We use a sunshade and we have tinted windows. Of course when you first get in the seats are hot, but we are not having swamp ass problems. We often go out and crank it a few minutes before we leave to help alleviate the heat problem. We finally got our gearshade put on yesterday!

maybe use the remote window roll down feature (hold unlock for 5 seconds) to let the car air out before getting in?

a good ceramic tint on the windows and windshield will also help keep some heat out of the vehicle, it's done a decent job on ours up here in IL but we dont get nearly as hot as TX
Yup, already have high end cermaic tint as dark as the law allows here. And use a windshield sunshade too.

Anyone living in Texas should have known you don’t do MGV or even leather, especially in a vehicle that goes topless. That’s why I went cloth in mine in Arizona, and it’s perfect.

Even white MGV on boat seats in the Midwest gets too hot to touch on a sunny day.
I bought a mannequin. So my choice was MGV, or no Bronco. I'm ordering a wildtrak whenever banks open again.

Imagine there isn’t any AC. Imagine using a key and having to pump the accelerator to start your vehicle. Imagine having to manually crank your windows to get them either up or down. Imagine wipers had only two speeds. Imagine if there was a radio, it only received AM stations. Imagine non tinted windows. Imagine a ride so harsh, the fillings in your teeth rattled. Young folks are soft. Lol

Gonna go order some seat covers now.
I love the MGV, but wanted something to keep the sun off the seats when parked, so I ended up purchasing these...

Seat Armour SA100FORG Grey 'Ford' Seat Protector Towel

Looks like the price went up a bit from when I purchased, but I love them. When I get in, I simply swing the one on my seat around, so I get the MGV when driving, but they don't get scorching hot while parked.

I like it…MGV is by far the best choice available. We are at the beach right now and I thank God I got this over any other option. It’s definitely the way to go…if you actually drop the top and use it off road and on the beach.

Drove a BD at the Drive the Bronco event. Wasn't even hot yet, maybe mid 90's. The MGV was uncomfortably hot. In AZ, leather can literally burn your skin when it's actually hot out (116-118) and much hotter in your vehicle.

Main reason I ordered a Base. If Ford let me have cloth on the BD I would have bought that.

Making me miss my 65 Ford. At least it had an automatic choke, my 69 F-250 had a manual choke, or as my little sister calls it "the thingie you pull out to start old cars"

Bias ply tires... Do they even still make those?

I'm old, fat and have had vented seats for a few years now.

No way I was getting MGV or pleather for my daily driver in Georgia w/o vented seats.
