I enjoyed it. It was funny

On Outer Banks, if you get a 4-DR you have options for power seats and if you get the 2-DR you get a body color top.I'm looking at Outer Banks trim. Color choices are fine. Transmission is fine. I have access all the way up to the Lux package. Possible things I may have to compromise on:
1. No power seats (this is a bummer, but not by itself a deal-breaker for me)
3. What color top can I get? Cactus Grey body looks weird with the grey top. White would be my first choice and body-color would also be fine. If molded-in-grey was the only option, this could be an issue. I don't really want to spend more money having to pay a shop to paint the top.
If none of these issues is resolved, I could give up and wait and see if some of these are resolved in year two. If not, I may have missed my window.
Seems like a perfectly legitimate list of complaints met with suggestions of solutions to me.
1. edit: too much bitchin'I'm getting a kick out of all those formerly rabid Bronco fans and reservation holders now saying they are out whenever a new tidbit is floated.
because:
1. My color isn't offered in my trim: solution-change trim, different color wrap whatever
2. Can't get a manual with 'squatch: go Badlands, auto or wait because Ford is "listening"
3. Don't like the top color: Upgrade to Modular, wait for white wrap or paint
4. No manual with 2.7: Go with the 2.3 which has more power than any previous Bronco or go auto
5. Base 4dr price is for manual: This should make those who were pissed that Base 4dr wasn't available with MT happy, but nooo, just pissed off a bunch of others
6. Grille, headlights, roof rack, hitch(or other minor feature) on my trim isn't the one I want: Swap it out from the Ford parts counter or After market.
7. Towing cap. is too low: Probably shouldn't have been considering the Bronco anyway, get a Ranger or F150, remember most single axle trailers have a GVW of 3500 and you really shouldn't be towing a tandem with a vehicle like a Bronco anyway.
8. Interior isn't to my personal spec: Up trim or remember-this is a mass produced vehicle, there are only going to be a so many choices
9. My trim has/doesn't have carpet/leather/vinyl: change trim, After market
10. B & P isn't out yet: We got time, orders aren't out til; December.
Me, I'm a 2d Base, maybe Sasquatch, up in the air on MT vs AT guy, happy with the MIC top, carpet/fabric, grille, flares and modularity/upgradeability of the Bronco, I may pay for upgrade to Rapid Red . $28.5K for a vehicle with Bronco's features and capability is amazing! I'M IN!
I Could only find one Chair.@JAGSarge i keep coming here looking for fights, expecting chairs... And I see NONE of that.... Shut this thread down!
I am disappointed that Ford removed the painted modular hard top option from the 2 Door Black Diamond and Big Ben. I feel like it is reasonable for the consumers to ask Ford that the $1900 painted modular hard top should still be an option. Right now on their website it is no longer an option because they removed it.3. Don't like the top color: Upgrade to Modular, wait for white wrap or paint
My kids are already fighting over who will inherit it from me, and they've only seen pictures!
