You can buy a simple seat cushion with a fan in it to blow air on your backside. I had that in my slingshot.

Why oh why did they not offer ventilated/air conditioned seats on the Bronco???? I didn't think it was going to be a big deal until today! I live in Tx and it is already well into the 90s here. On my way home today it was 92 degrees. Perfect weather for driving with the top and doors off. Felt great, not hot at all while driving the hour home after work. Sorry to be graphic, but the amount of back sweat and swamp ass I had after getting home was unreal. Is there any solution for this?

Take the top off ! It’s a bronco not a Maserati

I have leather heated and cooled seats in my f150....I love the leather but I was worried about burning my ass with bronco soft top being down...so I got the cloth seats
How are you folks holding up with leather/mgv seats with soft top when the sun is out?

My wife’s 2011 traverse had a On the buttons For the cooled seats and seemed to work better but since then things have changed. The 2020 blazer is def just moving air. Glad they make a difference for you is the vette.
They are different things cooled vs vented. Looking at the katskin setup looks like just fans to me
Do you know the difference between a Cactus and a corvette? A corvette has the pricks on the inside.

I don't know why anyone would have a problem with this being available as an option.

There are options that logically should have been available, like a seat that blows cool air through it as to reduce swamp ass or memory seats so you don't have the urge to strangle your wife after she drives your Bronco and you have to spend 15 minutes trying to find that perfect seat position again.

I mean you could make the argument that the Bronco isn't a luxury vehicle, but why not have comfort options if you want them? If YOU don't want them don't get them. While it's never going to be a sports car (having an option of paddle shifters would have been dumb) why can't it be comfortable?

As a convertible owner one of the first things learned, the top doesn’t come down when it is” hot” outside. Temperatures in the 90’s are not top down days.

Side note the bronco raptor I seen has paddle shifters

But then you would have to drive a Raptor.

Not to get too far off topic, but this. It's so odd to have power seats but no memory positions for them. It seems like you can never get the seat back to exactly how you had it after your wife or daughter drives it.

Paddle shifters are not just for sports cars. They can be very convenient to use on mountain passes (especially going down) and I think they could be useful for off road. It comes down to being easier to use than the gear selector to make those manual changes when needed. Not a necessity but a nicety.

It's very unfortunate but Ford has a bad habit of listening to people make these type of comments for a vehicle like of this type (built for off-road). This is how the first generation Bronco started out and then look what it morphed into by generation 5. People were complaining they want more and more creature comforts . Then it lost his true identity of what it was originally built for.

Agree in principle. But Bronco will not be a financial success for Ford, without all these other people buying. So Ford has to walk the line. But yes, hopefully down the road, Bronco doesn't morph into some bloated expensive pavement vehicle.

Cloth seat covers will help too
