I feel like this should have been mailed to me in a discrete, plain brown wrapper. :rolleyes:

My 2019 Raptor unlocks all 4 doors when I approach the driver door.... without touching anything. Note that I have "autounlock" enabled in the menu, which might affect this feature. I assume that it unlocks so you can immediately open the back door without first touching the front door handle (that is why I like it). However, if you lock and immediately want to unlock, the front door handle sensor must be used.
Hm, then you have an enigma lol. That's not how Ford systems work lol.

Does Apple CarPlay not come standard on all models? I was under the assumption that it did but I see an asterisk on p5 related to CarPlay / Android Auto for "if equipped".
It does, but to get the wireless CarPlay you need the Mid package. On the base you need to plug your phone in.
The order guide says even the base has wireless.

I thought maybe that was the difference they referenced here, but likely just a copy/paste from other Ford documents.

That is so yahoos don't kill themselves or someone else through mis-use. The reality though is that if you are under throttle, the locker will most likely stay engaged until you back off. Gearing under load just doesn't like to change position no matter what the computer says.
I hope you're right and we can't discount those yahoos. Certainly true with a mechanical locker but I'm not as familiar with the newer electronic systems. Even if it doesn't automatically disconnect we can expect the "differential not available" warnings and chimes to start ringing.

Scanned through this thread and didn't see anyone mention the rims. Is this the first look we have seen of the bead locks? They are different than the trim rings we have seen. Maybe I am behind.

Also to note, this is Fords second official document that does not have any pictures of two door.

On your link (originally posted in 2019), the visual in the article shows Ford still listening to the same song (I KNOW the marketing team wouldn't recycle 2+ year old content for the coolest new vehicle on the planet, right?!).

I wonder if this will be the only song that the Bronco will be able to play? :)

I learned early on to be careful what photo I used for my wife in my i-Phone...when her photo filled the screen when she called me one day...everything is PG now.

The kids grew up a little that day. 😄

A minor note. I was curious how bad the wind buffeting would be in a 2 door with only one window down. Apparently it is bad enough to have a mention in this guide for a corrective solution. Not a big deal, just interesting.
Lots of fun information here. Can't wait to get my hands on the actual owners manual.

FWIW, I clicked on the "Need printed copies?" link on Ford's site and it took me to Helm's site where I entered 2021 Bronco and it lists several manuals for the Sport but then there's one that says 2021 Bronco Owner Manual FULL - French and Item temporarily unavailable. The item will be available on 2/28/2021.
Helm Bronco page
So maybe the owner's manual will be available to order in the next couple days and perhaps also posted on Ford's site? :geek:
...and hopefully a copy in English. I personally don't speak French.😁

From my experience with my last two vehicles, they don't even like disengaging 4x4 if you have any throttle pressure let alone the diff. I'm at least hopeful.

Jeff, we would probably need a couple more ink cartridges, and a few reams of paper to finish the job.
Um, just used my employer's paper & toner to print this guide. Oops.😏
