Ok.

I never reserved anything, just exploring options. Kudos to Ford for offering a manual at all I guess. I imagine in 10 years the manual gearbox will just be a memory us old guys talk about.

Yeah, autos have come a long way. Doesn't meant I want one. I've had manual sports cars that are no doubt slower than their DCT counterparts. Still far more enjoyable to drive the manual. As for the 4 cylinder, granted I haven't driven both Broncos. But go drive the 5.7L V8 in the Grand...

I hear you. It's manual or nothing for a vehicle like this. But there's no way in hades I'd pay $50k+ for a four popper. Wouldn't care if they boosted it to 400hp.

Very true. Guess I'll give it a year or so and see what happens. I'd like to think when sales slow a bit they'll offer the six cylinder with the manual. Who knows?

..and I really want a manual gearbox. But I have ZERO interest in a 4 cylinder vehicle. Should I just give up on a Bronco? Will they ever offer the 2.7 with the manual? Should I just get a Rubicon right now?

I like the color. God that top is an abomination.

This will be a great purchase in 2-3 years when actual desirable features become available. I admire anyone who would purchase a first year vehicle (much less from Ford) but that faded gray MIC top is a complete non-starter. Much less the horrible interior choices.

Not one? A vehicle designed for open top motoring has two top options, and Ford only reveals the hard top? This is so odd.
