1996 Ford Bronco “bluebronco”

The fifth-generation Ford Bronco ran from 1992 through 1996 and was the last full-size Bronco before the nameplate went dormant until 2021. For 1992 Ford restyled the truck with the rounded sheet metal it shared with the redesigned 1992-1996 F-series, the body enthusiasts later nicknamed OBS for Old Body Style after the 1997 trucks arrived. It kept the removable fiberglass rear roof, a drop-down tailgate with roll-down glass, and a 104.7-inch wheelbase carried over from the prior generation. Power came from the 4.9L (300) inline-six and two small-block V8s, the 5.0L (302) and the 5.8L (351 Windsor), all fuel injected; the six was the base engine through 1993, after which the lineup went V8-only. Trim levels were XL, XLT, and the top Eddie Bauer. A standard center high-mounted stop lamp arrived for 1994, rear-wheel anti-lock brakes carried over from the previous generation and were standard throughout, and a driver-side airbag was added for 1994. Ford ended the Bronco after 1996 and replaced it with the four-door Expedition for 1997.
