Are they signaling VB is a keeper?

Man I hope so!

Are they saying MGV will be available for all models, and not just badlands? Thats good news for future buyers. And love that blue....

I like that front bumper, that was in photos in 2020, and I hope it becomes available for aftermarket install on my OBX. I also like the fact that Missy & Co. are looking at other ways of imagining roof racks, that wont interfere with the soft top. And i like the positive post.

Call me jaded, but all I see is a desperate attempt to sell you on the soft top switch with more things you can't actually purchase.

Where did you get that from?

This concept is a Black Diamond which has the MGV.

Hoping Ford will have a wider spaced front to back bar option. Maybe the front bar on or near the windshield. Somewhere near the red arrow points in image below. For providing better support for longer items such as my canoe. Else I'll have to rig something up.

It's not sagging, it's mounted upside down... by Ford engineering interns no doubt. The future is bright!

Wasn't there supposed to have been a VB concept last year around the same time as the Filson concept was released, guess it was delayed if so.

Is it just me or are the tow hooks black in one photo and silver in another.

Ahhh photoshop

Nice photos with backdrop. That has never been a problem for Ford. But it leaves me to question if there are actually enthusiasts that they consult on these concepts. We saw in the fishing rig concept the fantasy of mounting a Yeti cooler on the rooftop rack. And here we see two surfboards mounted on the roof the wrong way. Fins Always Forward. Such a simple concept that Missy once again missed.

Whenever I see boards on racks that direction it driven me crazy, I always put mine with the fins at the front of the vehicle incase I stop short hopefully the fins will catch the straps if they are slightly loose. The other way they could potentially slide out the back. Otherwise I love the no top roof rack concept

I want one of these so bad... Wont be getting one anytime soon though.

Ah yah sorry. I keep forgetting about the Black Diamond. I think they should though. The Wildtrak with MGV would have been my choice if i could have picked it.

If you stop short, and the straps are loose, then the boards are going to go forward. The fins won't do much.

I usually put mine fin first just because that's "the way" but I, and many friends, have carried them with fins back with no issues.

If your straps come loose enough that the boards start moving around the fins probably aren't going to do much.

I don't have an issue with the boards in the photo.

It's not a true Riptide edition without these guys:

So I have a Ten10 mug in the mail and now this? All in the same week? Be careful Ford, your customer satisfaction program might be working too well.
