So nothing on the white top/grille options? I realize it's rumored but hopefully we get some concrete info on it soon

I need this especially in Cactus Grey body. Living on the surface of the sun for 7 months of the year (Florida), I can't commit to a giant heat sink for a roof. If it is only teased and will be a 2022 model option, then I'll wait.

Look good, although I’m pretty sure the FE will come with Automatic AC, remote start, and intelligent entry. As it has the Lux Package. Probably will have the keypad too, only options will probably be towing and engine block heater. Not sure why it says optional for the A/C on the web.

The more I see comparison charts the less I see the value in paying the upcharge to get a Big Bend vs. Base. The biggest issue for me are the wheels, and I'm sure that I'll find some other Bronco buyer who'll be changing out wheels and selling the stock ones. I hope it's not true that you can't get a tow package on the Base, but we'll see.

Active grill shutters close to make the air intake portions of the fascia more aerodynamic in situations (constant, low load highway speeds, etc) when airflow across the radiator is already sufficient. The shutters open up in situations when more cooling is required.

Ford already uses this on several vehicles and it’s very reliable on its own.
How do you get bugs off the shutters? We’re not even buggy by most standards but a road trip in the warmer months always produces new cleaning challenges.

Am I all alone in wanting a Big Bend grill on whatever trim level I end up with? It gets me in the feels almost as much as the washable floors.

Nice chart.

Missing LT285/70R17 M/T tire (33") available on Badlands if not others, by Goodyear as I recall. Also need "LT" in front of 285/70R17 A/T. The 285/70R17 is not a P-metric tire.

The shutters on Escapes turn 90 degrees into the incoming airflow when they open via a motor that drives a gear train, opening the vanes. I've replaced one on my 2015 Escape and I'm getting ready to replace the one on my 2017 Escape. My wife likes to hit packing curbs, breaking the shutters. With front bumper damage, it costs about $2500 to replace shutter and replace/paint the front bumper.

How is the tow package not an option on the Base (if it has trailer sway control and the site lists the same 3.500 lbs rating seems odd to not offer the cheap bolt-on hitch and wiring harness to earn Ford some extra $$)? Unclear what are guesses versus confirmed here... Really want to see the officially B&P.

The grille on the BB, OBX, WT, and FE are all one in the same. The only exception being the different color on the BB.

Where on the Ford site does it say you can get both the hard top and soft top? I would love that!

I made up this spreadsheet to make it easier to compare models and see what options are available for each. I hope you find it useful.

This may be somewhere answered buried in this thread. Been searching for it online and can't seem to find the answer.

Can you get the LED signature lights on a Base? We have a Big Bend and had to add it on as it was not a standard feature. It seems that you can not add it on a Base mode.
