I’ve heard so much complaints about the headrests. I don’t get it. I never rest my head on them when driving. I would fall asleep if I did. 😂
On the low level trims, the headrest is not adjustable other than up and down. And it juts forward too much. So in effect, if you sit with you back against the seat, it pushes your head forward causing you to drive hunch-backed. 🥴

And don't get me started on how unbelievably uncomfortable it is if you put your ponytail in the center rather than near the nape of your neck or on the top of your head. But at least my ponytail is adjustable. 🤪😂

The Ford App does not open the car by just walking up to it. You need to open the App and hold down the unlock button. Takes at least 10 seconds to do. I’m talking about having the car unlock by just walking up to it.
You do have to touch the front door handle for the FOB unlock to work, dont know that I'd want what you are suggesting.

Yea but sometimes it doesn’t work well if you have low signal and sometimes it takes quite a bit to load and unlock. You are just standing there awkwardly next to the door. If you check out the Apple Car Key, you will see how nice it is to use the iPhone as a key fob.
Touching the handle isn't too bad for unlocking... Beats sticking a key in a lock.

A decent dash cluster with a dial tach. Like... oh I don't know, the Mustang or F-150

Otherwise, car has too much stuff froofy electronics as it is. Would really like a physical parking brake and manual transfer case.

What do you wish or would have wanted the Bronco to come with? Something that wouldn’t have drastically changed the car itself nor have a big change to the MSRP. I’m not looking for things that you can get on other trims nor changes that are easily done.
After 2,600 miles…
A solid stereo system (Lux version blows)
A hardtop on par with Jeep‘s top
A softop on par with Jeep’s top
Undercarriage that doesn’t droop so low
A stronger front end bits (a Badlands should be better)
Phone charger that works
Ditch goat modes

what does the Sport Screen have that you wish the Bronco had? The Bronco Raptor has the screen I wish my Bronco had. That one is sick!
The big and actually useful dial tachometer for one. Auto-magic only "Sport" has a tach, and my stick-shift full size Bronco has a barely readable bar graph.

It would be like a Tesla. You walk you to it and it detects your iPhone and unlocks. Or even for it to act like a key fob, you reach in the handle to open.

The phone chargers work fine.
Why ditch the Goat mode? If you don’t like it don’t use it. No point and removing it for others that do use it.

Abilty to put soft top all the way down, then back up again for security without having to remove rear windows.
Maybe a lightweight mesh panel option so I can put the roof up without having the rear wide open. I am looking for an aftermarket option for this. I don't want animals to be able to get into the vehicle etc.. taking the plastic windows off is too hard to do everyday, and I need to be able to secure the bronco. Just a light mesh would keep out animals and opportunity thieves.

A rock solid steering rack.
Quieter Driving Experience.
Replace Push to Start for a real key.
Power adjustable seats.
No engine stop start.
Default to Sport Mode option.

Right? Some of the people on here just need to sell their Broncos and move on or quit pissing and moaning. Seem like sad, bitter people. Glad I don’t live in that reality.

I also have a soft top but never felt the need to have to pull back the whole top.
Pulling it half ways has been enough for me. But I guess that is a personal preference.
The Bronco doesn’t need power adjustable seats, I’d rather have a hose down seat and floor than an adjustable seat with carpet floors.
You can buy an stop start eliminator or just turn it off every time you drive. Not a big deal.
You can kind of have it set as default sport mode. You just leave it on sport mode and click the ok button when you turn on.
But I do think this would be an easy add to have it set permanently if you so choose.

Yea no shit. You obviously don’t do much outdoor activities to understand why having a key fob can be easily lost. I wish I could unlock my car by just having my iPhone or Apple Watch on me. Saves me for having to car more stuff will Snowboard or boating.
Evidently I am not nearly as important as some people, because my phone doesn't work most places that I take my Bronco and my key fob is way smaller and zips into any pocket way better than a phone. I guess my outdoor activities differ from yours because mine don't require a phone.

The technology to make Bluetooth phone calls not be so loud for the person you are on the phone with. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes people say it's really loud background noise.

I would love a King Ranch trim.
