New Soft Top Option For Bronco 2-Door Showing in B&P?

[Bronc-O]

Is anyone going to ask why they've got the term backflip listed there?

To me, that suggests it does something the regular cloth top doesn't do. Sounds like more than just premium materials.

What’s the advantage of canvass top over the soft top?

Heavier material presumably longer lasting and quieter than the cheaper standard cloth.

i think there a thread on this already but yeah something new

Thanks, I found it and requested a merge of threads.

It looks like Ford added a few new items in the tops section of the B&P. There’s now a canvas top? Is this better than a cloth top?

Stop with the bitchin already...if this is a soft top option for 2drs and it allows delivery of our builds sooner with a hard top later on than that is an option many of us 2dr order holders have been wanting all along. Please let this be.

The canvas soft top seems to be an upgrade from the cloth soft top. Below is a screen shot of an outer banks build

I wonder what is the difference between Top - Backflip, Soft Canvas and Top - Soft Cloth, Black Cloth? Which is Standard.

Has Ford announced anything about this yet? Or are we still speculating if this means 2drs can get their builds this year with a soft top?

No it's not. The "backflip" is just the Sunrider from BesTop. It is an accessory and doesn't replace the MIC top. When installed, it replaces the two front panels of the MIC. And it opens just as the name that the rockstars implies - backflip.

For the BesTop Fastback, it also opens in the Sunrider fashion (doesn't collapse all the way to the back like the factory Moar Door ST). Or it can be configured safari style with the rear windows removed. It obviously replaces the entire MIC when installed.

But in either case, none of the options replaces the factory MIC top.

This makes total sense and I really should have put that together immediately. I did notice it was at the top of B&P instead of with the fast back BesTop under accessories and I couldn't figure out why.

I'm pretty sure it's a misprint. I think they mean normal soft top including the mesh bimini top.

Typical for Ford at this point communication seems to be a problem. You have to guess what they mean.

Why would ford make any changes to b and p for 2021 at this point ???? they keep adding confusion to already confused and frusterated situation my lord ford what are you doing who is running this company right now

are in charge.

They show up in WBDO as DIO accessories. They are also listed in the order guide.

This could be huge for us 2 door folk

Edit: NVM, got excited and thought this would be a 2d factory soft top. As you were

Yeah, you can have this for 2k after we paw through the pile of crap hard tops to find you one that won't piss you off too much. 7/21 schedule waiting for Sept.21 delivery? It's built, I just don't have a YouTube channel. That's a lesson. Even a crappy YouTube channel seems to be enough to get delivery.

Just saw this when I went on build and price. Doesn’t seem to replace the hard top though.

Does not let you deselect the hard top. Some kind of duel top option ?

The whole time I’m wondering when I can get a Ford factory style soft top for my 4D FE. I had my dealer order the vinyl Bestop one, thinking that at worst I might only have to use it for a year or two.

I really don’t like the fastback design nor the lack of ability to fold it all the way down, but it’s better than having the MIC on it when I intend to drive topless as much as possible, 8-9 months out of of the year.

Mine was built on 8/11 and is on Dirt Mountain.

Here's my prediction: Once the MY22 B&P goes live, they'll offer the soft top as an alternative to the hard top for 2-door Broncos. They'll make a big deal out of it like "We listened...blah, blah, blah" and COMPLETELY ignore the fact that in the meantime, they already bumped all their 2-door customers who don't have a VIN to 2022, AND they screwed us out of AMB and RR.

So we're still not getting a MY21, even if we have a Day 1 timestamp, and we're still not getting the color we ordered. And the ONLY reason we want the 2-door soft top option in the first place is so we can get our Bronco this year, and get the color we wanted.

If they pull that, they must think their customers are a bunch of idiots. I sure hope they don't, because that would just be cruel.

If you have a 2 door ordered and don't have i vin # yet you aren't getting a my21 unless you are an FE.

Um, yeah. I know that. Ford sent me the email a long time ago. What makes you think that I wasn't aware of that fact?
