See the ranger is a little on the cheaper feeling interior to me. I’ll be willing to pay raptor prices for a bronco with nice plush trim package I really hope they offer atleast 1 trim package that’s super plush. This will be my daily and I want it to be as nice as a f150 raptor interior. I agree I do want toggle switches for electrical options added.

Using the space between seats in the Ranger as a reference, that seems unlikely. A midsize doesn't really have that third seat position to divvy up for arm rests and giant consoles.

I'm with you on the door though, that's one reason I was happy to see the relatively low belt line. It might still be comfortable to rest your arm there with the window up or down.
yeah, my 06 250 its too high for me to just have my arm resting there. then again, im a short sob

I like technology(even though it doesn't always like me). I would be happy if they did something like the Explorer. A smaller landscape screen standard with the 10.1 portrait for an option. They could even offer a base radio. I'd also prefer a gear selector knob instead of a lever.

In my opinion I would love to see ford make the Broncos dash and Interior look pretty close to this. Especially the display screen for center controls. I dig what dodge has done with there trucks and would love to see it the ford bronco. It would be nice for those who don’t dig this if they made a low minimal tech small center screen. Sorry if this has already been a thread.

Judging by the spy photos of the baby Bronco it seems you may get an interior similar to this.

It’s not bad but like the others have said on here I’d like the screen to be landscape and I’d also like the interior to be a little more bare and vertical. More Jeep like and early Bronco inspired.
I’m hoping for a more landscape screen mainly for my hope of Ford offering/featuring a front camera for off-roading like the Defender has. That would be much easier to look at and navigate with a landscape screen. Might be very wishful thinking on my part though.

Would prefer radio and heater controls (even if redundant from the main screen) that I can work with decently thick gloves on.

It will be interesting to see if Ford goes the same route as Wrangler with controls for the doors/windows.
I hope they don’t. I never really understood the purpose on Jeeps... why do you need window controls still in the car if the windows aren’t even on the car? Sounds like wasted real estate to me

Possibly to keep from having this many wires run through a quick disconnect on drivers door for master PW switch.

Not sure if Ford would multiplex in that situation, where theoretically, you would only need 2 CAN bus wires and probably 2
wires for power/ground to each door (and that would take care of PL's too). But then you need "control" module in each door.

Thats my reasoning too, less wires. BTW I hate you, 78-79 broncos were my favorite years. cant find them in decent shape for less than your left jewel around here

This is all I could think of, but really, there’s going to be wires running to the door regardless. As long as it’s all run through the same harness (which I’ve never seen a car door that isn’t) I don’t see any additional hassle

Seeing how Ford has spent years doing R&D on making interior components water proof I highly doubt it will be this type of set up

I hope it's not as terrible as the Ranger's, but it doesn't have to be as nice as a Ram's interior.

And I'll say it again, unpopular as it may be LOL...I'll be buying an auto, and I'd MUCH prefer either a column shifter or a shift knob on the dash. None of this giant center console shifter crap. It's useless and takes up entirely too much otherwise useful real estate.
