So whats everyones preliminary thoughts?

[Pitpup]

Did they rename FighterJet Gray to Cactus Gray? Worse, no matter how many pics of Area 51 I see, and I am not colorblind, I still don't know what it looks like (not trying to be funny here) Is it gray? Is it green? What the heck is it? I've made my reservation but have no clue what color I'll order in December. GeezOhMan! Leaning towards Area 51... I dunno. (Nice problem to have!)

Looks kind of blue to me.

So is there really an antenna like this on every model. In some pics I don't see one. How can the Jeep not have one and this still has a ancient antennae?

Other things I want are cooled seats and a dual exhaust option.

I believe this is the Area 51 color. As that is the only color on the bronco sport site that comes anywhere close. It looks to be a blue-grey mixture. But you’re right it has looked different in every swatch we see. It’s not your eyes lol

Very underwhelming color options in my opinion. I think many will go after the red and orange as they are the flashiest of the colors. I don't mind the Area 51, but I'm still leaning Oxford White with the black modular top. I had my fingers crossed for a British Racing Green or Forrest, but, they didn't call and ask my opinion.

Oxford white with the Black modular top will be an excellent setup. Thats what im gonna get as of now.

Fighter Jet Gray is the color that is an option for the Mustang - and a few posts had photos of the Mustang showing it with black and with white stripes - which looked stunning. Then a post showed the Bronco with the Cactus Gray and it appeared to have a green cast to it - which I don't want when I am looking for a light gray paint. And as close as I look at the photos on Ford.com I just can't tell which ones are actually Cactus Gray and if they are I still can't tell what Cactus Gray really looks like.

Can get very expensive when you start adding on options. I will wait to take it out for a test drive and decide. No rush.

Packages are a mishmash of Luxury, Safety and Capability which disappoints. The manual only on the 2.3 is upsetting but not a deal breaker. Still need more info on 2 door and rear seat stowing, "fold flat" is often not really flat.

I still want one and got a reservation but I really need to see the Build and Price tool before I can say it will happen.

The options by model are available at this link:

Unless I am missing it, I don't see if I can get heated seats in the Black Diamond or the upgraded B&O stereo. Ideally I'd like to see what the costs are too.

Initial thoughts:
-It looks cool
-Top options are good. I'd be in the regular hardtop camp.
-I'm glad the auto-4x4 transfer case is available, but need more info on how it works. Is this the Raptor transfer case?
-Very disappointed about the limited availability of the manual
-Disappointed the 'all out desert runner' Wildtrack doesn't have upgraded shocks or limited slip diffs
-Really want to see some weight figures

Also interested in details on 4 auto case.

Also does the Bronco engage IWE via vacuum like the F150? Never even heard of this (Grand cherokee owner). Seemed plagued with problems for a bit on the F150 forums.

Fuel tank capacity.

I am loving the Bronco as an alternative to purchasing a new Grand cherokee (I am not a rock crawler). Currently own an 07 with 163k. The JL hasn't been speaking to me and I personally do not find the Solid front axles any benefit to me.

Heated seats are optional, No Lux option on BD so no B&O. Only Mid & Squatch packages available,

I do love the factory bull bar / steel bumper option. Just need something that can take a deer strike and still make it home...Fully understand damage will always occur.

The Bronco may be too wild for this mall crawler. I like the styling over everything else, but it seems like a pricey SUV to daily drive. Personally I would need to see any car in person before buying.

The Bronco sport is like my original Escape, and is great except for the need for more space. The explorer....is “fine,” the Highlander...ok.....styling these days all look similar. I don’t want a fast back or a roofline that gets lower front to back either....give me a nice looking truck-like box.

Maybe I’ll go the other extreme and get a transit (kidding!)

Thanks! Sometimes options like those can be added a la-carte. It would be a shame that you have to spend a bunch of money to get the LUX pkg for a stereo. I'd probably go aftermarket at that point. Anyway, it would be nice to have the actual Build & Price available to have a definite answer if they can be added or are only available within a package. Oh, I typed heated seats but I was thinking heated steering wheel. That was the other one I was thinking about.
