One of the biggest head scratchers with the options and packages has to be heated seats and steering wheel. You get the heated seats with the Mid package. But have to skip up two packages to Lux just to get the heated steering wheel. Yeah I know it's an upsell tactic. But a shifty one for sure.

To me it would make sense to just offer a cold weather package....

Heated seats
Heated steering wheel
Engine block heater
Remote start
Maybe even more aggressive a/t tires for trims that don't have them

I'm in Arizona. How about a hot weather package with ventilated seats and a chilled steering wheel? :)

Amazingly even in our desert climate, my wife uses heated seats 6 months a year!

I agree they should have a cold weather package. Heated seats they are awesome. Heated mirrors too. But really don’t know about a warm steering wheel, seems more for a Mall Crawler if u ask me.

Since they are naming it for parks, maybe the "Bronco Glacier"? :sneaky:

I had a couple of leased BMW i3's and they had the heated steering wheels and seats...they definitely helped in the winter to keep the range up and not have to use the heater.

At one time I would have thought the same thing, but once I tried it, I won't be going back if I can help it. It really is a nice option on a cold morning.

Heated mirrors are already standard on all models.

Good if you have really bad arthritis. I never had a vehicle with it until my current one. Love it.

Gotta say, as a building contractor that works in the cold for much of the year, there are few things better than a heated steering wheel.
