Is the 12" screen really an upgrade we all want?

[Blitzinger]

8" is totally fine (that's what she said)

but my wifes tiguan has an 8" screen and its perfect. 12" is too much (that's...well you know)

Wait a minute is it not an option to get a turn knob radio? Now I need to reconsider my reservation ?‍

...A great plus is it does NOT accept group texts, so I'm exempt from all family squabbles...

HAHA, there is something we could all benefit from

Why no 10 inch screen option?

Yeah! And what about 9” and 11” screen choices? C’mon Ford this is BS. Where are all the choices?

I want the larger screen for 360 cameras and trail cam/maps. I just hope it has an easier "screen off" switch for night time driving than my F150 which is accesed through a menu maze.

I was gonna be that guy, but you beat me to it, haha

I'm coming out of a wrangler with a basic radio and no options. I thought to myself "I'll keep things simple and low tech in the bronco" the more I see that 12 inch screen the more I have to have it. The 8 inch looks awkwardly placed as others have suggested. I'll be interested to better understand the benefits of the 12 inch screen beyond aesthetics.

I don't want a big screen necessarily

But I do want to avoid a big nasty looking trim piece that makes it mega obvious I have a low end model

It's way worse than blanked out buttons for options you didn't buy because the screen is so central these days

I think it's bundled with the 360 camera so.... Yes, yes it is.

And it nice to have a BIG screen when using the NAV or Apple Carplay/Android auto.

I've never used the NAV in my current ride, but then again I don't have Android Auto in it either.

yeah its irritating me a bit I want the 360 thats the whole point of whats new on the Bronco but Ford is making you pay a higher bundle package to get it.

 

[TommyTwoTone]

No one had that number because you had to pay if they called you.

That's still true today if you're not on an unlimited calling plan. You pay for minutes that are consumed whether you place or receive the call.

 

[calgecko]

100% want one!!!!!

 

[ausherpharmd]

The question is - later down the road will the 12" get some software updates that make it objectively better?

For me it comes down to this.
Do I need it? No
Do I want it? Yes
Do I want to pay extra for it? No

Yup

I can’t speak for “we” and neither can anybody else.
But, “I” do want the upgraded 12”. Buy once, cry once and you’ll have no regrets. ?
