was just complaining about this today - the cargo area has become increasingly annoying, not sure whats making all the noise but sounds like the damn top is gonna bounce off when i hit a bump/pothole.

Try a Gen 1 hard top. You got all the squeaks and rattles you wanted and a lot you didn't. Never rode in a pick up or a roadster, so can't speak from personal experience from them. Gen 6's are still off road vehicles, some of that classification includes less than luxury vehicle silence...

My Bronco is a rattle trap and my new hobby is to chase down loose, poor fitting trim pieces and apply felt tape to fix. The good news is that I’ve made progress. The major pain points were the passenger sun visor, driver and passenger B-pillar post/aft. I’m now chasing a rattle in the passenger seat which only happens when unoccupied. I haven’t put any effort into the rear softtop rattles because softtop.

Front passenger door has had a nasty rattle for a few months now. Dealership has had it multiple times, once overnight, to try and fix it. Replaced the regulator. Still happening. I even tried the window alignment fix with the little bolts underneath the door.
Guess I'll let them keep trying, because it's very annoying.

Rattle trap is the perfect description. Isnt it fun wasting time on piss poor QC. I’ve had all those plus windows, tailgate, passenger door; hardtop (multiple), and others I’m forgetting. The worst was the fucking tailgate tick tick tick. I almost sold the POS over that one. Please post if you figure out the seat. Mine started that recently. Never ending.

None, but I don't really have any of the common problems so maybe that dirt mountain stay was a good thing afterall.

My bronco is whisper quiet in the squeak and rattle department - BUT, when I do accelerate from a standstill there is this slight "creaking" noise....its very subtle but i hear it every time....like there is something creaking in the engine bay.....(a GREMLIN???? MOGWAI???)

I think my drivers side window is the worst. When it’s rolled down a little bit and I get a bump the right way it seems like its gonna break, I can see it slapping back and fourth
