To anyone that saw the truck in person at Rebel East, what are your thoughts on the build quality? Ford has a history of plastic fantastic interiors. I love the layout, but I wonder if the materials feels premium or not. Thank you.

I asked in person and got the Typical "We're Listening" response. Though the guy did seem to genuinely understand and agreed it was weird since the Sport has it.This is one of those areas where we shouldn't have to rely on aftermarket. If Ford is pitching the rubberized interior on the BD and BL as being easy to washout and not be an issue if you get caught topless in an unexpected rainstorm, the the entire interior should be vinyl/rubberized. Shouldn't be any carpet anywhere.
Especially since they seem to have gotten this right in the Sport (which doesn't have a removable top).
Hoping someone can ask about this and get a good response from Ford. Absent that, need a lot of someones to ask about this so Ford fixes it.
I was kiddingI only saw a few comments here...were there more?
If you don't need the lift for articulation (this is an "overlanding" build, not a rock crawling build), then it's better to keep the center of gravity lower...I wonder why Ford would present this rig without the sas lift coils?
Does anyone have a plausible explanation?
If it's already been covered, apologies in advance.
Nevermind rock crawling..I think that thing would have a tough time not rubbing on a mild trail.If you don't need the lift for articulation (this is an "overlanding" build, not a rock crawling build), then it's better to keep the center of gravity lower...
...and also it looks BAD ASSSSSSSSSS.
Little late to be "exploring" this when it should be standard with a supposedly wash out interior.I asked about the back of the rear seats. He said it was carpet in this one and that the Sport has the rubberized backing. They really like that and are still exploring it for the big Bronco.
I will also add that all of the seat are marine grade vinyl. We got a chance to touch them. They were great. I am going to be very happy with them.
And is already on the Bronco Sport. What a maddening oversight.Little late to be "exploring" this when it should be standard with a supposedly wash out interior.
I agree. Maybe it is something that they are setting up to be an option that they will announce when B&P comes out?Little late to be "exploring" this when it should be standard with a supposedly wash out interior.
Pretty sure the auto trans doesn't have a roulette wheel spinner for changing gears. They both have the wheel for driving modes though.The likely reason they keep showing the 2.3 is that it comes with manual transmission. The cockpit looks way cooler with an actual stick shift instead of what looks like a roulette wheel spinner.
Better check again. The 2.7 Auto has a larger dial with the GOAT dial closer to the console.Pretty sure the auto trans doesn't have a roulette wheel spinner for changing gears. They both have the wheel for driving modes though.
