I wouldn't call it a more entertaining place, but maybe more eventful. I'd rather see cows than the stupid shit I do capture on my dashcam.
Really! What that cow did to that convertible the other was EPIC!

It appears you just value it differently. What I call frivolous entertainment value you call "very telling and worth the price of admission". A rear camera doesn't help you in a rear end collision any more than the forward facing camera, it just gives you a good video to show people, i.e. entertainment.

You do make a point that it could be useful regarding maintenance work but I generally buy very reliable vehicles that just need standard maintenance so I see little value in that. As for damage, I've had my passenger side window smashed twice by thieves, they seem to show up just fine on my forward forward facing camera both times (not that it mattered since the police didn't catch either guy).
I see your point.. Seriously, I do feel the whole parking lot monitoring thing is important for the rear camera as I have had things happen that only the rear camera captured. I guess different experiences drives what one feels is important.

On the other hand, the interior mic is what is really the most entertaining. I have dash cams on two very different types of vehicles. A BMW M4 and a restored 1981 Jeep CJ5. The most fun is to go back and watch either a maintenance guy (CJ5 where he didn't know how to drive a stick) or valet person (M4 where he about crapped in his pants with excitement). Very entertaining....

I'm surprised more car companies aren't doing the Tesla thing and turning their existing camera systems into dash cams. A slightly bigger hard drive in the dash and a software interface to export through USB and bam! New $1000 option that's all profit. Hire me, Ford!

Um, I wonder if we'll see any pictures of some options, i.e. fender flares, graphics, etc.?

Here's the full 2021 Bronco accessories list with Ford original/licensed accessories and Ford Performance Parts!
Finally—I can sleep knowing that the Ford Performance license plate frame made the final list. Guess I won't need to cancel my reservation after all. Phew!

Curious if part VM2DZ-58521A03-P Headliner Kit, NVH for Hard Top, 4dr by Coverking for $369.00 is the same as the headliner offered on B&P? Coverking's site looks like very similar material for Jeeps.

A forward facing camera would show that you weren't backing up and disprove their claim. I really don't see the need for a rear view camera other than for entertainment purposes if you happen to catch an accident behind you.
Woods have trees you won't want to back into.

I recall them saying they weren’t going to offer limb risers even though they had them on the reveal vehicle.
It's just cable with a couple of t shaped connector's. Could even make them rod if you want.

I really have no interest in them but it's funny they would design such a prominent feature, the fender loops, to accept them and then not offer them.

Yeah, I feel like they will offer them in later years. I found it odd too. The loops do more than accept limb risers though they are also useful tie down points for a canoe, etc.
