[Mustbeheresomewhere]

Deleting the useless wireless charging pad ... nice.

I wish that they would have FIXED it rather than deleting it.

I think most of it is coming from page 1, post 1?

Lord, I'm an idiot. Thanks!

Gosh they’re really only allowing the packages on the Big Bend . I have an OBX and was thinking of trading is for a Black Diamond, but you don’t get a 360 camera. They should allow the Black Diamond package on the OBX

We had the High pack on our 23 BL 2 Door and honestly the 360 camera was really just not very helpful, as they are just at too vertical an angle on the Bronco, and you never really saw much in them until you were on top of an obstacle, so not very helpful in wheel placement like they could have been. Plus you're not permitted to use the mirror camera view unless you're in 4WD which is a shame, because it's excellent for tight parking situations on other vehicles as well. I wouldn't let the 360 camera drive your purchase.

I know it's been said, but WTH ford, only 2 door options will be Base and Badlands !?! (Strope being Badlands+) Heritage only 4door??? FFS What are they thinking...

And with that painted two-door top only available on the Badlands/Strope I'm really not holding out a lot of hope that Nugget will ever see one

Losing the 2 door HE is a huge miss, its the heritage model, which prior to the 6g, all Broncos were 2 doors - if anything they should have ditched the 4 door HE

All we can say at this point is as of ‘24 Job2 the Heritage Mod Top does not have removable windows… we’ll have to wait for ‘25 deliveries to learn otherwise…

Yeah Ford pretty much removed that option from job 2 without announcing it so people who took delivery of their job 2 HE were surprised their windows were not removable. You can read more about it in the thread I attached below. To be fair, it is a nice feature but I only removed them once

I originally ordered my Wildtrak with the MOD top - I still feel like I'd use it whenever I'd remove the front and middle panels (but keep the back on), as otherwise the rear top acts like a big parachute.

All of this really adds up to a massive disappointment for me, as we no longer have our 2 door BL and I have been searching for a Job 1 2 door HE to replace it with, specifically to get the added functionality of actually opening up the rear of the vehicle, which we'd always intended to do with our original intent to get the MOD top from the very beginning. The gunners hatch and the removal rear glass on the 2 door HE MOD top were spectacular, and I thought really key to making the 2 door work for a family of 3 - particularly without any rear air vents at all.

Also in the "I've had no issue with my 2.3L brakes" camp. I actually prefer vacuum brakes and anytime I drive a vehicle with electronic brakes I nearly send myself through the windshield the first time I hit the brakes.

Likewise, the vacuum brake setup on our 2.3 was never a problem for us.

I know how to work mushy brakes- I owned a 74 FJ40 Landcruiser for 15 years! I’ve never owned a modern vehicle with brakes as spongy as those on the 2.3 though. Those who only drive the 2.3 probably don’t realize the difference in feel. After driving my 2.7 then hopping in the 2.3 right after- easily felt.

So no word in pricing?

Ford SHOULD cut prices but I suspect $500 to $1000 bumps across the board. I noticed Ford throughout 24 adjusted option pricing here and there.

The return of the Base will provide the price "cut". Leastways it will allow Ford to offer a lower priced version, without having to cut prices on other versions, which car makers rarely do and wouldn't have looked good.

I always figured Ford would consider bringing the base back if they needed a lower price entry, rather than reduce prices on other versions. It's a way to reduce price without officially reducing price.

Trail One-Pedal Driving basically eliminates the need for braking as the system defaults to a "stop". You are then just accelerating through the stop. Let off the throttle and the Bronco stops without any need to press the brakes. Obviously, it is controlled electronically and previously was only available on the 2.7L because of the EBB.

See that what I thought.

So I would have thought that now the 2.3L also has EBB, it would also get trail one-pedal drive. But alas.... it does not.

 

[Broncc]

I noticed that the 4.27 rear locker option is absent. OB and BB used to have it, but BB now overlaps with the BD pack and the OB can only get a rear locker from Sas.

I think I lucked out impulse ordering a last chance 24.

What I also find interesting here is the missing "Sinister Bronze package" which was spotted earlier in Texas I believe.

Yeah I’m not really sure why it doesn’t have it now. Possible it’s a mistake and it will?

 

[Blackcat]

Glad Ford realized they needed an entry level, aka, Base model. My 22 Base is all I could want/use. I am intrigued that the 4 DR Base will be available with the M/T.

Pretty sure the consensus on that was that it was a dealer package and not something from the factory.

 

[Rydfree]

I am aware you could make them flatter by doing that, but it never really provided a flat load floor in the cargo compartment. Meaning they don't fold down into the floor, like they did in say like the Ford Expedition's.

There were some threads around here of guys making platforms and there are some pricy kits to delete the back seats and make a flat cargo floor.

The rear seats do fold "Flat". They do not fold "Level" with the rest of the cargo area. People use different terminology which causes the confusion .

Maybe Ford should tell dealers to stop optioning out the most expensive versions that are collecting dust on lots? Seriously one dealer here has 69 Broncos in inventory and only 7 x Big Bend and 11 x Black Diamond. The rest are mostly are Wildtrack and Badlands with Sasquatch package. Not everyone can or wants to pay $75k+ for a Bronco.

 

[Eliminator]

No more stand alone option for the aux switches? They seem to be available only on the Black Diamond package with Big Bend, the Badlands, and Heritage Edition.

 

[EasternSierra]

Finally got rid of the most useless trim from the very beginning, Wildtrak. Why they ever had it is beyond me, those options should have been on the Badlands from the start. a

It was always a weird concept. Take a very competent high-speed desert runner that's meant to get dirty, but make cloth seats, carpet, and luxury features standard. That just doesn't make sense. There should have been a bare-bones Wildtrack with washout floors and MGV seats for serious offroad use, and then if you wanted to pimp it out as a pavement princess you could option what you wanted.
