It's truly amazing to me what some people think should be standard in vehicles...Then people complain about base models costing too much.
Not saying standard but Ford provides the option for $135 for universal garage door opener in their trucks. So why not in the bronco?

Do you live in a climate that has heavy snow and serious hail every summer?
Nope. Just outside of Portland, OR. So rain 8 months of the year and gorgeous the other 4. Just a habit my wife and I have for whatever reason.

I donā€™t park in the garage, but I use the opener in my ā€˜04 Titan 3-4 times per week when I transfer my MTB from the garage to the truck and again to put it away when I get home. Anything that gets that much use Iā€™d like to be standard, especially in a vehicle 16+ years newer. Guess Iā€™ll have to go WiFi.

I'm so technology challenged I've never used the built in openers in my last two F-250's.

I've never used the voice text or commands crap either. They don't translate a southern drawl very well. I'm more an old school/analog guy.

There was an article done last year... It's called reductive Design. It will shed some light on the subject.

Ford CEO Jim Hackett Says Car Prices Can't Keep Rising Forever
Ford CEO Jim Hackett says that new car prices can't just keep increasing and that he hopes that will stop soon, he didn't elaborate on when.

I must be getting old...an automatic garage door opener, my god man...its a fucking Bronco, not a BMW.
Well, we're paying near BMW prices for it....so adding a $15 cost accessory that you use every day and is much better built in would seem to make sense.

3, and a gate
That's cool.

Many houses in my town date back nearly 400 years ago.... the rest are late 19th to mid 20th....

You have three options when purchasing a house: No garage, a shed, or a 2,000sqft dirt floor barn.
