Any shorter people on here 5' to 5'4" sat in the Bronco. How did it feel? Did you have to move the seat up super close?
Hi!! I’m a whopping 4’11”. I’m getting a Non-Sas Badlands 2 door. It was a little jump for me to get in but nothing I’m above doing!!! Had to move the seat up and the steering wheel adjusted beautifully. I don’t sit on top of a steering wheel due to injury potential. But I have to say it was extremely comfortable and the visibility over the dash was great!!!! 😎

Going to a Bronco event Sunday, my wife is 5'2" so I'll have her move the seats around and report back
@Big Boss she will be fine!!!! This thing is fantastic and I only had a small amount of difficulty and I’m 4’11”!!!! 😎😎 more power to us vertically challenged Individuals!!!

I'm short, a hair over 5'4", and sat in a 4Dr Big Bend. When I got in the seat was low, but cranked up the manual height lever in the left until it was comfortable. Pretty much the same as my Focus ST. The seat had additional room to move up and forward, so should be fine for 5 feet.

The more notable thing for me is how high and wide the front end is. It seems to block more view than the Wranglers I've owned. In comparison, I don't really see the front of my Focus at all since it slopes downward. The Bronco is big and it shows.

Great to hear my wife is 5' and I didn't want her right on top of the wheel for safety reasons. Or having to stretch for the pedals.

Yesterday I did a whole seat/ steering wheel adjustment thing. Believe it or not it was more comfortable than my new 2020 Escape. I was pleasantly surprised and impressed. She will love it - hopefully!!!

My wife is also 5' 2" and she had a hard time hopping on, especially the sasquatch. I added the sasquatch on my BL. Don't say anything.
