Given it is too late for anything to change, but we don't know what is there.....

What all are you hoping is there? Minor things I mean.

I would like to see the ability to remove/replace every body panel. I mean rear fenders mostly, but also replaceable panels for the rockers, pillars, etc. This would be to replace rock-bashed parts, or to keep rock bashed parts to put on when you are going out to go play.

Also, the ability to turn a lower trim Bronco into a higher trim down the road, with bolts/screws. i.e. have the same bolt holes/weld points/mount points between different trims, or as much as possible to facilitate this. Understandable that this would not likely be possible if they have SFA and IFS options.

The room to fit the 5.0 for those with the cash to do so, without having to do major cutting, like the frame cuts to fit a 460 into the 80s Broncos for example.

I went and drove a new Raptor today.

If they can't come close to that feel and panache...I'll just buy a Raptor instead of a Bronco lol

Also, that stereo was the best stock stereo I've ever heard.

No carpet interior, easy wash. Fold flat rear seats. Buttons and knobs for climate and stereo, touch screen for CarPlay/Android Auto but that’s it. Removable panels for extra switch gear. Steel bumpers. Easy maintenance: oil filter location, etc. Want a standard to have a traditional longer floor mount shifter like a truck used to, not a center console with a short shifter like a sports car. Transfer case manual shifter, no electronic knobs.

Hoping all the modern driver aids are optional and not standard so those of us that don’t want them don’t have to pay for them.

Buttons and knobs, underrated. I dislike my current system which is 99% touch in Explorer. At least have knobs/buttons for the climate. Touch for that is maddening while driving.

I agree, too bad not many people wanted their bronco as wide as the Raptor.
Those FOX love valve shocks are amazing, they’re also super expensive to replace hopefully performance is there and the top trims won’t have to ditch them to get additional lift or travel.

I had to think about this one for awhile. I'm a pretty basic guy, function first. I'll take a plain vinyl seat as long as it, reclines in the front or folds flat in the back. I don't need leather, but other people like it, I'll trade my leather for e-lockers front and rear, good street manners and LOCKED when you need it! :clap: I'm one to not be on the techno side but the e-lockers much better than the old Detroit Locker's street manors. I'm a knob, switch, transfer case lever, shifter to the floor kinda guy too. I don't need it to be fancy I need it to not leave my stranded 100 miles from civilization because the knutter valve didn't get the right amount of fluid sending the ECM into "limp mode", which caused me to loose momentum during a steep rocky climb which in turn cause me roll over. …….. Sorry I can get off track. …………………...…. no carpet, That's what Line-X is for … same as the exterior, no fancy paint, Line-X !!! sorry I know I'm boring. I came form the KISS school of thought. I guess it's a thing of importance for me, although if I have that stuff I use it. I just don't need it. That is why for me it comes down to.....
what options I can get for my money …….. I am banking that I will be able to get what I want with having to go full tilt 55K+.

I will just have to wait and see how the options stack up. I just need to figure it out before going to the dealer so I can get what I want, not what the salesman, who knows nothing about off-road, tries to tell me what I want or worst yet tries to tell me " oh … in order to get that you have to order this $1000 package" when I don't, he just wants to make more money off me.

Like everyone else here, I want simple and practical. I want knobs and buttons, not menus on a touch screen.

Things I don't want:
Auto start stop garbage. If you must include it, let me permanently turn it off.
Automatic braking and lane keep. No safety Nanny's, I'm the driver not a computer.
No Carpet. Metal, rubber, bed liner, anything like that for the floors.
Let me turn off the seatbelt chime/alarm


Things I would like:

Manual transmission. Probably highest on my need list
Keyless entry and ignition. I've been spoiled and love leaving my keys in my pocket
Automatic headlights
Lots of USB ports
Heated seats and wheel
Lockers front, center, and rear
Under side armor
Front bench seat
Optional 3rd row seating in 4 door, easily removable
Small wheels but large tires. None of this 20 inch wheels crap

So much this. I put the smallest possible rim on all my trucks. I like sidewall. I looks better, it feels better, and it performs better off road. Now cars, thats a different story, but even then I do like the look of sidewall.

Nicely done.

This... minus heated seats and plus CarPlay for me.

I’m also 50/50 on the transmission choice @ this point

I miss my old manual 4.0 Ranger, but I also hated commuting in that thing after a awhile.

I'd prefer Analog. Basically, the less electronics I have to worry aboot, the better

Lockers front and rear.
Rotary gear shifter and 4A mode in addition to 2H, 4H and 4L :)
Heated steering wheel and seats.
No sticking out display
