Yes. I have been following that model. It looks to be a truly good body-on-frame off roader.Not a sports car, but I was very happy to see that the 2021 Ford Bronco is available with a 7-speed manual transmission. Perhaps there is still some hope.

You can option the 6+1 7-speed manual on the 2.3L Ecoboost four cylinder turbo engine. 270hp and 310 ft-lbs of torque with 2WD/4WD modes. And a two-door available. Pretty good for a $29k starting price. I will look at one, actually.
Right now the only thing Ford has made a mistake on that needs correcting is that the “Sasquatch” package which among other equipment gives you factory locking differentials is available on every Bronco trim level *except* the manual. Granted you can add that equipment yourself far more easily than you can add a manual to a vehicle which never came with one but they need to fix that error in their product planning.
Still, Ford has pretty much knocked the Bronco out of the park.
Maybe there is still hope for a manual MKV indeed, Jeff.
