I just did the build configuration and it looks like $7385 minus $1595 so more like $6k ish

Did not realize the larger tires and wheels was not part of my original figures. Yours are probably the right numbers then.

Basesquatch is definitely the best option. To be fair, I couldn’t afford any of the higher trims. Especially since squatch, 2.7, and auto were deal breakers for me.
I was in the same boat but I"m waffling. For the longest time I said no 2.7 and sas were deal breakers, and I was really trying to keep the build under 45k, which only gives me the Base as an option. But now Black Diamond is looking good with no sas and added mid package. Added less than 1k to the build and I know the wife would appreciate the extra cabin amenities.

That's what these dealerships don't realize, if they try to stick it to us now we can just cancel, wait, and get better packages. When I place my order I calculated in the fact that this was a first year release and it would likely have several recalls and issues. I firmly will not pay above MSRP even if my bronco does show up in less than 2 months.

I even asked if anybody had tried to buy the demo units yet and they said no.... Yes some of us are obsessed with these vehicles, but many of the population don't want a manual, two-door, pleasure vehicle.

I am in the same camp. Was a early day one reservationist and really debated on getting the auto trans but not what I really want so cancelled in March and will be patiently waiting for the base squatch manual.

I'm a 99 code. If base mansquatch isn't offered, I will just get something else.

I was wondering the same about these "Accessory Wheels" in the Base's B&P...... what size they are and what tires are mounted on (if they even come with tires).

Another alternative I'm thinking of is buying a set of these Ranger 17" steelies...... powdercoat them white afterwards. Voila!

Similar to the BD trim. An OG-look but in bigger dimensions than the stock 16's. :D

for the black machined wheels definitely 18's the Bronco ones I find references that say 18x7.5

Just got to climb around on 2DR Base Squatch in Miamisburg, OH at Interstate Ford. Rapid Red looks good, but I still think Velocity Blue will look better. The 2DR looks huge. 4DR doesn't seem as big. The 35's almost look like normal tires. That MIC top wasn't horrible, but it seemed like there were planks of plastic in the backseat area and behind. Think I'm glad I went with the soft top, even with never owning a convertible before.

I am a base order as well, I did change from a 2 door base Sasquatch 2.3 MIC top, door bags, aux switches and keyless entry to a 4 door base Sasquatch 2.7 with soft top, door bags, aux switches and keyless entry May and my reservation got pulled a couple weeks later- July 26th build week was my first week given then got a delay to Aug 9th week. Now yesterday I get an update that I have been assigned an actual build day Aug 13th. My reservation was on October 31st for the $2,000 off Invoice at Granger.
WOW, that’s awesome !

I‘m the exact same day reservation, also in on the GrangeTober deal. And my build is simpler, no SAS, just a manual trans Base with aux switches. I was figuring next year sometime, but maybe a lot sooner based on yours.
