@mrlevine and @Ford Motor Company won't do anything at this point. They both blatantly lied when they promised over and over again that reservariont would be built in order (other than for constraints) and that they would be completed before stoick orders were built. Both blatant, and repeated...
I wouldn't use that chart...it only takes 1/3rd of the gearing into account. Use a calculator in which you can put in all the factors and compare. Like this one:

I wouldn't want to run 35s without re-gearing, but a lot of people think it's fine.
Sure you could...but people getting in the back generally don't have the app, nor do they want to take the time to pull out the phone, open the app, find the unlock...
This is a minor pain. I often have the front doors off and the rear doors on for kid's safety,but the kids can't get in because...
It's an enthusiast vehicle...and people wave. It's not a Jeep thing; it's an FJ thing, a Gen 1 Bronco thing, a motorcycle thing. Do 20 something girls in their white Jeeps wave? not really...and non-enthusiasts who bought Broncos because they thought it was an "SUV" won't either. For those in...
I would go 17s...better for airing down/off road, and they look better on a truck meant to be off road. More tire choices too in that segment (off road tires).
$4k is insane. I would say $1500 max from a 3rd party. I like the top, but would expect to get a new take-off for around $1k-$1200. I don’t know why @Bestop_Team is not putting out versions that go all the way back. They must have some kind of deal with Ford that prevents it.
Most here do it because they like the look and it’s different
, but reality is that it really hurts the look of the truck, and also makes it less capable as you point out. It’s a mod to be doing a mod.
I usually don’t mind their videos…but this one was bizarre. Their main complaint was durability on the trail on a truck in which they haven’t broken anything. I don’t have any of the fit and finish issues they have (it’s way better than Jeep inside and out); and haven’t broken anything either...
I have a Badlands with Sasquatch..and it drives great. I think you're crazy not to Sasquatch it. The truck looks way better, has significantly better ground clearance, has taller gears, a bit of extra lift. It's a no brainer for what it costs to add on.
Sasquatch take offs is not a bad way to go for the OP. If he doesn’t have an MT, he’s missing out on the taller gearing of SAS, but that’s not a problem unless he decides to go 37s down the road, and even then it’s probably ok, just not as good as the 4.70s.
As to SAS tires, I’m really happy...
I have had several pairs of KO2s, and the Sasquatch tires are better in almost every way, unless you need a tougher tire in load range D or E. I would not go less than D if replacing tires due to the increased durability on the trail.
We just got back from a week in Avon...drove all over down there, wherever we could. Our favorite was driving the sand road down to the point in Hatteras. It's a super fun drive and the ocean down there was amazing. Clear, warm, tons of shells and different ocean areas for the kids to swim. I...

Nope. I turn the vibration off, but adjust lane keeping intensity to high.
