To be fair, 6G doesn't have embargoes to honor, I don't think, so it was posted there first. But thank you for the cross link, Rydfree!

My nice to haves:

I'm not in the market for a new Bronco anytime soon, but it'd be nice to see what options would be available potentially as parts or in the future on used models.

Well looking at the new 2025 order guide , some folks will be happy and others a little disappointed.

I was just at my dealer the other day and talking to the salesperson while waiting for my oil change to be completed. I had mentioned that I was interested in the new stitched dash, digital dash and possibly any new colors that may be released. I think I'll keep my '23 for awhile. I see nothing except the possible digital dash that would entice me to trade my baby in anytime soon :)

I hear you!

I always wanted the heated steering wheel, and the shocks are nice, but I'm not giving up the 2.7 in a 2-door Badlands.

And what is the reasoning behind getting rid of the 2 door in Heritage edition ? The original Broncos were only 2 Doors, lol

I feel like a low take rate hurts all us who love 2-doors, manuals, Antimatter Blue, you name it. If it's not being bought, away it goes.

Thanks @Laura for adding order guide to this post!!
This takes the guessing game out of play. The truth has been posted!!

Guess I should hang on to my Black Diamond fender badges that I just took off!

It just seems logical that if you offer a 2dr in any trim that the "Heritage" edition should be the one to keep.

And they finally gave the Everglades the boot. Kinda sad because I think it is a super nice package, bang for your buck wise. but kinda nice knowing I have a real unicorn with a DS Glades. I guess they have made more than 1966 Glades. But most of the bits will live on, wheels, Fenders, Desert Sand. And I bet they offer the Snorkel as an option on the 2.3L. lots of RND on that to just throw it away.

Yeah, that one was always interesting why it didn't take off more. It's a useful trim at a good price.

My nice to haves:

• New paint colors, specifically: Mill Valley Green, Boxwood Green, Village Green, Harbor Blue or Grabber Blue
• Pricing held or at an increase no more than roughly 3%
• Some interior trim color package variability, e.g., what if I don't want orange in a Badlands, give me some other options. Add a surcharge if necessary. Have some be no extra cost and others be extra cost.
• Air vents in the rear somewhere
• Cup holders in the rear middle fold-down arm rest

I'm not in the market for a new Bronco anytime soon, but it'd be nice to see what options would be available potentially as parts or in the future on used models.

They could offer the Everglades interior trim color. its a nice neutral green. looks like medium grey to me but I am RG color blind, so... and they won't be using it any more.

That'd be nice for 2026, I guess, at this point. Or, mid-year 2025. I have a Badlands and I have the orange. It's just not something I like very much. It's not a huge deal (obviously I bought it with it in there), but it'd be great to have solutions that don't involve custom colored stickers.

From a business standpoint, they could charge for non-standard interior coloring and give it a margin of 40% or so above their costs in the factory. It probably wouldn't get huge take-rate at the upcharge but the option would be nice. Kind of like how some other companies (I'm thinking Mercedes) charge for things like blacked out emblems and such.

Thanks for the updates!

Okay, now we need to find a way to retrofit the rear vents to our 2021-2024 4-door Broncos. I'm hoping the new dash cluster will be plug and play.

Ford Authority showed a picture of the new instrument display.
That is much better than the current design. Should have been like this from the start.

Same display as my F150… nice getting away from the analog dial on left…

I said from the start that the demographic they targeted would ruin it, I was right.

It's not my preference to get away from the analog dials, but, after having the 7MT and having no tach, they absolutely should have swapped the analog dial out for an analog tach on the manuals. So overall, this is an upgrade all around, far better for those who like the digital and better for manual owners.

Unfortunate reality I've been stuck in for awhile now as a manual transmission fanatic. Still can't believe Ford brought one back for the Bronco though, but I am SUPER glad it did.

As far as 2-door vs 4-door... I'll admit I was part of the problem. I would LOVE a 2-door Bronco, but I couldn't have justified buying a Bronco if it wasn't available in 4-door. Just from a family financial perspective it wouldn't have worked.

Once the kids are out of the house though... 2-Door Bronco here I come!

Ford created the problem because in the beginning they wouldn't build two doors.That was part of why they lost 70,000 reservations.They catered to the luxury mall crawler crowd.They should have been steered into Exploders instead of Broncos, ironically that'd what some of the Bronco trade ins are going into.
