It actually helped with the wind noise that I had. The only time I notice wind noise is when there is a headwind, but for all intents and purposes I AM driving a brick. :)
YES!!! Agreed. I have also thought that a design that would slide into the seat or clip into the anchors would be nice...
Same here. We got one chip after a week of ownership, but nothing since we installed the hood - nothing. Over 34 K miles and still the same windshield (we did a DIY kit to repair the one spot)
There are a few that I have a love/hate or hate/hate view of:
Husky rear floor mat - It is molded about 1-2" higher than the hump in the floor so it just collects dirt underneath that area. The designer/engineer sent a new mat, but it has the same issue. BUT I love the extended coverage over...
A rear cupholder option that isn't on the floor.
A throwback bench console cooler type of thing that could click into the anchors or be secured to the seat in case of sudden braking. - That would be magical.
Had a few rain storms soak my cargo area twice last summer. The second one filled the storage compartment under the cargo mat with water. I just pulled the drain plug, put all the mats out on my driveway so the sun hit them and the cargo area and it all dried out in an afternoon.
I have the storage bag that will hang on the back seat. It works perfectly so we can travel somewhere (the beach) and keep the windows out when we have unloaded the stuff but have the windows handy based on the forecast.
Does this work around of closing the dash vents help with the rear/under seat vents? We were sweating from the hot air coming out at us while our kids had only cold air coming out at them this weekend.
I got the Ford mats with my Bronco, but I didn't like that they did not go up and over the door sill opening so dirt and stuff would get trapped in the gap between the mat and the bottom of the door (this was also an issue with my explorer that I had before).
I ordered Husky mats because they...
My windshield got chipped the first month I had my bronco.:( We did a DIY patch for that and promptly got a deflector for the front of the hood only.
Next month will be 18 months of bronco fun with the same windshield and no further chips or cracks. (y)
The new soft tops have a seam on the top corners that go down each side... that makes a difference in my opinion.

Same battle that I fight. For me, I kept BB wheels because I hate the grill more than I dislike the wheels, so I would rather put $ just for looks toward that.
Completely subjective. :)
I got a chip within one month of getting my Bronco last July. We patched it and installed this deflector. We have had numerous hits of other rocks/bugs/ etc through the last 14 months... not one additional chip.
This will definitely help!
