Why no physical owners manual?

Mine came with the manuals in the glove compartment, so that's not true. If it were an option to do away with them, I'm sure some dealers would, but I feel like that's more of a factory option. Like I said though I received physical copies, which I prefer. I love my Bronco, but I'm not sitting in the car to look through the manual on screen. Yes, it's 2022, but its called a preference.

There was a series of booklets I received, but they aren't what I'd consider a true bumper to bumper owners manual.

Because it's no longer 1922,.... It's 2022.
Don't tell me you'd rather use an encyclopedia over google??
This. My last vehicle with a complete owner's manual was a 2017 Toyota Highlander. It didn't even fit in the glove box and wound up under the rear floor. First, The manuals for today's vehicles contain a lot of information. Second, an interactive searchable version is superior in every respect. I don't need 1000 pages taking up precious cargo space. Besides on a highly modified vehicle, how much will be relevant by the third year for many folks.

I just received my owners manual last Tuesday and it was for the 2022 model.
Was it a FULL manual or a partial? I just re-clicked the link and only see FULL manuals for 2021, not 2022.
