The Pacific Green from Ford was a big hit in 1995 and 1996... my family loved and kept a '95 EB Explorer in this PG/tan combo for 15+ years. \n\nAs the former owner of not one, but two, green/tan EB Broncos ('92 and '93) I have to admit the slick '95-96-only molded front steps were sorely missed the first time I stepped up into a '95 EB and was amazed how much easier it was getting inside than my Broncos or F250s.\n\nEDIT: I keep looking at all the interior pictures and exclaiming \"OMG!\" at how beautiful, perfect, and pristine all the factory saddle leather is on this gorgeous mint example. The saddle leather on my '93 5.8L EB didn't look this nice (tan cloth on '92 EB) once I hit the 30-35K mile mark... I ended up putting $400 sheepskins on my fronts at 55-58K miles to prevent tears in the perforated leather sections, and kept them there until I sold it at 195K in 2008. \n\nFor what it's worth... the 5.0 Broncos are great trucks... BUT... the 5.8L models (especially EFI with E4OD) gives you all the 5.0 engine's fun, plus plenty passing power going uphill without downshifting. =)\n\nFrom a practicality perspective, the 5.8L also likes 33s and 35s on the factory 3.55 gears while 5.0 models prefer 30-32s unless you hunt for 4.10s or 4.56s.\n\nBest of luck to all!
