Used Car of the Day: 1990 Ford Bronco II

by Tim Healey

Published: July 21st, 2025

Today we're back with UCOTD after a one-day hiatus due to travel. Today we bring you a 1990 Ford Bronco II that has been slammed and according to the seller, not only is it slammed but it "absolutely pounds".

We don't have a ton more detail here, though we can tell you it's been dropped four inches and is riding on 20-inch wheels. The seller also says that vehicle is clean inside and out and has the original engine underhood. That would be a 2.9-liter four-cylinder.

I owned a 1984 Ford Bronco II Eddie Bauer as my first car -- and it didn't look like this. It didn't run well, either. This one is hopefully a different story.

If you're interested, click here. You can find it in Battle Creek, Michigan for $20,000. Yes, that is not a typo.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

The color is nice. It reminds me of a factory Porsche color that I used to see on some 996s.

It does look nice, if you're into collecting Hot Wheels cars but it's totally impractical and the ride will certainly be garbage... If he had left it at stock ride height and put BFG All-Terrains on it he would probably be able to collect that 20k asking price as that would be a perfectly fine soft road vehicle for mostly maintained dirt/gravel roads.

Kjhkjlhkjhkljh kljhjkhjklhkjh utterly dumb use case .. lets jar, shake, thermally shock, cover in water, hammer, jump and violently vibrate all the things that combust and connect stupid amounts of current.

FreedMike …or maybe Kia actually looked at the thing and said, “my word, that thing is ugly and no one is going to buy it, never mind what it runs on”…
Probert Over 30,000,000 EVs have been sold this year. Many in America, sadly for your thesis. Whether the US wishes to participate in this tech moving forward, or not, others are. In essence we have ceded the world to China in this regard, and in yet another field we will be relegated to second rate moribundity. Happy days!!!!Oh - South Korea has halted billions in investment in the US. Investment that could have employed thousands of Americans. Good times!!!!Oh - last year some 4 million people died prematurely from fossil fuel pollution. Party on!!!!!
Fred Granted there must be thousands of parts in a car. I'm sure they are designing cars with computers and use a MRP system, so it's all documented. Do a querey and pull it up. Unless you they want to hide something.
