If only Ford offered it with a manual, I know it’s supposedly going to be available in MY22, but I want it as soon as possible.
In a perfect world, I’d order a BaseSquatch with a manual transmission and MGV seats. But, I’ll be happy with the Bronco I ordered, some day.
The young man inside of me had visions of nostalgia shifting through a manual, but the old man I am said do you really want to be rowing gears daily with a 4.71? Also, I'm not sure about how the manual works (I know the auto shifter in my most current F-150 is not connected to the trans, because I've knocked it out of gear at speed and nothing changed) - so fly-by-wire?
The MGV seats and washable floorboard do sound cool, but I've had cloth in both my '86 Bronco and 2 F-150's (only my current Lariat has leather), and a set of seat covers work well enough (never had the urge or need to wash it out, just wet vac and steam clean).
I do wish Ford (along with other manufacturers) would allow for full a la carte builds, or at least the good-old-boy customization we could pull off back in the '70's.
