For Sale: 1996 Ford Bronco in Lutz, Florida

This 1996 Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer 4x4 is sharp-looking, premium, rugged, upgraded, loaded, and powerful. So if you were looking for the one V8-powered 4x4 SUV that seems to offer it all, this one really gets it right.

Eddie Bauer Fords always have an awesome sense of style. The Pacific Green Metallic is a very natural color that also radiates with a premium glow thanks to a quality respray. Plus, there's Light Saddle Metallic that's part of a well-integrated two-tone on the removable hardtop, full-length pinstriping, and lower section with integrated side steps. It all comes together to give you an earthy vibe that looks like the combo was inspired by the shores of a remote mountain lake. And while a shining Eddie Bauer Bronco is already distinctive, upgrades like the blackout billet grille, bright dual exhaust tips, and clear tail lights just add to its memorable style. Of course, what you'll really love are features like the full-size spare on a swing-away mount and the proper trailer hitch that remind you that this classic is still quite versatile.

The interior continues the look of a highly respected machine. You get more of the premium look in the natural earth tones, and it starts with nice tan leather seats with the Eddie Bauer logo stitched in the headrests. These front buckets have fold-down armrests and a cup holder center console in-between for long-haul comfort. In fact, the whole setup is made to be quite luxurious with cold-blowing R134a air conditioning, power windows, power locks, a tilt steering column, driver airbag, cruise control, and an upgraded AM/FM/XM touchscreen stereo with Bluetooth. The nicely appointed back seat looks barely used, and the cargo bay is positively massive. The total impression is the right mix of versatility and quality care that you want in an SUV that just crossed the quarter-century threshold - making it eligible for classic car registration in many states. Even the removable hardtop looks like it has spent much time off this 4x4 (if at all.)

The fuel-injected 5.8-liter V8 was the optional motor, and so it's always great to have the big one under the hood. The odometer is believed to reflect the full actual mileage, but this is also one of the hardiest V8s Ford has put on the streets. And when this one fires up and runs with confidence, it's the right sign that it has been treated correctly. There are easy driving features like power steering, power brakes, and front discs. You even have desirable modern features in this classic like anti-lock brakes and a four-speed transmission with overdrive. This is ready to keep going when the pavement ends thanks to newer Cooper Discoverer tires (2021), and engaging the four-wheel drive is as easy as a touch of a button.

Complete with the owner's manual, this is an all-around attractive and respected classic SUV. So you know you're going to love this Eddie Bauer Bronco. Call today!!!
