What's up with the gauges ?

[4runner]

Hey Guys and Gals what's up with the myriad of the gauges and informational displays on the Bronco, can we all agree that its pretty much a train wreck, OK here's the good and the bad ...

The dash is nice it feels good its got nice plastics some color combos are really disgusting but lets put that aside because that's just preference to some ...

Overall interior styling is nice but the gauges need work ...

I do like the simplicity of the dash with the numbers of buttons etc not being overwhelming, but I dislike for example the double take they do on things for example, there is absolutely no need to have an airflow button then select it on the touch screen, all you have to do is have it toggle through the modes. Whats up with two speedos ? You don't need that, all those funny fuel economy stuff I mean come on ... you don't need to know that, you bought a gas car with bad gas mileage not much is going to help you ... let it go ... eco mode really ? I'm all for less pollution, but its a gas car. Did I say it was a gas car ?

The entire system up front with the gauges needs to be reworked, its hard to find info you need. IMO

Digital displays in general have jumped the shark.

The instrument cluster is a total shit show, so many especially the manual folks have been begging Ford to send an OTA with a new one where the bars are replaced with dials.
Honestly in the future if someone figures out how to hack it and customize the cluster, I'd do it.

I wish there was more customization available. I don't need an analog AND digital speedometer at the same time.

Digital displays for instrumentation are fine, they just need to actually be DESIGNED by someone who understands how to design and implement good UI/UX

Other than the speedo needing to be a tach, I politely disagree and kinda like it.

I guess I’m in the minority - I like the gauge cluster and screen option.

The car that takes the cake for the worst looking gauges and dash of all time though is not the Bronco but a car called the Cadillac Allante

Watch deboss garage bronco dash, he uses the Holley sniper system and customizes the gauges very nicely! Wicked setup.

Whatever, I mostly look out the windshield when I’m driving.

I sat in a bronco last year at my dealership i asked to turn it on so I could see the dash instruments when I did a little came up !, I said is there other options ? just terrible but I have faith future gen broncos will be near perfect in a few years .
I don't think it will ever be as simple or elegant as I'm used to.

I want a VDO rpm gauge. Otherwise known as a tachometer.

The dash is not very intuitive.
