50K for a truck with vinyl seats? We owned cars in the 60-70's with vinyl seats they were cheap and sticky/sweaty? To each his own I guess but I wouldn't own that mess

The problem is we will never know how much better the reservation/order numbers could have been had the marketing been 100% as good as
the engineering
And in all fairness, I'm glad you engineering is 100%. If anything has to suffer I'm glad it's the marketing.

To be fair, the only info we have is marketing propaganda from Ford. The engineering hasn't really be reviewed in any independent way. We don't even have any road reviews.

You are literally rewriting history to fit your desired narrative. Your point is rooted in nothing but opinion. It runs contrary to the actual facts and actual order data. I think the.marketinh department stands on pretty firm ground, at least until 2024ish. Lol
I have no “desired narrative”. In fact, I have no narrative at all. I have only rational observation. Which is that the marketing campaign for the new Bronco has been mostly trash. Everyone on this forum knows it. So no, the fact these vehicles are sold out for at least a year isn’t due to a marketing department “that knows what it’s doing.” It’s despite that marketing department ***not*** knowing what they’re doing.

Great video of MGV. I ordered a Black Diamond that has the two tone interior ,looks like the quality of materials is high end. I do like the Badlands solid color look with accent stitching also. No matter what you choose i think they all will look awesome. Can't wait to see a real bronco in person.

I saw Black Diamond’s interior in person yesterday and I loved it!

Well, if the forum says so, then they surely must know more than the people who actually launched the successful program. Lol.

C'mon man.

I like the fact that the interior is not as jet black as it appeared on the Build and Price renderings. The seats look to be more a graphite than a black. This is highlighted when you see the black seat belt webbing against the seat.

I’ve had three Fords in a row with all black interiors, including my current F150, and I find them too basic. This interior I’m pretty excited about.

For those of us who didn’t see the value in going to Badlands and instead went Manual transmission Black Diamond, how difficult is it going to be to install heated seats? I wanted Heated seats, but I wanted the washout interior and manual transmission, and adding $8000 to get heated seats (and some other upgrades) wasn’t going to increase the value to me, so I am going to have to figure out how to add heated seats.
To the shoemaker’s husband: thanks for that insight. Truly, it’s a great world now for alternatives to leather. I wish my custom motorcycle seat was covered in a synthetic rather than leather, which at 10 years old required me to strip the finish and repaint it to restore its new look. On the plus side, leather is very easy to strip, repaint (yes leather gets painted) and reseal. I’ve done my saddle, motorcycle boots, and cycling shoes. The plus of leather is it’s ease of repair and maintenance, which are all known factors.
I just want to know where I can get the whale skin hubcaps that Dennis Leary sang about. 😂

I enjoyed the video for what it is. Don’t care about the source.

All the hate on BN and OBL is annoying in that it often hijacks these threads. Hate ‘em if you want but exercise a little self control so those of us that just want to take in information don’t have to sift through pages and pages of posts that have little to do with the original content posted.

NOTE: One of the reasons the forum gets duplicate threads is the fact that trolling, sniping, and other silliness make threads so cluttered and long that they become too annoying to use for research.
