The only people looking at this right now are enthusiasts, why put something out that isn't ready for prime-time. They got over their skis on this release.
If your asking me why they would do that, well I don’t know why, only that Manufacturers do it often, they always have that disclaimer of “ it’s preproduction so may not look exactly like this.”
I did see in one of the Ford videos it showed full digital dash.

So we finally get the Filson release that was teased in the launch roll out, but still no Modular Hard Top.

Ford, until you offer the modular hard top or a sky active on touch clone, I have bought my last Bronco.

Kicking rocks at Ford, Jeep Recon Finally got the modularity convenience spot on.

Love my Bronco, hate all the tops.

Seriously? Not paying attention? All of the painted hard tops ARE the Modular hard tops.... they have been an option for a year now and this model seems to have them as well.

I wish there was a black/charcoal interior option for this, something that looks good with basically any exterior color.
I wouldn’t be surprised if there end up being multiple Filson interior accent colors. Maybe not at launch, but only makes sense with a premium buyer. Filson has long time experience with durable materials.

I like it. Look forward to the aftermarket finding a way to mimic the ventilated front seats. Heated rear seats seems like a waste. The rear isn’t exactly a lounge area that anyone would want to spend a lot of time in. We have heated rears in our Merc GLS (which is a lounge area) and they never get used.

Will be interesting to see how it drives, how they mapped the 10 speed differently to be a little more road friendly. Not that it’s not.

But, in just my own opinion, it’s not a car I’d pay $75k for.

The unicorn Bronco has become the ones with just the rear locker 4.27 ratio.

Not really - I think he's referring to the ability to remove the side rear windows, which was what made it a "modular" top over the regular one. Painting it doesn't mean mod.

Factory digital rear view mirror seems like a cool addition. It's switchable even. Hopefully that's a component we can port back to older models.
I was trying to figure out where they're mounting the camera for it, but couldn't see a second camera lens in any of the promo shots.....it does seem like these two were cobbled together, though, without the full equipment (another example is the supposed unique trail sights, but they don't look any different to me, and one would think they'd highlight them with a photo if they had them ready).

I've had a few times on cooler nights with the roof off (and/or doors) where rear seat passengers would appreciate the heated rear seats.

I am just trying to tell you.... THE PAINTED TOPS ARE THE MODULAR TOPS THAT WERE PROMISED....
The MIC tops do not hold paint well.

The MOD tops were offered with the removable windows for a few months in mid 2023 (I have one) but the adhesive that holds the pivot points in place was failing so they had to remove that feature.
