The record

Ford put the Eddie Bauer name on the Bronco in 1985 as the luxury trim above the XLT and kept it on the 1987 and 1992 generations; it was the best-equipped Bronco of the 1990s and passed to the Expedition in 1997.

AI rendering impression

An AI rendering impression starts from a 3D model of this vehicle, which an image model then paints into a scene. It is an artist's impression of the type, made to give a feel for the vehicle in its element — not a photograph, and not a record of any particular vehicle.

Proportions, fittings, markings, colours and the setting can all drift from the original in the process. For the vehicle's actual details, rely on the specification, the photographs and the cited sources on this page.
