1988 Ford Bronco II review from North America
"Reliable first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission slips on occasion.
No arm rests!
Grossly underpowered 2.9L V6.
General comments?
My Bronco used to be a Coleman security vehicle so it has not had many highway miles on it.
I just recently hit a parked trailer and the quote to get it fixed was 2800-3000 dollars. I bought the parts and fixed it in two days for 150 dollars, I'm only 16 so you might have guessed that it was pretty easy.
Very reliable light truck. It gets me to all the remote fishing spots and will still make it to school.
