I’m going to embrace the antenna and get a ball for it!

How dare Ford give us too many model options!!! I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore!

No rear cup holders and vents.

Entire video was a fail by not mentioning the cupholders. Give those Bronco haters something to latch onto!

Dude, I have never ever watched a YouTube video where the host hi jacks the watchers attention for a plug

 

[Natai]

That's actually a very good list.

I'd argue against the removable roof being a negative, as that's actually a big draw for many, but I can understand the opinion.

Well done.

I have to say that this guy does a pretty good video. Unfortunately, the stuff that bothers him borders on picky.
About the only real gripes in my view is the ac vents - tangible, real-world problem; #5 - for the 10% who will add a winch and #2 - for the rare chance they get damaged, by the 10% who might do that kind of off-roading. The rest of it is just window dressing and personal preference.
Do all these things really "bother" you? Really, a wiper blade and an antenna?

I agree, great video and great job. However most of his ten things are pretty petty. I have a Jeep Rubicon and if I created a list, it would have more that ten items and most would not be picky at all.
Anyone can create a petty list of things they don't like but come on. Short wipers!!?? really?? have you ever seen a really long wiper at the six o clock position on a short piece of glass?? LMAO. Antenna?? get a stubby!! we all like to modify our rigs. Well lookie there!! they left a project for you. The only real issues here are the rock rails but my Rubicon is the same, the bolts on the LCA's.........Id look to see if I can run them in the opposite direction.

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around an interior with large swaths of hard plastic in a 60k vehicle. 60k gets me a mid range Audi or even domestic pickup truck with an interior that is all leather and soft touch.

No memory seats!!??!!?? Are you effing kidding me??

Let’s be honest, if you are thinking about “what I can get for 60k” maybe this isn’t the right vehicle for you? I could get a c8 corvette for what I am spending.. but will I? No I want a bronco.

it’s 2021 almost everything is plastic to some degree

Not a fan of the Hate/Love videos on YouTube. The titles are always polarizing, yet the content is either some sort of muddied middle ground or ridiculously a non-issue. I get that it gets you clicks, but I do wish people would come up with more clever titles for these types of videos.

That said, you did a great job (as usual) and I look forward to your next video. As long as it's not '10 things I love about the Bronco'.

I think people are making too big a deal out of the rear AC vents thing (lack of). My F150 SuperCrew is a much bigger cabin, has similar front vent setup- 2 on the outside of the dash, two in the center surrounding the screen. Point the center ones up at the celing, put it on high and eventually the rear passengers are begging for mercy. We have driven from Louisiana to Colorado several times, three kids in the back seats, 12 hour plus days in the saddle. You'll be fine.

This is @Administrator approved. I know we are all excited for the new Bronco. I for one, cannot wait to get my hands on one and really put it through some paces here in Utah. I’m dying to redo the Pony Express in one. I think ripping those historic trails would be spectacular in a Bronco. But that doesn’t mean everything is roses and clovers. There are still a few things I’m not so found of. This is that list.
10 Things I Hate About The New Ford Bronco

Very well done man. There are things we all love and hate about the Bronco, for me you nailed them (minus the roof, but that's me). I think the 2-door could've been worked on a little more in regards to the back seats and maybe have been made a little longer to make it a bit more practical for those who just don't want 4 doors. But again that's me and I because of your video I actually feel comfortable saying things like this haha.

 

[Mama_Dropt_Me]

He only dissed on the Wildtrak because it has plastic bumpers..

True. But, in that comment he seemed to suggest that it was kind of a useless trim level. That’s all I meant.

By the way, I definitely don’t disagree with the sentiment - I hate the plastic bumper.

 

[Rubicon 2 Badlands]

Very good video. I agree to a point with all of them except the removable top...zero chance I would buy one without a removable top. FJ Cruiser would still be here and bought in droves if it had had one. It is THE most critical non-negotiable feature. It would fail miserably without it.

That said, all the others are valid and good points. Those LCA bolts are baffling, and I still don’t know what to do about them. I will add extra nuts to protect the threads...but to your point, how the heck do I prevent them from being sheared off? Someone will have to put out a little teeny LCA skid plate that bolts under them and just protects the bolts. Is that possible?

Maybe if someone came out with a direct stock replacement that had them recessed to protect them? Something, anything! So many options besides what they currently have shown.

 

[Wanted33]

Well done sir. Now, you have me thinking about things I didn't even know about. But, I would like to add #11. If FMC/Jeep can design a relatively flat rear cargo area when the rear seat backs are down in their 4 door, why of why couldn't Ford do the same with the Bronco?

If you lose both electrical power and hydraulic brakes, well, then you've got an extreme fringe case of "bad times."

That is an understatement!

Then go buy an Audi?
