Aw, thanks guys!
Actually, my vehicle is a 1986 Ford Bronco II. It's the original compact SUV, while the full sized Bronco was a shortened Ford F150 pickup.
It's dimensions (length, width, ground clearance) are about the same as the original WWII Willys Jeep. It weighs about 1000 lbs. less than the current Jeeps, which cancels out some of the disadvantages of running street tires.
It's main disadvantage is it doesn't have quite as much ground clearance as the Jeeps. I scraped bottom a couple of times today, but the skid plate protected the critical parts. The only damage was to the towbar electrical connector, which was mounted underneath the tow bar baseplate. When I replace it tomorrow I'll move it above the baseplate.
In 1988, Consumer Reports gave it's first "Not Acceptable" rating to the Bronco II because it has a tendency to lift the inside rear wheel on sharp, high speed turns. If you drive reasonably it's fine. Ford decided to discontinue it and the used prices dropped through the floor.
Until a few years ago you could buy a Bronco II for a song. I bought one up in WA state 10 years ago in perfectly good condition for $1500. I gave it to my stepson after the divorce, and 4 years ago I bought the one I have now for $4000 all set up and ready to flat tow.
Now the millennials are re-discovering the Bronco II. I turned down an offer to buy it when I was in LA, and last night I drove by a group of young people in Silverton and heard a girl say to her boyfriend, "Now that's the kind of Jeep I want."
