i was wondering if i was the only one that would definitely buy a fixed roof bronco if it would be available from Ford?

Never been a fan of convertibles but i also understand that a lot of people probably bought the Bronco for that specific reason, thats just not my case, i bought it mainly for its capabilities.

I also think that the Bronco SHOULD have the removeable top by default, but a fixed roof option would be nice

I voted no, but...if Ford built this (early 6g rendering before leaks and reveal) and called it a Bronco XL or something, I would most definitely buy one.

Just be prepared for the folks who will post "GO BUY A FORD FLEX OR AN EXPLORER OR A BRONCO SPORT!!!"

Spray flex seal between the gaps if you dont plan to remove it

That is classic!!!

Ford should make a fixed top Bronco and market it as a Lincoln.

I like that too, they can just roll the Expeditions into the Bronco line.

It would be kind of crazy NOT to get one more bronco. Ford went through all the trouble and hoopla of creating the "Bronco brand" only to make a single bronco and a rebadged escape? What a waste.

I think originally they planned to add the Bronco truck to the lineup before it was cancelled. If they don't bring that back, then perhaps a fullsize, fixed roof bronco based on the f150 would be a good addition.

A Lincoln version sounds like a good idea too.

The fact is that most Wrangler and Bronco owners buy those things for the "open top" experience.

Jeep themselves estimated that only 10-15% of their wrangler customers will take their wrangler offroad, so most people actually dont even buy them as offroad/overland machines.

They have to build the trucks that the customers will actually buy, and they obviously did a great job.

I wont blame them if they never make a fixed roof version .

Funny I was thinking of other roof options as well. I don’t like the useless misplaced seam above rear glass in the hard top. A true one piece would be cool. As just a hard top giving a similar look to the soft top with all windows out. So a hard 1 piece top with removable windows might be cool. More options the better.

I agree, a factory 1 piece option could be good.

Some things that would be nice with the fixed roof are the sound deadening, , structural rigidity, less rattles etc...

I bought my Bronco because I can remove the top. That said, I am fine with the extra ‘noise’ that it may create. It’s a Bronco, not a LandRover.

What if I told you there already was a fixed roof Bronco on the market?...

What if instead of sound deadening, they offered a big sliding panoramic roof like the mustang and continental once had?
