Ford engineers should just stop and ask why? It’s not hard.

I guess it’s better to have the widow go all the down then
Yea i remember there were some cars in the 90s that doesn’t go all the way down because of this, and for the Bronco, you need them to go all the way down esp when you take your doors off and store them.

"Why is the owners manual in the radio? What if I had a dead battery in the middle of an area with no cell service. "Hey Hun what fuse is the headlights? Let's check the Sync" "

Because the "tree elves" said you don't need a paper one. The same bastard that hands out 1/4 sheets of neon paper for his Frozen Yogurt Yoga studio.

A fair number of those are actually fair questions.

Looks like the rear window triangle has been answered, so now I've learned a couple of things from this thread. (Didn't know about rolling down the windows with the fob.)

The placement of the window switches in the console has been discussed quite a bit. Reasoning being that the goal was to keep the doors themselves a simple as possible to minimize weight and the possibility of damage when removing/installing repeatedly.

Since you're going to want all the window switches accessible by the driver - and as stated you don't want to put a whole bank of switches in the driver's door if you don't have to - they all go in the console.

Sometimes I ask myself why? And after only 1200 miles here’s the list

Why the triangle at corner of the rear window? Is it to annoy the rear passenger resting their arm on the window sill.

Why have an analog and a digital speedo next to each other on the dash? DUMB

Why have ECO mode REALLY when your driving a brick? Give me Sport mode.

Why did they let the left handed intern design the steering wheel button placement. All the Fords I own the volume/source buttons are on the right. Menu buttons on the left. Not the Bronco.

Why does the auto AC at 69 degrees blow twice as hard as 70 degrees regardless of heat load.

Why does the auto AC decide from time to time to give you frost bite on your feet when the heat load is from the windows Why? Cold air sinks, Dah.

Why did Ford put a cabin air filter in? THE ROOF COMES OFF, Hello.

Why doesn't the owner manual tell you that if you unlock from remote and hold for three seconds the windows open? Page 78 owners manual

Why not allow the lock and hold remote feature close the windows?

Why does the dash panel auto dim but the Sync touchscreen stays bright?

Why when switching to a G.O.A.T mode then back to 2WD normal does the menu not revert back to My View, instead you have to toggle through the menu.

Why touching the brake pedal lightly doesn't deactivate the cruise like my F150 (brake lights) you actually have the apply some brake force to deactivate.

Why does adaptive cruise control continue if you open the door and lift your body weight off the seat and unbuckle the seat belt, shouldn't it shut off?

Why are the window switches mounted on the console, just because Jeep does? The 1st generation window cracks were on the door.

Why is it OK to have condensation inside the lens as long as it doesn't puddle or collect. Mine has fogging already and didn't even wash it yet. Page 95 owners manual

Why is the owners manual in the radio? What if I had a dead battery in the middle of an area with no cell service. "Hey Hun what fuse is the headlights? Let's check the Sync"

Why are phone notifications so loud? You can turn them off but not quite them.

Why does Ford think the fix for a poor windshield washer filler design is a tywrap to hold it in place. Mine was missing and filler neck fell off. Check yours out you have a clear or black tywrap?

Why didn't Ford put an engine cover over the motor? Your embarrassed to open the hood just looks like shit. Plastic intercooler piping.

Overall I’m happy with my Bronco I just need to stop asking why.
You have a Bronco? Thats cool.

Why did Ford put a cabin air filter in? THE ROOF COMES OFF, Hello.
Air quality has been consistently terrible out here in the west with the more frequent and increasingly large wildfires happening year round. I don't know why anyone would be upset that there is a cabin air filter when their top is on...

Do you have photos of what you're describing here?
