Having sat in both the MGV and power seats as a 6'4" human, I felt that the power seats had a lot more height adjustment in them. Never really got comfortable sitting in the manual seats.

Zack, I believe you are the most valuable member of this forum. Thanks for being an encyclopedia of Bronco knowledge.
Check me on this - but if one orders BL with MGV doesn't that automatically delete the power seats EVEN in the LUX package?

Is that because it takes about that long to get the seat from the lowest to highest position?
This is why I hate manual seats. My wife and I are going to have to figure out a seat height we can both settle on because playing the adjust-the-barber-chair game every time is not gonna happen. I wonder what model year will let two-door models have power seats.

Big & Tall here - yep, I did both of those before I had to bail out on the Bronco. But at least I stayed inside Ford - I have signed the papers for an Explorer Platinum, taking delivery in 2-3 months.
And then in the ironic department, the Explorer Timberline was announced today, two days after I signed up for the Platinum. That's an off-road variant of the Explorer that had been rumored but not yet confirmed. I even asked several Ford and Lincoln dealers over the past week for any information about it and everybody said they didn't know a thing. I don't know if that's true but oh well, life's funny like that sometime.
For any family men who have to give up on the Bronco, I strongly recommend that you check out an Explorer. If you need the off-road then the Timberline is coming this summer. Yes, it's not as capable as a Bronco, but it will fit all the kids and crap that comes with them. Other models are available now.

I feel like this is correct as well. I was able to sit in a leather optioned demo during the roadshow and felt like it went very low and I was very happy with where I was sitting. At that time no one could tell me the difference between powered and manual. Took delivery of my manual adjust BD this weekend and it feels like I am sitting up higher than the demo. I can still drive it, but I am used to sitting lower in the car and it just feels very odd. My eyes are just below the roll bar, but on the plus side my head does not go above the roll bar like it does in a jeep. If I would have been able to see a manual and power before my VIN was schedule, I probably would have upgraded to a trim that could have leather. Will have to investigate options to potentially lower the seat a little more.
