Some differences in controls

[HorizonHunter]

That top picture makes me nervous. That looks like crap. So cheap. Yet, that's going to be in vehicles pushing $50k.

Here is a Rubicon dash for comparison. While I'm not a fan of the red, but this looks so much more refined and expensive. Looks like it could be in a luxury vehicle.

Italians can do some things right when it comes to cars.

FIFY. Jeeps are not cars.

Is there a tach available on any of the instrument displays?

 

[Markubis]

Ugh, that bezel surround on the 8” display looks so cheap and cheesy! ?

No problem. Just cover it in black fur material!!

Man and here I am just wishing I could get the mid package on it (they're not offering mid with manual transmission on BD for a reason only God and the rockstars at Ford knows)

We know, too. Remote start in gear. Think about that.

Remote start is not available with manual for obvious reasons. But it's not the only feature of the mid package.

The mid package IS available with the manual transmission on Badlands, but not Black Diamond... for reasons only God and the rockstars at Ford know.

OK, only God and some Ford engineer know then. Lol. Surely they disable remote start if in gear? But if so, why not on other trims? And why no signature lights on BD? Mysteries.

This is the Instrument Panel. Standard on all trims. The High Level version could include much more information, we've seen examples of distinct off roading features and additional animation for GOAT modes, but nothing is confirmed.

Anyone else notice the fuel level is just over 3/4 of a tank and the "194mi to E"?

Did anyone else notice the fuel gauge just above 3/4 of a tank and the "194mi to E"? Sounds like only a 250 mile range on a tank...hopefully it'll be further than that, but I'm all in regardless...LOL

Yes, it's a digital bar ?

Probably put fuel in and didn't reset the trips . Ya'll freak out about anything ,LOL

I agree that many mole hills have been made in to mountains on here, but resetting the trip has nothing to do with a vehicle estimating miles to empty.
More likely is that truck has done a whole lot of idling and off road slow driving in high rpms. That will throw off the computers miles to empty estimate real quick.

I agree. HIgh Package on a BD would be perfect for a lot of people... MGV plus High... Not everyone wants the extreme rock crawling the BL has to offer... BD is a perfect in the middle rig.

Ford should let you get mid package on base and high package on BB and BD. Are you listening Ford?

You're correct , I was thinking of mpg . My King Ranch miles to empty varies wildly according to whether or not I have been towing or sitting in traffic a lot . That particular Bronco could have been doing a lot of rigorous testing crawling or similar . I think it calculates on current mpg , level in tank , average mpg and driving habits .

Must be the 2 door, it's only a 16 gallon tank. 250 miles /12 gallon= 20 MPG
