Question Everything went haywire?

Any ideas? Last week my wife took my '96 bronco in town, but before she got out of our neigborhood the truck started running fun... no power, spitting and sputtering, she said the gauges on the dash all started to jump and all dash lights came on? she returned it home and shut it off. when I went out and started it again, nothing? it ran fine, still running fine.
I told her its because the truck doesn't like females drivers. all kidding aside, anyone have clue?

Maybe it was a loose nut behind the steering wheel. Just kidding. Sounds like an electrical issue, check all of you battery cables and connections. I've seen corrsion get down inside of battery cables and cause all kinds of intermittent problems.
