I don't need 35's and don't want the crap fuel milage from them when 33's will be perfect for my needs.

I am getting the badlands without Sasquatch.
The big question for me is manual vs 2.7L.

My concern is going with 35" w/SAS is the brakes . I'm going BL for sure .I have a 2019 jeep now and when I put on the mopar lift and 35's I could tell I'd made a big change in the way the brake pedal felt. Has everyone seen info about the brakes on the SAS?

Considering it .... it can be basically a manual Sasquatch, which is what I really want.
We'll see what the B&P can do for a Black Diamond also .....and MAAYBE they will change their minds about the Mansquatch.

Ford has been known for soft brake feel for FOREVER .... so it may not be a change for you. LOL

If your not taking it Off Road wouldn't an Outer Banks make more sense? Your never going to use the Front and Rear Lockers, Bilstein suspension or the sway bar disconnect you can use that extra money towards more tech and interior creature comforts.
Depends.... I might just want all those things just in case I ever need to traverse a mountain. You never know. Like I said, my main issue is determining if the mud tires are going to be somehow bothersome to me (vs 33s). That being said, I'd like to see if the added height is visually apparent (for the Sasquatch lift and the extra tire). If not, then I would just to the 33s.

"Budget" 4 Door Badlands-Sasquatch Configuration - Using Survey Pricing

Four Door Badlands - $44590
Destination Charge - $1495
Standard Package - $0
Sasquatch - $2500
2.3 EcoBoost with Auto Tranmission - $1600
Grey Hardtop - $700

Total: $50885


I would love your feedback regarding my potential 4dr Badlands Sasquatch configuration. My desires are:

Keep price down
Bad ass big tire look (high ground clearance good!)
Good highway vehicle. Yes, Bronco are not built for highways, but some will be better than others

What I don't care about are large screens, other electronics, heated seats and steering wheel, auto dimming mirrors, high beam assist, any other types of assistance, leather doo dads, remote start, floor lighting, etc, etc and on and on

Thanks for your help!
Broncos aren't built for highways? Ummmm OJ Simpson would like a word with you.

Yea but then you lose that 2 inch lift right? The only way to get the lift is to go with the Sasquatch. (Unless you go aftermarket I guess)

Every Bronco in the Line up is more then Capable. Every one of them are fine for Off Roading. The difference is do you need it for Extreme Off Roading like expert Rock Crawling or not? If not the Outer Banks is plenty especially if tech and creature comforts are important and its mainly your daily driver. JMO...

As much as I love the look of a Squatched Bronco. I'm starting to feel that the hit to MPG and cost of the 35s just won't be worth it for me. So, even though I really will never use the Swaybar Disconnect, I'm tempted to go over to a non-Squatched Badlands from my Wildtrak.

Curious as to how many people are getting the Badlands but not the Sasquatch package, do you feel the trim is sufficient for your needs and the upgraded package doesn't warrant the cost for you?
That is what I am debating right now. I think initially the BD will be sufficient for me being new to off roading. The truck will be my DD so the 33's would be better for that. Think I might hold off on the Sasquatch. That way I can see what the aftermarket does on lift kits, pick out my own tires and maybe switch out the Bilsteins for some Fox units.

I’m on the fence about the Sasquatch package. I live in SoCal, so MT tires aren’t really needed, I would rather have 35 KO2 tires. I also like the replacement rings on the beadlock wheels.

But I’m leaning towards not getting the Sasquatch package and get accessories instead, like the wench and the slide out shelf.
Does the wench work the winch? Or give you pints if ale haha? In all seriousness it's a tough decision for me, in the end it comes down to seeing the b&p.
