Of course power seats are only a part of the leather trimmed vinyl seats if equipped on a 4 door, the 2 door is only available with manual seats despite the price of the leather trimmed vinyl seat upgrade.

Also it only adds carpet if the vehicle would have come with the rubber hose out flooring. The Outer Banks for example already comes with carpet as standard.
That is all true. I would have paid the money just for the adjustable head rest. The base model head rest pushed my head forward in a way that was just not comfortable. I know this is body shape dependent because my wife literally can’t tell the difference.

I’m a pretty normal size though 5’10 and 190ish.

My wrangler has the same problem but offers no solution to the issue. Big win for the Bronco there.

I love this truck. Within a span of a few hours I hauled a tall dresser in the back with the seats folded down (practical), put the top down for a trip to Home Depot (convertible), switched to Sport mode for the ride home (power and handling), then went onto the beach for some 4 wheeling (rugged). This thing can do it all I hope to never go back to any vehicle that cannot offer so much!

99.9% happy here at ≈9200 miles. Had a minor valve cover leak fixed by warranty in 2 days, and while very comfortable and way more comfortable that other vehicles I've had, I've been slightly annoyed by the seat despite having power seats and almost infinite adjustability. 🤷‍♂️
I'll bite, please explain the annoyance?

The back of the seat base occasionally feels a little narrow I feel like I'm sitting on the seat bottom bolsters, the front occasionally feels a little high as if it's tilted back slightly despite how I adjust it.

They aren't uncomfortable, especially after a long drive, but they certainly aren't the most comfortable seats I've ever sat in either. After a long drive they are worlds better than the seats in my previous car.

I feel the same way. Some of the complaints even from professionals are just silly. For example saying the Bronco has "poor ride quality" is absurd (I'm looking at you Motor Trend), compared to what a Lexus sedan? I took a pass on some of Broncos competitors (Jeep, Tacoma, 4Runner) because the ride quality and handling was too much of a compromise for a daily driver. I don't feel that way with the Bronco it exceeded my expectations. Its also absurd to think a removable roof and frameless doors isn't going to have some compromises. The Bronco excels at what it is, being a BRONCO. If you want a luxury car or sports car, look elsewhere.
Yeah, some of those reviews drive me nuts. Oftentimes, it's somebody that took it home for the weekend and went through their standard car review checklist. Of course the best car for that checklist is a mid-sized sedan with the middle-of-the-road options package.

I read a Bronco review a few months ago where the biggest complaint was the tire noise from the 35s on the highway. They should have titled the review "I'm really used to one thing and this thing is different"

I hate how happy this makes me! I can’t drive anywhere without a big stupid smile on my face. Pretty sure neighborhood thinks I’m crazy

2600 miles on mine and I love it. Have not seen another one like mine so it gets A LOT of stares. It's like having three types of cars. Eco is the equivalent of my Fusion Hybrid drive wise (without the mileage obviously). Normal is the fun drive around town mode. Sport reminds me of my Mustang, very responsive. Yes it's loud, yes the mileage isn't great but I knew that going in and still have a smile on my face each time I drive it.
We are so happy to hear that! Glad you are loving it. :)

Did you read the OP's original post? Go elsewhere and leave us happy folks alone.
Who said we were not happy, some of us want everyone to be happy.
