Thanks for the info, however when I searched both of my questions, there's no answers to neither one of them.
Just people like me asking the same questions.
Thanks anyways.

Also, when building out an almost $50,000.00 SUV, why is Ford not offering ventilated/cooled front seats?! Am I missing something?
I understand that a lot of folks want bare bones and rugged, however, when you spend $50K on a vehicle that has heated steering wheels, heated seats and all of the other amenities,....why not ventilated seats?

I own a 2016 F150 and it has both heated and cooled front seats. Living in New Hampshire I use the heated seats often. I also use the cooled seats on some days since they are black.
For me, a brake controller in the Bronco would be helpful. Love the one I have in my F150.
In many ways, the Bronco brings superb suspension, GOAT modes, and other off-road capabilities which my F150 is lacking. The Bronco will take me places I could never go in my F150.
They are each different and designed for different objectives. I am confident I will like my Bronco as much as my F150 and I will like each for different reasons. I hope you will enjoy your Bronco as well.

Are the two doors actually going to be bigger than the four door sport models?

Yes, the doors on the two door are actually bigger than the four door. Same with the rear window on the two door -- it's bigger on the two door. Personally I think the two door is more proportional and better looking and these two dimensions are key in that aesthetic. Your mention of the Bronco Sport is a bit confusing, though, honestly. Here's a good read from CJ:

You're not missing anything. As for why... beats me! I bet it will be offered in MY22 or MY 23 on the Lux Package, but I'm not waiting for ventilated seats no matter how much I love them :LOL:

Thank you very much! That's exactly what I was looking for!
The Two door is definitely the best looking one for me and you are correct, it looks more proportional than the four door.
I guess that I'll wait until the initial first year hype is over with and some of the kinks are worked out then head over to see my buddy at my local Ford dealer to get employee pricing. It's a nice perk to have when you worked at a Ford dealership for 12 years and are still friends with the finance guy.

Not Me!!
I've had them in my past 8 vehicles since 2010.
I also live in Charleston South Carolina, it's a Must Have Deal Breaking option for me at this point in my life. It's literally the only option that I MUST HAVE!!
First world problems, I know.

You are SO right on the search feature not always returning what one is looking for; regardless, that's why we are a forum, for people to ask questions. Keep asking until someone answers sufficiently and to your satisfaction or directs you in the right direction.

People need to remember - NOT EVERYONE is at the same place in their build or their search... it serves no one to shut people down. Then we become like the other forum. If someone doesn't like a question... they need to just move on and let the person be helped by others. Pretty simple stuff.

You are the best!! Now I know who I can rely on for pertinent information without condensation. 8

Cooled seats are great, but I don’t know if the Bronco is the platform for those. With wash out interior and such. I wouldn’t be surprised if they do offer it in the future as an adder to the lux pkg. the reason the Broncos are selling for $50k is because of the off road goodies. Shocks suspension goat modes and the like. Those things are expensive.

Agreed, my daily is an MDX and I will be giving up some creature comforts but I am ok with the compromise. The trade-off is worth it to me for the Bronc image and off road capability. :)

Exactly. Ventilated seats are perforated to allow the cool air to flow through. They also let dust, mud and rain flow into the seat. I can't imagine the seat is going to stand up to those elements for very long.

I'll be happy to have a bronco that will have air conditioning, radio, and cruise control for a change :)

I guess when I'm hot I'll just...take the top off

Seriously though, I've rarely used cooled seats in the vehicles I've had that had them. Since I'm ordering cloth, I don't see as much of a need. Leather might change my mind.

And all of you with the $50,000 builds. I'm freaking out about my 40,000 BB 4dr.
