Whatever you want to call it, Ford is aware of an inherently defective part and continues to use that part. Ford put the defective Texas Instruments cruise control switch into cars/trucks/vans for YEARS despite the design itself being a fire hazard.
The initial switch recall started with early...
That's exactly what Ford did for the cruise control switch recall years ago, and that was absolutely more hazardous than a delaminating hard top.

Ford's response was to recall the affected vehicles in...
At this point they need to get rid of the Webasto MIC top entirely.

I noticed the big gap there too.
Wouldn't be surprised if we got entirely new grilles in '27, all of them based on the modular grille design with interchangable inserts.
I'm curious to see how the Sasquatch flares, mud flaps, and the non-powered side steps from the 2025+ models (with the flared up edge on the ends of the step) all line up. The mud flap design follows the curves of the vehicle better than the aftermarket options out there.
Interesting that the badge looks like it might be an actual badge instead of a sticker.
I know some people are interested in retractable side steps but I like having the basic non-powered ones to block rocks. My tires seem to bring a lot of my gravel driveway with them and I'm always hearing...
Seriously, we're half a decade into the current Bronco and Ford has finally gotten around to basic molded plastic parts like Sasquatch mud flaps and modular grille inserts.
My 2024 Badlands has the stitched dash with yellow/gold thread, MGV seats with yellow/gold stitching, and other yellow/gold accents.
The 60th Anniversary edition looks great.
