Why not have a solid top?

[Stevins]

I know that there will be plenty of hate on this post. Let’s get the obvious out of the way…some people love the removable top-but not me.

I would absolutely love to have an option for a solid and fixed roof on this bronco.

I have a 2022 Badlands squatch with hard top and lux package and I love everything about it….except the removable top.

It is literally the only thing about the vehicle that I do not completely adore. The water leaks and noise are ruining an otherwise perfect vehicle for me. It makes me consider switching to another vehicle, but I waited so long for this vehicle and nothing else really compares.

I’ll keep it and love it, but the solid hard roof would be a game changer for me.

Maybe the Bronco Sport is more your speed?

Wow. Thanks for that high quality comment. Try not to hurt too many people with your sharp wit.

I respect the opinion but for many of us, a roof off SUV limits our options. There are so many solid roof SUV options out there if that’s truly a desire.

I wouldn’t be remotely surprised if there was one in a refresh though.

ADV Fibreglass has a one-piece option, however it’s not available yet.

I agree.

Well as some of you may know, I ordered the Armadillo top. I do not have the hard top, but my thoughts with this top is that it will be a solid top with portals to open if I want the open air. Sort of like big sunroofs. If I want the back open, I can take the gulf wing doors off.

I feel this will take care of several things, add rigity to my RIG, quiet it down, and give me the option to have the roof open if I like. Also being aluminum, I know it will last.

Win WIn WIn.

Another roof option is the last thing FoMoCo needs to worry about. But to the OP, I get it.

I'm with you on this - I think a one piece body color top would be an awesome option for the people who would only occasionally remove the top. Extra sound deadening/etc.

Probably because the majority of people don’t want that.

I have not seen these threads yet. Thanks for sharing. I know it isn’t for everyone but the Bronco is perfect FOR ME with the exception of the removable top that I won’t use and causes all of my current issues with this otherwise awesome machine.

Personal opinion: I feel like in order for Ford to directly compete with Jeep, they offered the same two options Jeep offers which are hard and soft tops. I’m not a huge fan of hard top either but it’s not a deal breaker for me. I def agree with you though. If there was a solid top option would’ve 100% went with it

The removable top (and doors) is the only thing that makes it unique to any other SUV, besides the Jeep, which it was designed to complete with. The whole design is around a removable top. It wouldn’t need a full roll cage otherwise. There are better options for a fixed roof vehicle in my mind.

I would be game for a full one piece removable fiberglass or metal top option though.

agreed. Before ordering my Bronco, I looked into the Defender and the upcoming land cruiser (both fixed top) and ended up sticking to the Bronco
