What It's Like Driving a 33 Year Old (OJ Style) Ford Bronco XLT!

- 👋 The 4th generation off road focused Ford Bronco was definitely something to check out to compare with the all new 2021 model that was released earlier this year! I have a lot of seat time behind the wheel of the all new Ford Bronco and even attended the Bronco Offroadeo to really test out the capabilities of this new vehicle! So getting to check out this 1988 XLT was a fun experience to see how the Bronco was 33 years ago compared to the latest retro looking modern Bronco! This model definitely shows it's age from the locking hubs on the front wheels for the 4wd system to the rear tailgate! However it did have some modern features like the power rear glass, power windows and AC! This was definitely more of a utility vehicle or offroader than a daily driver! You can see some resemblance with the new model compared to this, but they also offer completely different functions and features! The exterior of this Bronco was in really good shape and had a nice design to it! Chrome was very popular back then and you can see that theme throughout the exterior! The interior also had a nice design, very plain and simple compared to todays standards, but had everything you needed! All of the knobs definitely felt old, but everything worked well! The driving experience was completely different and the fact that this 5.8L V8 had so little power compared to today is pretty crazy to see! It drove great for the age, but of course nothing like the 2021 Ford Bronco! For the 1988 model, this had three different engine and transmission options depending on what you needed which was cool to see!

The ALL NEW Bronco is finally here though and we have a ton of videos on the newer model! Ford is ready to take on the competition from Jeep. You have a few engine and transmission options along with so many different trims and body styles just depending on what fits you best! Definitely a great tribute and new modern design for the offroad community with the Ford Bronco!

OJ had an OBS. This is a bricknose. Still a great rig. Had a '93 now a '91
oh cool
I remember these were popular during tailgating events. I'm amazed at how new this looks to be almost 34 years old! Based on my recollection, this is the oldest vehicle I've seen on this channel. Nothing like hitting rewind to check out classics! Would love to see more of these throwbacks if you'll be fortunate enough to find them.
We have had some older vehicles like the 66 mustang and Shelby cobra! But we don't do too many, ever now and then!
Hi
Fox 🦊
I had a 1994 Bronco. That was my favorite vehicle I ever owned.
Oh cool!
Solid front axle?? Wrong. It uses the Ford Twin Traction Beam system used on Ford 4x4 from 1980 to 1996.
yeah also you couldnt get a 4 speed auto behind the 5.8 or 351 until 90 when the e40d came out. the 302 and 300 had the aod option starting in 85. that limited badge as well was not from ford. you only had a xl xlt or eddie bauer trims.
I love Bronco's. 💯❤️
The Bronco is a cool platform!!
I like how he talks about an 88 car like its a Model T. "I don't know if you'd want to take this on the highway" xD
I wouldn’t go that fast but you could, is that what you thought after driving one?
@@BrosFOURRSpeed the national highway system was built in 1956, yes I would drive a 1988 Bronco on the highway. Its a modern car for the most part. It even has power windows and cruise control.
@@1Mitch1904 I wouldn’t call it a modern car by any means. But enjoy it.
What a monster. What a classic. I see those all the time on Mecum auctions. Cool Review Mike! ( The Bronco is older than both of you! Lol)
It was pretty cool to check out! I prefer the newer one but it was sweet! And only a few years older!
I bought a 94 bronco this summer :) oj style too, all white. She’s in the garage for the winter :(
Oh cool!
I had a 95 black bronco xlt. Loved it. Biggest issue was the electronics. Two different times I spent between 1500-2000 on repair work. Great on the highway and road. Gas guzzler but you know that going in.
Thanks for sharing! It was cool to check out this generation for sure!
Greetings Mike. What a fantastic looking truck. Love the straight lines, muscular front and general stance. I wish we could have a similar look in modern SUV's. They are getting rather bland here in the UK. It's almost impossible to get a 2 door truck now too.
It definitely has that boxy look! And yeah the two doors aren’t crazy popular here either but you’ll see them around!
Very cool! My first car was a 1988 Ford bronco 2 Eddie Bauer edition. It was a 5 sp manual with electronic 4 wheel drive.. I had a lot of fun with it!
Very cool! Thanks for sharing!! First time in the original one and it was pretty neat!
Definitely a well maintained Bronco. I like it. Get bluetooth in there and that's all you need. Great video!
It's very nice for it's age for sure! That's the one thing missing lol!
My old neighbor back in Long Island, NY had a bronco that looks just like this. The SUV kept getting flat tires though, the guy got some enemies lol.
I love these classic Broncos! You could put big block Ford crate motors in them and go racing with it! 😎
There is definitely a lot of potential with this truck just depending on what someone wants to put into it!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Lots of room for a Coyote 5.0 with a Helion twin turbo setup! Would be nice to pair that up with a 10R80 auto transmission. 😄
This car is restorable, we can replace the engine with a new one, we can also remake the interior to make it look newer than before :)
It's definitely a project that could be done for this Bronco for sure!
12:14 “I’m not sure if you’d want to take it on the highway” I go 90 down the interstate in an 89 bronco😂
OJ Simpson's getaway vehicle.
hahah
Wow what a cool car love the videos
Glad you enjoy the reviews! Pretty cool to check out this Bronco!
I have a '90 Bronco (still 4th gen) that I'm resurrecting, and it is an awesome truck! One correction, though: you mention it has a solid axle, but it does not. It has a Ford TTB (Twin Traction Beam) front axle, which is an independently articulating Dana 44 on coil springs.
Wow thats a pretty cool design! Never seen that before!
It was introduced in 1980 and went through 1996. Great system!
I QWN A 1990 FORD BRONCO EB .I LOVE IT
Oh very cool!
A real truck, only thing missing is a locker. Imagine modern manufacturing of these older style vehicles
That would be interesting! I don't think too many vehicles back then had lockers, but that would have been cool too!
Those Broncos dont need lockers. Regear, lift, and proper tires
@@GratefulOverlander yea they do
@@mblake0420 funny. I've had mine since it was new in 89, did a regear and lift in 94 and have never been stuck.
But I guess it also depends. If you're stupid enough to think these are full rock crawlers then a locker may help, but youd need to do more then just a locker
@@GratefulOverlander dunno, depends on your terrain. Where I'm from a locker is mandatory
My teacher had an old Ford f150 with a 3 on the floor manual transmission I believe it was a 1980's model Ford F150
That's cool! It's always neat to check out older trucks like this!
Run OJ Run OJ
LOL
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Juice lmao
Which material and color are these seats? Love the design
I’m not sure the material of them, I’m sure they aren’t factory.
Insert OJ jokes now 😂
OJ can run from the Police in style! 😄
haha quite a few comments have ;)
lol
We never got in it Europe, but we can import one if we like.
Oh nice! Not sure how expensive that would cost but it’s so able!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I believe it’ll cost a lot to import one, because you’ll have to buy the car from the US and A, then pay shipping costs, tax, VAT and all that sort of stuff.
Yes we did
@@bragerogstad571 I wasn’t even born at the time these were in production, but okay…
But I heard that the new Ford Bronco will be available in mainland Europe, which include the mainland EU countries, Norway, Switzerland and some former Yugoslav countries.
I want one so bad
Yeah these are pretty sweet!
If you ever drive that thing to Los Angeles please dont get into any slow speed chases on with the LAPD on the freeway. And oh dont forget any gloves or nit caps in the vehicle.
While that bronco is nice it’s not the same body style as OJ used. That’s an 87-91 “bricknose” bronco. OJ had a 92-96 “aeronose” bronco. Cool rig though.
lol yeah. We get a ton of OJ comments on this video tho. Probably because it's white
8000 lb tow rating per the manual in 1990.
Where did you find a manual for this Bronco? I found what I could for that.
It’s verified 7700 lbs vis motorweek on TH-cam for 88’ model
@@BrosFOURRSpeed i own a 90
Tow rating is fine as long as what you're towing isn't long or you're being passed by a semi. Then the tail starts to wag due to the short wheelbase
Crazy they're asking that kind of money for a vehicle with a broken gas gauge.
The truck had just got to the dealer so that's something that can get fixed.
Not really, they make great prerunners 🤟
Bros Fourr Speed, how many videos are you filming each day? I've seen the 2021 Subaru WRX Premium on the side. 😁
One a day at 9AM (ET).
It varies day to day but we can do 7 in one day! Just depends!
@@DaveDVideoMaker Yup, everyday!!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Could there be an occasion where you don’t make any weejios?
@@DaveDVideoMaker What’s a weejio?
I had a '88 with a 5.0 and it was a real slow poke. It needs a Coyote swap.
Yeah! Crazy to see the power from smaller engines today and even the latest V8’s!
make sure ya
name it, Uncle
Earl
lol
Have you rebuilt your ECM yet?
I don't own this Bronco
does he respond when you’re early ?!?!
He does respond to all comments, but it will take him from a few minutes to hours.
We respond to every comment we can! Timing just depends on how busy we are!
@@DaveDVideoMaker Just depends on how are day is going!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Sometimes it takes you a few days to reply to us.
@@DaveDVideoMaker Just depends.
Newer vehicles have a 'head restraint' not a 'head rest'.
It’s the same thing lol, most people call it a head rest but it functions as both.
OJ’s Bronco was a 93, close but no cigar
lol oh well. But with the amount of OJ comments I've got on this video. Close enough
Old Bronco or old Wrangler
That's a tough one! Probably the older Wrangler just because of the doors!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed yeah it wasn’t until now the Bronco had removable doors
you missed the high beams. most kids my age won't know how they work.
High beams work the same on every car lol! It's the same bulb as the headlight, just gets brighter :)
@@BrosFOURRSpeed hes talking about the switch for it. its not on the column.
👍
Thanks for checking out the 88 Bronco video!

Hi
Hello!
Hello!
I know it’s an old video… He’s explaining how to open a door and turn the lights on, are we so far in the future that people wouldn’t know how to do that themselves? You can tell he’s never driven an old Ford by how he awkwardly starts the thing.. no need to twist your whole arm starting that thing. Tilting the steering wheel would probably blow his mind. That truck needs a heater core judging how that windshield is barely fogging at the base. I’ve been in one of those when new, it’s a pretty basic vehicle to say the least. The novelty of daily driving that thing in 2023 would quickly wear off. At least it’s got power windows.
We’ll I did mention in the video I’ve never been in one. It I’m not explaining in depth, just showing the features like I do in any review. Thanks for watching.
Does anyone have the urge to go on a slow police chase on a crime that i may have done?
Cool, just stop referring to this generation as "OJ Style Broncos". It was actually Al Cowling's on TV, though OJ had one. Besides, I don't want to have these awesome, classic trucks associated with that murderous POS, OJ Simpson.
I never said anything about that, just reviewed it as it is..
2nd
Thanks for checking out the Bronco review!
that doesn't have a solid front axle
I thought it did when I filmed it
Wrong generation
With what?
