high-level instrument panel

[Mopar2Bronco2021]

I'd actually prefer all analog gauges with just a simple data center personally ??‍ if we can't get a full digital setup. It's mixing the two willy-nilly that gives me the Forrest Whitaker eye twitch.

I prefer analog gauges as well. I also Iike to have that middle screen to browse through things like tire pressure, trans temp, engine temp, audio, gas mileage, etc. I’ve just gotten used to it because of my most recent vehicles. It’s pretty convenient.

this would not surprise me if there were two versions, Ford does this on the F150s.

I’m confused at your statement. So would you say that what Ford describes as “8-inch Color LCD Instrument Panel” closely resembles this picture below? I would say it does and I’m happy with that setup. The other picture I mentioned, won’t be in a Bronco based on Ford’s description.

See my edited post. You replied when I was editing.

Yes, the 8” is standard. This is the base, the high level has to be something more high tech in the upper trims? Same screen though.

My CX-5 has a HUD that shows speed, speed limit, stop signs, nav directions, lane departure, warnings for blind spot and auto braking, and cruise control info. This is the first vehicle I've owned with one and I really like it. Would have been a really cool option on the Bronco to have all that in front of you - thinking about the virtual display gauges showing tilt angles, drive mode, GOAT modes, lockers etc.

Yup I just read over it. I see what you mean for sure. What you’re saying would definitely be more consistent with how Ford usually specs out their vehicles. Maybe the Bronco is getting special treatment this time around in comparison to the rest of Fords. It sure seems like it at least.

It’s not too late, as they say, “Ford is listening”

has Ford ever had a heads up display? I know chevrolet has been doing it on many models (mainly Camaro and Corvette) for probably a decade.

Peeps appear to be confusing center touch screens with instrument panels. Instrument panels are traditionally behind your wheel, AKA gauge cluster.

My challenger Scat pack has 9 pages on the cluster. Speedo, tire pressure, it displays navigations directions there too. I have 0-60 timers, tachometer, oil pressure, air intake temp. So many options for it, it’s crazy.

I’m one for digital gauges over analog. My F150 was a Canadian truck (XTR package) so they swapped the dash over when importing. Every so often the analog speedo gets wacky but the digital gauges show exactly what’s going on.

I like knowing the exact readings vs “the needle is in the middle” but I also have a bluetooth dongle to read any sensor I want on my phone.

I just want a tachometer. Analog. Digital. I don't care. It's of mild importance when driving a stick to understand your RPMs. Ideally, they'd replace the unnecessary analog speedometer with a tach on the manuals.

Agree, that vertical numberless RPM bar is not ideal for a manual.

The Escape has one.

I don't like the look of that at all. Looks like an error box popped up on an otherwise promising interface.
