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. So they just couldn't get the extra 2 inches in overall length to make it fit, got it.
Why have an analog and a digital speedo next to each other on the dash? DUMB. For those that like the vintage look you didn't fuss about window cranks not being an option. Still DUMB
Why have ECO mode REALLY when your driving a brick? Give me Sport mode. Go to Baja mode and select 2WD or 4A to do the same thing. Why?
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. Blah, Blah Radio on right menu on left except if you drive a manual then you want it the other way cuz your to busy shifting.
Why does the auto AC at 69 degrees blow twice as hard as 70 degrees regardless of heat load. This was not a sexual reference, cool Easter egg
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. Couldn't afford an air duct and two vents in a $50K vehicle.
Why did Ford put a cabin air filter in? THE ROOF COMES OFF, Hello. West coast forest fires, You folks need more help than just a cabin filter.
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 It's was a secret, not any more. If one window is down just a little this feature doesn't work, Thanks Ford.
Why not allow the lock and hold remote feature close the windows? Blah, Blah kids stick their heads out the windows and the auto reverse feature isn't enough.
Why does the dash panel auto dim but the Sync touchscreen stays bright? dash and Sync should have a common light level input instead they are separate and work independently of each other.
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. Just more work
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. You tailgaters out there really hate when I touch the brake to deactivate the cruise when I can just press a button on the wheel.
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? Ford lawyers looking into this now, was asked to verify and sent video to unnamed person. Do it yourself, find one on dirt mountain to test it on.
Why are the window switches mounted on the console, just because Jeep does? The 1st generation window cracks were on the door. How do you close the rear windows when the front doors are off? Window cranks
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" Dumb example here, and yes it saves the trees and easier to update the manual.
Why are phone notifications so loud? You can turn them off but not quite them. Adjust the phone volume doesn't work on Android Auto.
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? Over torqued bolt flexes little press lock fitting causing it to pop out, so tywrap it on.
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.
