If you live in a non-urban environment, HD radio can be tough to find. I live in a state university town with a population of 60,000 and a regional population approaching 200,000, and we have no HD radio stations available here.

So, it's not quite as ubiquitous as HDTV...I know plenty of people who wouldn't know what HD Radio is.

I’m still in my 30’s and have never heard of this. I think age has less than being an audiophile to do with knowing about this or not. I’m quite happy with the Rockford fosgate system in my 2015 Nisan Titan. Hoping the Bronco at least competes with that and I will be plenty happy.
Radio? Dah! That’s so 1990’s. 😂🤣😅

I'm too cheap for Sirius.

Honestly, I just want to turn it on to my preferred HD only station and leave it.

I have the ultimate Sirius on one of my cars and regular on other the one lets me use the app so with wireless carplay my phone will mirror it to Bronco.

I didn’t even know HD radio is still a thing. I have the module in my PW head unit I will have to click on it to see if there is anything there.

It's getting turned off ASAP. Although I have it in my area the service constantly goes in and out . It's extremely annoying.

Wtf is HD radio?!!! Omg dude, it’s as big of a difference in analog TV and HD TV. Much, much, much clearer sound. Fuller sound. Better base, mid and high ranges.
Hot damn, I'll get to listen to those Van Vreedes TV Furniture Appliance and Bedding advertisements in
FULL HD QUALITY SOUND between every song.

The HD radio stations in my area are better than a lot of my XM stations, also no or very little commercials. So even the base stereo even has HD radio?

My Badlands Sasquatch Mid package (8" Sync4) does NOT have HD radio. It is in the owners' manual, so it seems this may only be for higher tech packages - perhaps the 12" screen?

My Mid definitely doesn't have it.

Which, the 4 speaker base system sounds like dog crap anyway, so can't tell the difference in sound quality. But I do miss the alt rock subchannel on the classic rock station.
