Our Take:
- The 1993 Oldsmobile Bravada was one of the earliest attempts by General Motors to blend luxury with the ruggedness of an SUV. It came with an all-wheel-drive system called "SmartTrak," which was pretty advanced for its time—like having a weatherproof jacket that still looks good at dinner. This model rode on the same platform as the Chevy Blazer, but it sported more upscale touches, making it a unique choice back in the '90s.
- Featuring a 4.3L V6 engine, this Bravada has been beefed up with performance parts such as a torquer cam and billet rockers. This isn't just your grandma's grocery getter; it's got some muscle under the hood that's ready to rumble. Boring the engine 0.060 over also shows a bit of love for power—it's like giving an old dog new tricks.
- With only 98,977 miles on the body and just 11,000 on the rebuilt engine, this car has plenty of life left. Just think, in terms of road trips, this Bravada hasn’t even graduated to its midlife yet. It's also noteworthy that the front suspension has been redone and five new tires installed—practically a new lease on life for the old beast.
- Air conditioning and heating systems were recently overhauled, a welcome update for anyone who's ever had to drive through a hot summer or chilly winter. If you've ever questioned whether older SUVs could still keep up, here’s a relic that runs and drives "better than most new vehicles"—according to the seller. That's a bold statement, but those who've owned a well-maintained classic know it's not entirely out of the question.
