Well an EV conversion would be the only way to get one of those out of its own way. There's a reason OJ's bronco chase was so slow... My ex insisted we get a mid 80's bronco, and it was so bad. I think it averaged about 6mpg and good god it was laughably anemic. If it was me, I would look for a early 70's or late 70's bronco. Totally different styles for each, but still better than the mid 80's anything.
I think OJ single handedly killed the Bronco as a car anyone with self-respect would own.
The image of that white Bronco rolling down the highway in the slow lane with a long procession of cop cars behind in second gear was one of the most iconic images of the 90s. You couldn't have picked a worse getaway car.
Funny they discontinued the Bronco after the associated bad press only to call it's replacement the Escape!
I guess they decided to lean into it.
My friend rolled one in highschool by taking a turn too hard
The 2-4000lbs that would make up the new floor would def change the handling.
fair point
