📽: Town and Country TV-10 Things They Hate About The 6G Bronco!

[Username_not_found]

Some random crappy photoshop for y’all. Keeping me eye on the bronco prize!

Yes I got a tiny garage!

I feel you. I've measured my garage three times and the math says the bronco fits but boy looking at my garage I'm just not so confident.

Take a watch see if y’all agree or disagree?!

Only one of these complaints apply to me and that is the rear A/C. They can keep the fancy driving features, my current car doesn't even have cruise control.

I can't believe cup holders didn't make the top 10.

The guy is an idiot, and he is inarticulate. He complained that you can't lock the rear doors or tailgate when the front doors are removed because the central lock switch is on the door. Who the fck locks a vehicle when the doors are off? If the switch were on the center console, a thief just reaches in and unlocks the remaining doors.

If you want to go idiot and lock the remaining doors, Ford's design is actually better because it will be harder to unlock the remaining doors since you will need the key or remote to do so.

I don't think he was talking about access for thieves, just the ability for the driver to access the other doors. Of course if the driver needed to get into the back he would most likely have the key fob in his pocket anyway.

Sorry, but I still don’t get why people complain the fenders are easy to steal. Yeah, they come off easy, which is nice for modularity. But who other than Bronco owners will know they come off that easy or how exactly to pop them off? Thieves typically go for easy stuff, something sitting in a truck bed or in plain view inside the car. And besides, what’s somebody going to do with such an inexpensive trim piece? Not to mention you’d have be a real pos to take them in the first place.

While easy, to get all of them the thief is going to have to go all around it, unlatching, hoping people don't hear the loud cracking and popping as it releases from the body.
Thieves don't like having to spend too much time pilfering and don't like loud stuff that draws attention.
So hopefully that along with the knowledge (at least at first) that mostly only owners will know how and how easily they remove will deter most of it.

Or they are going to be that patient type of thief who just steals the closest one. Then one day steal the next one off another one and so on until they have a set.
If we see Broncs rolling down the road with three flares we will know why.

But yeah. Anyone who steals/damages some one else's hard-earned stuff deserves what comes if they get caught...

This is being sold as an off road vehicle and A/C in not important when you have the top off. There is a down size to to many bells and whistles. I can't wait till mine arrives in 22!

Then just leave the other doors unlocked...

Car doors automatically lock when put in drive, maybe the rear doors don't automatically unlock when put in park. If there's no button to unlock inside the car then you have to unlock with the fob.

I'm sure locking/unlocking function is programmable, most new cars are that way.

Let's hope so, but who knows since they only designed 2 cup holders into it lol

I love ACC I definitely prefer it on longer drives now that I have it. I don't have a stop and go function but in all honesty I am hitting the brakes in a drastic slow down/stop situation low before the car is.

I am bummed about not having cooled seats.

I missed one somewhere but..
1: Stop and Go with Adaptive Cruise & Lane Centering.
2: AC vents in the rear
3: Fenders getting stolen
4: Stick only on the 2.3
5: Door locks when doors are off.
6: Sta-Bar Option for all SASQ
7: Non AC Seats
8: Soft tops no plumbing
9: Winch blocking the 360 camera.

1. I love ACC and very much prefer it on drives longer than my work commute or errands. I am stopping long before the stop and go would work so that is not a concern of mine
2. AC vent is still an odd decision to me but I won't spend much time back there
3. Aftermarket will address this
4. Don't want a manual, I shift enough on the motorcycle. Also this is a shared vehicle
5. Don't care
6. Getting a Badlands/don't care
7. Bummed but meh
8. Live in a state that can be -15 for days, #hardtop4lyfe
9. Aftermarket will address this

Seems like such small complaints but nothing new or unexpected.

yeah, I kinda have to agree. It's not to the same level, but the hitch cover on my Tahoe works in the same way where you just twist and remove. In theory anyone could just steal that too. In fact, when I first got the Tahoe and wanted to use the hitch I had to google how to remove it. So that strengthens your point about most people won't realize, or really care. It's not really gonna be a high return item.

Now, could I see asshole kids removing them just to be an asshole? 100% see that happening way before they "end up on ebay".

while I'm here... I think the only 2 on this list that I'm like meh on were the first 2. Adaptive Cruise & Lane Centering... The car is meant for offroading, not cruising down the highway. But to counter my own argument, most buying this car won't do much offroading? and will use it for cruising down the highway?

And yes, hate is a strong word. Plus no one really knows what they're going to 'hate' about the car until they actually have it. Then you'll likely find that one (or two) annoyance(s) that'll drive you nuts.

and oh, btw... my kids will do just fine without AC vents. They'll live.

That's the plan just need lumber prices to come back down to earth... So probably around the same time as I'll actually be getting my day 1 res Bronco sometime in 2024
