More Interior Options & Colors -- Ford CEO Farley is listening to Bronco6g members!

[Boxer4]

I initially thought that they designed these interiors, like they were kids trying to prove themselves. Then, when I watched the Bronco Nation video -- interior walk-through (both YouTube and also posted here, on 6g), I found out that the Interior Design Manager appears to be a young woman, from BN, that has no comprehension that we would expect a Manly Man (Saturday Night Live sketches) Bronco... and not a Girly Man interior.

Like to see the demographics of the Bronco focus groups

a little love for us non-FE folks would be appreciated. many of us live in sunny hot places and would love a lighter color interior other than ONYX (and the white hard top would also really help keep temperature under control)

When your best interior is the cloth and/or vinyl interior on a 15 year project...

This is the bottom of the 8th inning, and I don't see any interior changes happening for 2021 models.

I guess what's really sad, is the CEO of Bronco is acting suprised, and no one on his 15 year Bronco project informed him the interiors were sub-optimal.

This is who ok'd the interiors.

I'm afraid that you're right! The colors and materials for these interiors have probably been purchased already... for many months. The contracted vendors have likely already contracted suppliers to dye and finish the surfaces of the materials, and it's likely that many of the interiors have already been cut (at the very least) and possibly sewn, to await final installation on the seats and accessories panels!

Whaddya mean. Why aren't ya'll happy with a color and materials video where they show off mismatched color swatches?

yep! I'd go white top, light vinyl all day to keep temps cooler. Seems obvious and it's sad they didn't put more time and effort into making this happen. They still have time to change the interior so let's see.

I thought the same thing…it looks like she is barely out of high school.

The roll-out video for interiors is on bronco6g and on YouTube. The Design Manager is the presenter.

The New copy paste answer

 

[broncoj11]

do y’all really think they’ll add a new interior? when we asked for green they gave us a damn concept vehicle that we can’t purchase. so I wouldn’t get my hopes up.

 

[Shifty]

I just want this color option...

 

[Ripcurl]

It'd be nice, but doubt anything for MY21 at least.....

He probably blocked all those dudes on Twitter right after (if that's a thing you can do). I suspect they don't use random twitter complaints for major design changes after doing their own focus groups, etc for months/years.

I'm not sure about amazing. It's quite shocking actually.

The better question is why didn't Ford solicit feedback prior to releasing some of these god awful and limited options.

Because, they have only been working on this vehicle for a year in actuality. All of this screams of night-before-the-science-fair project planning. There is absolutely no way they have been working on this for 4-5 years. No. Way.

I added on to the tweet thread to support other FE reservation holders. I don’t want that navy pier either.

Yes they could do this for sure. think about how many FORD vehicles are produced right now across all models/trims and how many have a standard black option. The # of bronco seats made vs. the rest of Fords line up is tiny. They could find the bandwidth somehow. They could do it, It might a serious pain in the ASS to do it, but will they is the real question. How much do they care about their customers.
