I've had my Bronco for a week now and although I haven't been able to drive it too much one thing I'm noticing is the AC works really well. The last vehicles I've driven are 2017 Tacoma, 2020 Tundra, 2011 Cadillac SRX and the Bronco definitely has the coldest/strongest AC. It's been unusually hot and humid this week Bronco has been doing great.

Agree. Ford has always been good with A/C in my experience. It's much stronger/colder than the Mercedes SUV that I also drive.

That's good to hear, the ac was a bit underwhelming in both my Milans.

Does the Bronco still use R134A or did they switch to R1234YF?

Every Ford truck I’ve owned since 2011 has had some cold AC. Always appreciated that.

Bronco is the biggest cabin with good cooling effect so far compared to the two other Fords I have owned after Mustang and Fusion.

I 100% expected this to be a joke thread about driving around with the top and doors off.

We have a 2018 Wrangler and a Bronco. Wrangler heater is better. Is warms up faster than any vehicle I have ever owned but the Broncos air conditioning could double as a meat freezer. I love it. I would rather have a better air conditioner than heater. So I’m happy.

Just to confirm, you have the driver & passenger side, as well as the middle MIC sections on, and the rear MIC section off, and you're driving this way?

If so, be careful, this thread highlights the manual saying never drive with the front sections on, and the rear section off.

I do have them this way. They are attached super tight on there. they have guide pins and the hooks. Nothing is coming off.

I feel the same way.

Dont have my bronco yet, but I test drove my dealership's OBX. It was a hot day, turned on the AC and I was actually shivering. I think that means it works well! Lol
