Leaked! 2021 Bronco Display Screen / Center Stack, 7 Speed Manual Transmission Crawler Gear, Off-Road Package

[Bronc-O]

this gauge cluster looks cheap as well.

I'm not interested in the Bronco Sport, but do like the color accents. This is for those that want a low $30's Bronco.

I like how flush and integrated into the dash the screen is looking... and so glad it's not a floating screen like in the Bronco Sport.

Itd be great if that screen folded away. It almost looks like it could. I know alot of you all have driven alot of new cars with those, I havent. Only rode in a few early on but it was real low. But i find them very distracting. Almost to an unsafe level.

I think the disappearing screens are long gone. Too troublesome if you manage to get something stuck down underneath it

So, are we taking a big risk on this new manual transmission? The 6 spd Getrag in the Mustang doesn't seem to be faring well.

Same here, 2 years and 21k miles so far. Clutch feels a lot better with Steeda clutch spring.

Yessir! 10 years 120k miles on mine.

Not saying no one has had issues but I doubt it’s a problem on the level of the Focus auto trans.

I know one thing is for sure this transmission shifts like butter at high revs

Will 'SCREENS' be the weakest link in Bronco?

Complaints that Tesla’s giant touch screens can fail have drawn the attention of U.S. safety regulators...The probe covers 63,000 Model S vehicles with screens controlled by flash memory devices with finite lifespans based on the number of program and erase cycles, the documents said. The screens can fail prematurely because the memory can wear out.

Very possible the "screens" will be the most likely to fail. Touch displays in cars is still relatively new and quickly evolving technology. Plus the Bronco will be getting the new larger screen. Hard to know how it will hold up compared to the 8"

Only parts I have changed on my wife's '17 F150 was the 8" screen assembly at 40k miles. Screen become unresponsive and GPS stopped working.

On my '19 Mustang I had to get the digital cluster replaced at 2k miles because it would not always turn on with the car.

Luckily Carplay/Android auto pretty much future-proofs a lot of screens by essentially turning them to a TV and offloading the processing to your smart phone.

I’m not too worried. Nothing can be worse than the original sync touchscreen in my parent’s explorer, thing is a piece of shit and barely worked when new.

The factory touchscreen in my 2013 Tundra would like a word.

I'm aboot to "touch" it with a hammer.

I'd prefer to have no screen at all and save the $$$$.

Evolution is not Always a good thing. Today, we're not happy unless we have a single device that can make a call, take a picture, and tell Alexa to flush the john. Despite all the technology advances, nothing works quite as well as a simple on/off switch.

This is why we need all the driving assistant features: lanes control, emergency stop, etc. People more and more are driving around staring at their screens.

When a key selling point of a car becomes the screen, that tells you something.
