Hi everyone! I picked up our 2026 Badlands a couple weeks ago and just wanted to share my build as I go along. My goals for this build is to honor a lot of the factory capability of the Badlands spec and augment some of the daily functionality, overall aesthetic, and add some features that I...

Glad you enjoyed! Ill see if I can crawl underneath and check out those dampers after the kiddos are asleep. Here are some quick shots with non-squatch flares. I scooped up some used ones cheap as a proof of concept.

I've worked with Cody Adams at Larry H Miller Draper. No complaints about him. We worked out a deal on a '18 Expy, but that's been 7 years now and those were far different times...

I'll have to check it out. Apparently you can now complain directly to the man now? This is new to me.

Knob comparison: New 2026 2023

Lookin good! I actually laughed when I saw the dimmer tab, I forgot they existed... reminds me of my '89 Ranger. Agreed. It is super frustrating to have a great experience with a product but then have all those little details and features that helped make it special removed for, let's be...

Nice! Nothing too crazy, probably headed for a "factory +" type spec. Life is busy these days so gotta keep my garage time limited. Right now Im thinking Homelink visor, non-sas fenders, leather shift knob, mirror pod lights, fogs…..lol Maybe a Ford Performance tune to make up for the extra doors 🙂

New zone lighting pics. Good for a night time tire change, not as good for helping a buddy with theirs.

The color is shifty for sure! "New new" because I can spec it out just so (or so I thought lol...) Yes, this is the new Non-squatch Badlands wheel/tire combo. I just checked the order guide too, and sure enough no mirror lights or Homelink listed. Still available, just no mirror lights on...

I know, I held on as long as I could. Just need a little more space these days and Im ok with that 🙂

It does have 360 cameras, ACC, B&O.

Hi everyone! Picked up our 2026 Avalanche Grey 4dr Badlands non-Squatch Lux on Friday and I thought I would share some interesting findings after spending a couple days with it. Not sure what all has been covered or is common knowledge but just wanted to share some year model changes for anyone...

Im interested in a trade. Looking to swap my SAS for Non-squatch. I have a '26 Badlands, brand spanking new, so hoping yours are in pretty nice shape too??

So looking at it for a day now it took me a second to see what's going on. In person it has grown on me, but it's still just off. At a glance it looks sick but the more I look the more it looks off. Slightly too sunk for my taste. That's what I was thinking too. Like were they selling a bunch...

I know! I was hoping it would land during this little warm up we're having. Looks like it should stay nice for the next week er so too 🤞 Couple first thoughts: I actually really like the new Badlands wheels, GTD vibes. The tire choice is interesting, I wasn't expecting RTs but we'll see how...
