@irv0735 thanks for the post. Lots of new, good info to digest and hold us over for a few days!

Are those yellow/orange accents going to be standard on a BL? I really hope not

Yes

Lol not my video but apparently it’s the only way to video live on Facebook

I didn't know it was the only way for FB, I don't do the FB. I know in my work (stunts) we use our phones a lot to film a rehearsal to show the director to see if we are on the right path. Vertical filming is never appreciated...

Thanks again for sharing the video...

From what I gathered from previous info the cargo tray is optional. The rubberized rear seat backs are standard on some models. This isn't 100% confirmed so we will see.

It seems odd that the fasteners on the seat back are not evenly spaced and the edge is starting to curl.

I always considered that a flaw in the Smart Phone. If it was so "smart", it would default all video being captured horizontally regardless of how the phone is held. The horizontal capture could only be overridden by the user at the start of a recording.

good point, not sure why it works the way it does....

I must be easily impressed when it comes to interiors. Looks good to me ??‍

Here's a customer for Navy Pier.

I know I was probably dreaming but I was hoping for at least one upscale interior package option like on the f150 platinum.

Yes the Lux

Unfortunately, they do not.

Oh boy. Guess I'm just going to have to play it off as I wasn't aware and hope for the best. The 4dr badlands bronco in cactus gray will be hers by the way, and its hard for her to conceptualize a 4dr badlands when only a 2door is present and a color that looks 6 different shades if looking at 6 different pictures, so I hope she doesn't yank the bronco hope from me and want another GC trailhawk or hold out for the new 4runner because I need to keep my full-size truck and can't downsize myself to the bronco.

 

[Bronc-O]

I certainly hope not. But then again, it is looking like a soup sandwich on a show/display rig. That lack of attention to detail doesn't fly with us veterans.

It will likely have gone to the crusher by this time next year, so they probably didn't feel the need to be too picky.

 

[BroncoKong Jr.]

Yes the Lux

Lux is all electronics, though, right?

 

[2Jeeps&PatriotX1]

Yes the Lux

I will say my f150 loaded lariat interior is plush and nice and the wife's GC has leather w/ suede inserts, so I'm hoping the leather is somewhat close to my f150 because I know she likes it.

With the clarification on the interior material and design being pretty much production, I have a question. I'm not sure if you are familiar with the "soft" plastics that were used in the Wrangler JK and are used in certain parts of other Mopar products, but they were extremely easily scratched and gouged. What is your opinion of the plastic panels and their durability in the Bronco, if you are able to get some fingers and eyes on it? I appreciate your objective opinion. Thanks for looking out for us!

Yeah both

I hope so! Ford better clean some of these issues up. I'm not spending $50,000 + on a half ass looking vehicle.

The funny thing is I’d take that 2 door as is (well new, a different color, and put the disconnecting sway bar back on). It is a utilitarian vehicle.

That said, all y’all Outer Banks, Wildtrak and Lux buyer’s May want to hold your horses because this production-like interior is the Badlands.

well I'd burn anything blue w/ orange even if I saw it out here in CO lol. I used to live in FL for 15yrs and can't stand UF fans/alumni etc.

I think that mentality would suffice for the Franken-rigs being thrown against the trails. But I would expect much better quality for show/display rigs regardless if it was destined for the crusher. They keep emphasizing the fine details such as Bronco on screws, lasso(s) on attachment points in the cargo, embossed horse kicking on the bumper, etc. Yet, they are okay making the front seats out of a used mattress from the Salvation Army.
