I'm hoping that wasn't the GPS /sat antenna we saw in the rear crossmember of the Sportbar in the reveal video...?
Did Ford give consideration to antenna location with regards to roof racks and topside gear mounting??

Correct. This is the antenna. If you notice it's actually behind where the roof rack will be on the 4-door... though reception could still be impacted depending on the angles or size of things on the roof.

On my jeep, I have a metal rack and had to reposition my sat antenna to retain reception.

Anything you place over this antenna will hurt satellite reception to some degree.
