I just wish some photos would make it REALLY CLEAR how the marine vinyl seat color options appear.

I (mistakenly?) thought that light-gray, near white shown in many photos was marine vinyl.

Even the photos of dark-colored vinyl interior have poor lighting (on purpose) to obscure it.
Rumor is you only have to wait a month to find out since the online configurator may be opened in August.

Same here. The other thread Iā€™m referring to (having hard time finding it) had a high res photo of the light-gray interior - some said it looked likely cloth, but they could be wrong. Havenā€™t heard anything definitive from Ford, other than itā€™s representative of what you can do (OEM options?)

Do you know if that apply to all trim levels, or just the ones with rubber floors/vinyl seats?

I'd assume so, but the carpet being so prevalent in the product line has me worried ?

It definitely looks like cloth in the videos

FWIW I was hoping it was vinyl because I love the look. But I think it's cloth.

Yep. That's why they say "leather-trimmed seating" or "leather-accented" and the like. The part you sit on is not leather.
I thought it was the opposite, that the only part that is real leather is where your butt and back go. But I dunno

Ah you're right. I got it backwards. You sit on the leather inserts and the rest is fake leather.
Yea but the actual leather you sit on has a vinyl coating on it for durabilitys sake.

My wifeā€™s car has white leatherette heated seats and they are way more comfortable then the leather seats that I had in my jeep GC.
Plus we have 4 dogs sitting and drooling all over them and they still look good 3 years on

there are so many threads with interconnected topics like "marine vinyl color" that I figured may be nice to post this photo here. Found it on a random e-mag article on new BRONCO features, etc. But unlike many this had high-res photos that could be zoomed-in

Noticed this one with Badlands badging and peak at interior with enough lighting to clearly make out shades (light/dark). This looks different than anything else that I've seen on topic of marine vinyl. The sheen, surface finish and "look" sure appear to be what marine vinyl would look like.

This seems to be a more contrasting combo of light gray and dark gray (near black). I like it.

It also looks like a rendering/CGI, so I wouldn't put too much stock into what you're seeing.
