1989 Ford Bronco II XL 2.9 Liter
Summary:
Nothing like the Ford Bronco II, a lot of bite for a little SUV
Faults:
I ended up blowing the transmission because I didn't realize I had a leak until it was too late, and that was at 120,000 miles.
Other than that I had to replace the radiator about 3 months after I bought it.
General Comments:
I loved my Ford Bronco II up until the last day I had it. It handles very well and was extremely comfortable. I was in 3 accidents with it and it wasn't totaled until the last accident. The Bronco II is built like a tank. Unfortunately, the last accident I was in I rolled it, so it is destroyed. However, despite the severity of the accident it held up pretty well. I was towing another vehicle and the trailer I was towing blew a tire. Despite that accident I always felt safe in it and plan on buying another one. I love the interior of the vehicle, it was just right not to small, not too big and extremely comfortable. I cried when it was hauled off to the junkyard. Despite what I have heard about the 2.9 liter engine. I never had any problems with mine, it always started right up and there were no valve taps or ticks. In my opinion this is one of the best SUVs of all time.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
