Yeah, with a Rubicon I can totally understand not wanting to give up the locker.
I want 33's as well, with the 4.7 gearing on the Sasquatch it will be 2,500 RPM at 80mph but that's what my wife's Venza turns at 80 so should be fine.
Kind of a big jump from the 2,000 RPM at 80MPH I have now on...
Yeah, I agree. well stated.
You can still get many of the other high value items like 2.7 and even add a lift and 33's to Base pretty easy too.
If I didn't really want the rear locker I would go BaseBase 2.7 myself.
I think you are right.
This super scientific, 100% accurate poll that is guaranteed to be representative of all future used Bronco purchasers definitely supports that.
If you are on the fence between going up a trim or adding Sasquatch it appears that among enthusiasts the Sasquatch package...
True, this poll only reflects the opinions of the bronco6G members.
I am sure that people in the future used market will come here to found out what to buy though :giggle:
In trying to get a rear locker I can either go Base+Sasquatch or Big Bend + rear locker for about the same $$.
In my mind the Base + Sasquatch will have lots more value down the road then the Big Bend fender sticker and a few convenience features.
But I wondered if that was the case with...
Yeah I was going to mention "all else being equal" assuming the exact same condition, miles and all the other stuff we look at when buying used.. but definitely agree.
Put on your "buying used in the future" hat ..
As we decide what we want to order on our Broncos I thought it might be nice to see which features would potentially be more desirable on the used market.
This could help in those cases where we are on the fence about certain features at order...
I just went with Granger. I didn't push the dealers around here too hard this time around. I did that when I bought my F150 and no one was willing to deal, so I flew to Dallas to buy one and drove it home. I figure Bronco would even be worse with the higher demand.
Plus I really enjoyed the 2...
To be honest I'm more interested in painting the wheel to match the ring. Kind of done with the black wheel thing..
Either way I think they look better matched.
These in white in 18" would be pretty cool. Instead of the gray pinstripe a thin red and blue like the old classic.
I remember my brother was so proud the day he put some of those on his Ford Courier pickup back in the early 80's
A cousin also had these on an old Scout..
An extra 143 rpm at 80mph over the 35's maybe?
That would be a rocket at stop light drag races though, super short gearing and smaller lighter wheels.
With the 2.7 tuned you might be able to wheelie
Another suggestion is to pick up one of these. When I move back to Japan it is on top of my list.

+1 on the suggestion to buy a Land Rover.
Or if you want a US vehicle this would be one of those rare times I recommend a Wrangler. If I am not mistaken they are offered there in RHD
