Lane keep assist, analog speedo, GOAT modes, tach, and probably other things I forgot are on there.

Sirius radio

I really wish Ford would let us customize in the settings which audio sources we want displayed. I would just remove Sirius entirely. I would have been willing to subscribe, but I have no interest in paying to listen to '90s-quality MP3 audio. The music should sound better than FM radio (not to mention HD radio!), not worse.

I thought I would take the top off and leave it off for most of the year…haven’t taken it off…I don’t daily drive it around town (where I want no top)…my Model A is much more fun around town…most of my trips take me into the Hot/cold/foggy valley (where I want a top)…no place to put the top if I took it off once I get to the mountains (where I don’t want a top)…then the trails are too hot and dusty to not have the top on in my old age…what I really need is a powered soft top that folds all the way down on my 2 door…yes, I am seriously turning into a wimp…

So far the most useless thing my Bronco came with was the satellite radio that expired after 3 months. I used it one time. In 6200 miles, I haven't used the cruise control either, but that has some value.

You didn't feel the nostalgia of hearing songs just like how they were shared on Napster?

I struggled with this too and used this post as inspiration. The Yeti Sidekick is a great addition to the Molle panels for stashing small gear. You can then 'sling' it on if you're walking about like to watch your kid's soccer game in my case. Snacks, water, phone, wallet, keys, and other things are then close at hand.

When I have offroaded, the goat modes can be really useful when you're in the right terrain, but I've found the sway bar disconnect to be the least used item.

I really like the Yeti cup holders.. Might have to scoop me up a pair. My kids water bottles never fit in the arm-rest cupholder so that would be a perfect solution. Do they attach pretty easily?

I’ve wondered if there’s a FORScan option to disable it. I’ve never looked into it, just wondered.

It's not documented, but I would imagine that it would be possible if one could figure out where. But Ford should make almost everything that currently requires ForScan to be a feature in Settings.

I have to say the 18oz yeti water bottle holder i have didn’t fit at all. The larger ones might and this image looks to be those.

Yeah my kids have several different sizes, So I would probably size up and do the large. Loving the idea though.

sounds like you need a mytop

Not available for the 2-door.

And honestly when I had a Mustang Drop Top, I only ever put the top down about 2-4 weeks every year. And the 'Stang is a much better convertible.

Thank you for reminding me that THIS is my least used feature, not those I listed in an earlier post. My top is never, ever coming down. Not even the panels. There are few things that I am more sure about. 11 years of JK ownership have taught me that there are mostly downsides in removable tops that are not offset by the very few upsides. Particularly with that egg carton contraption that Ford calls a "hard" top.

Life is about smiles per gallon. My top is almost always down unless it’s raining or snowing

 

[BROCK-O]

Analog speedometer was the dumbest feature put on the Bronco, by far.

Can we see this setup?

Nothing super fancy

Hmm

Cruise Control probably - just regular old cruise control. I’m very rarely in a situation where I can use it without needing a lot of supervision. Very early morning / late night highway is about it - which isn’t very often I do that.

Although cruise control does let you shift without canceling and uses rev matching with or without ProCal on the 7MT - that is pretty neat.

Apart from that - I really only twist the Goat modes to show new folks the pretty pictures on the cluster. I used downhill mode once - which was nice but not nearly as nice as 4L Crawl.

I don’t have a hard top that can use the rear wiper or defrost.

I’ve not had to manually disengage traction control yet. Usually if I’m in a situation like that I’m already in 4L and it takes care of it for me.

I don’t have a lot any of the lux/mid package stuff so … not a lot for me to not use I guess.

Wait. the 7mt will rev match when changing gears in cruise control? Without the pro cal? Time for a road test.
