. My dad replaced the starter and wiring which fixed that issue. The latest issue has been with the transmission over heating. On hot days you can not drive it at all without the tranny fluid boiling out of the reservoir, leaving me in a smoke cloud and no tranny until I've added fluid. Even after putting a new huge cooling reservoir on it, this is still a problem. Even on cold days, I cannot go on any trip more than 45 minutes away.

Great Hard Running SUV
I bought this vehicle used to handle all terrain in Florida from sand and sea at the beach to swamp water to hurricanes and floods. It did a great job in all types of conditions. The vehicle got decent gas mileage and was reasonable in repair costs. I was once able to pull someone out with a tow line I had attached to the vehicle which made me quite proud. It was an easy vehicle to maintain and work on. One item of dislike was the weak alternator that had numerous issues over the years. I had to have it replaced at least twice due to failures. This vehicle did well at pulling trailers and was able to handle them well. It was also a very comfortable vehicle to ride in. It was quiet and drove smoothly. It handles quite well at higher speeds on the interstate as well. I especially liked the heartiness of the paint job that never flawed. It's well constructed too and never seemed to get dents in parking lots. I wish this vehicle was still for sale as I would purchase another one this very day.
