We aren't asking for anything new or unique anymore. We merely want the options the lower trims have. So this would not add any production time. They'd just be making more of the seats/interiors of the other trims. ffs.
Yes, exactly, just like how FE has several exterior color options we would like to have more options for the interior colors too... is that too much to ask??

I have a FE reserved an I'll probably order a bad lands or wildtrak instead. Limited, yet not exclusive exterior colors, and a hideous interior color are making the choice easy. They should follow the 4runner TRD Pro model and have a couple excusive colors every year. Demand would be insane and depreciation nonexistent. I would kill for that Code Orange!

Also, want to note that we are not cry-babies. We're going to change our reservation if change isn't to be had. All in the petition.

That said, maxed-out Badlands for me if things don't get better.

If they would have just put a black or brown interior in it nobody would've said anything. But they chose that awful blue. I'm the biggest blue fan out there. I've had several blue cars and may order a Bronco in Velocity blue, but that interior is really ugly. I'm not buying that.

I hate brown and I would've settled for brown with orange exterior. I keep playing this game of compromises. I know what I want, but I'm being super flexible with, "If I had this interior, I'd settle for this exterior. If I had this exterior, I'd settle for this interior."

But $60k+ to get nothing I like? Meh. Then the FE isn't for me.

I appreciate the initiative and wish you all the best on this attempt. I honestly did not agree with the position in the argument and feel that the only vote you can make with a corporation is with the wallet. I have the same feelings about this topic that Allen Iverson has about practice.

Truth be told, I'd pay out the nose for a different interior and keep my FE. If they wanted to upcharge me $5k, but I get a sweet interior, I'd pay it. But at this point, I know nothing "new" can happen due to production delays. So I'm content with something basic from the lower trims over Navy Pier. Just gimme black and call it a day. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I really empathize with you on this. When you enjoy a lot of buying power, stuff you acquire tends to fall into one of 2 categories: (a) special objet de désir, and (b) everything else.

I'm looking forward to driving a BD, but Ford was too rigid to fit into that first category.

I don't have an FE reservation so this does not affect me personally... but for those of you that do, I think it is ridiculous that Navy Blue is the only choice. I've seen some pics with dark grey/black seats and dark brown headrests which would pretty much look good with any exterior color. It's a bit odd that something more appealing like that is not what is being offered, but instead the blue interior that is not only unattractive in most applications, but would look silly with most of the exterior color choices.

Hopefully Ford is listening to it's customers and it will be interesting to see what they do with this.

I'm really excited because I never buy myself things. I'm a hoarder of money as a formerly poor person. Be nice to just have options that aren't aftermarket/gutting my brand new vehicle.

Politely asking for more support if the forum is willing. Gotta get way more signatures if we stand a chance.

Yep. The news of Lightning Blue doesn't make me feel better either. Cool, it matches now, but that interior is still dog vomit.
