A la carte ...
disco sway bar
Front locker
B&O radio

A black roof
A painted roof
modular roof

fog lights on a steel bumper

lighter color interior - hot sun on black material = 2nd degree leg burns

it would be very nice to have the high package and washout interiors across all trims. hopefully that’s reasonable. if not we’re still going to order and be happy with our bronco! thanks for this thread Nick.

Badlands: an alternative to the HOT and boring all-black interior.

 

[BroncoKong Jr.]

All I really want is a lighter interior for the Badlands, but I realize that can't happen before launch.

And X Plan.

In addition to the Cold Weather Group mentioned above, I'd like to see a stand alone B&O sound system.

This might be a B&P bug but if the Signature Lighting is an option on Big Bend it should be an option on Black Diamond.

Something that probably won't be addressed but I'm not a fan and I've seen others mention the fact that the MIC top doesn't match the B pillar.

 

[Boxer4]

Fix the simple B & P items like the 10sp auto pricing and work into the rest. Update daily if needed. Maybe put up a live Bronco Specialist for a few days or expand the product FAQ section and refine answers as questions are asked.

Well done... I like it.

Hopefully this doesn’t turn into a copy and past of everyone’s complaints. Of simple words as I have seen already on this one.

Also if it is Known to be late availability no need to complain....you know it, they told you, and it’s for a reason on there side....let those go.

- QUESTION: Sound deadening on the MIC on all 2 and 4 door. Why not Sasquatch?
- QUESTION: Why not Paint Protection Film on all models and Squatch?
- REQUEST: Better comparison pictures (Side views of each trim with regular tires vs Squatch, each type of tail light, videos of each type of light (Signature vs standard, standard tail vs. LED tail)) etc. Have the comparisons done at the same angles so that perspective does not come into play.

This is probably the first time most have factory ordered a vehicle, so they want it the way they want it. A lot of the complaints are Model related, you can't get this with that particular model. Opening up more ala carte options to all Models would more likely than not eliminate most of the grievences. For example, can't get a trailer hitch on a base? If @futzin' you order a tow package, it should have the springing to be able to handle more than 3500, but the trade off will be a harsher ride and stiffer articulation. You should be able to make those choices...

 

[Austin26]

A standalone option of 17" alloy wheels with 33" A/T tires for the base.

Option of a rear locker for the base.

Option of Advanced 4x4 on Big Bend (base would be nice too)

Option of fog lights on base.

I agree. And in order to be the most constructive I can be, they should send me a pre-production but running 2dr in race red to evaluate.

Honestly, it appears that Ford has given us a great product, if not exactly what each of us imagined (sure everyone is aware of my personal preferences, but I never expected those things to happen....really, why can't I have a 105 howitzer on top?).

There is inevitably going to be some grievances that get aired, we all had expectations, especially those of us who have owned multiple Broncos in the past, and there is going to be a level of upsetness? from things being different. i.e. first Bronco w/ no V8, no stick or TTB axles, etc etc.

Much of this I think will go away, I think it has been excessively bad here because of the long lead up, and, respectfully Ford, a dismal release. Albeit this year has been something else entirely, so I at least do not hold you at fault for many of the issues related to the release.

We see the similar things in Mustang boards, or any other boards with a true die hard fan base. Shoot, people on M6G are already up in arms over mere rumors surrounding the 7th gen Mustang, the S650 on a non dedicated platform.

I would like to appeal to the users of B6G to remain calm and at least somewhat understanding. Unfortunately and Fortunately, Ford is a very large company, a corporation. If you've ever worked for a very large corp, there is a disconnectedness that happens, has to happen from top to bottom to keep things running smoothly and fairly. I do think that out of the corps this size, Ford is one of the best at really listening to customers, but doesn't straight out pander to them. Be glad that Ford did not give us a blue oval Blazer. Or that they haven't done to the Mustang what those little boys wearing bowties did to the Camaro, which is up for a second cancellation...

Please try to be constructive in your complaints or criticisms about trim and option selections, namely the interiors, that has been a big one right now.

Remember that for legal reasons, they cannot divulge reasoning behind everything, like the discussions right now about the GVWR concerns. Remember that the 5th Gen Bronco the tops were 'not removeable'. They were, Ford just couldn't tell us they were and had to put in 'adequate' measures to make sure they weren't.

Ford has been listening, we have seen already many places they have been. White tops, ManSquatch. Some of these things are simple, some take up some serious engineering time. there production process is complex, so even a simple change, like tops, may not be something they can create at the flip of a switch. Also, they are a business. It does make sense to have late availability options, or new versions in a year or two. They aren't trying to screw you out of your money (I mean...kinda...yeah...but...business is business)... They are trying to appeal to as wide of an audience as possible while paying homage to the original Bronco.

and I applaud them for that, so far it would seam that they have given us a truly modern Bronco. Except for that blasted swing gate. someone better come out with a tailgate conversion ASAP.

Ford, I do have some really great ideas that I think can fit into the existing framework, either as factory options, DIOs, Ford Performance, or separate aftermarket.

Take care all

Make options A la cart like we were promised. Or at least like your competitors...

• heated seats+wheel
• smart keyless entry
• safety (Blind spot, emergency braking)

 

[THEMANatwar]

My big things that I'd like to see:

• Power seats with washout. Like others have said I dont plan to literally hose down the inside so I'd like washout without having to go leather. Make it available with MGV. It hurts me to spend big money and have manual seats
• More a la carte from the packages. I dont really need some of the Lux items but I'd love to have the wireless charger and garage opener separately.
• MIC black top. Not sure why this wasn't the color from the beginning.
• Cooled seats..

 

[BroncoBoy22]

If the accent colors were selectable. Or at least stitching, could be opted neutral.

This. Simply get rid of contrast stitching for plain white or grey and that solves lots of problems. And that can be done before J1.

MUCH EASIER for the customers to switch out the accents held on by bronco bolts
