I read all the reports of deadly flip accidents and whatnot only to find that they gave the B2 a bad rap prematurely and later reports showed similar results with many other small and large s u v's. I found a gem CLEAN 86 Eddie Bauer and i get compliments on it daily no one can believe the price i got it for nor just the condition its in it has 95k original miles on it and the engine runs beautifully i am a mature enough driver to know how to keep my car running well as well as not to flip my stuff. I also owned a 86 gmc s15 jimmy (the small one) two door and that thing ran great. my brothers small blazer however was horrible my jimmy had a 2.8 v6 and he had the 4.3 v6 mine was 4x2 his was 4x4 talk about money pit. i am glad to have found this beautifully running machine and great looking 4x4 and gas mileage on this bad boy is twice what i had on my full size Bronco i am a FORD Man all the way and by the way ford hasnt taken money from the government its the other two that cant sell their cars because they arent building cars america wants.

The latter has over 200,000 miles on it. I fell in love with them when they were first produced but didn't get one (the '89) until it was six years old. I love them both dearly but, alas, the '89 has developed the Bronco II plague - a cracked head. I may have to junk it unless I can find another engine.

My parents have an 89 midnight blue/white two tone and have had since new. Over 200k on original motor and drivetrain, now rebuilt and still running strong. Repainted a few years ago.....hoping it will be my college grad present next year! I must say i love the 89-90 Bronco II. My parents have an 89 midnight blue/white two tone and have had since new.

That's why I just bought a '73, even though getting it registered in DC is next to impossible. http://twitpic.com/2s8ju I feel the same way, howard.
