I’m leaning towards the Black Diamond with the manual. I think will be a pretty good all rounder and will fit in most people’s price range. I’m probably going to do it for price wise and adding a few options without making it too expensive

I reserved a OBX initially but kinda was rethinking it and leaning towards BD but giving up the 10 way seat (if that ends up being true) is not an option for me so I am kinda pigeon holed into OBX for sure.

Me too. Sounds like an after-delivery purchase so the question du jour for me is what do I do with five General Grabber 32s after I buy the BFG KO2s? Dont need a stack of off-size tires in the garage.
Just throw them on Craigslist for $250 and fuggedhaboutit

I’m mostly bummed the High package isn’t available, wouldn’t mind having the upgraded lights and bigger screen as an option for the BD. But since I’m mostly going with the manual, I either have to go with the BD or BL. The BL might be too much money depending how it could be optioned. But I’m digging the steel wheels and the rubber floor in the BD.

So, recent speculation about squatch and the manual transmission has me rethinking the BD. Also seems the washout interior may not be quite what I was expecting.

I’m now wondering about base or BB with manual squatch and aux switches might give me everything I want for less.

That B&P can’t get here soon enough.

Same here. If the MT is available with with the 2.7 I'm very likely (almost assured) to get a basesquatch, add the steel front bumper, and call it a day. If not then I'll stick BD with the MT.

I doubt we will see manual 2.7 but why not a basesquatch 2.3 Manual?

I Reserved a Badlands 4 door planning on manual but if we can get manual Sasquatch, I will probably go base

With the surveys out and potential pricing the BD to me still is a great base.


Getting the 2.7 with auto for $3500, the mid package for $1500, Tow Hitch $600 and $1900 for the top option still makes it a very attractive vehicle for $46,045 and if the 17" Black High gloss aluminum wheels aren't to bad, add those .... I think the 32" tires will look good.

Then again the Wild Track at $51,370 is attractive
Seriously a lot of whether I go BL over BD is what will those upgraded wheels look like. Are they the ones being shown on the Trail Rig? Those on the BD and I’m in.
God I hope so

Personal preference. If I go squatch I want the 2.7. I'm mandatory on getting the manual. So right now I can't do both. I reserve the right to change my mind. Which I'll probably do a few hundred times between now and December.

Seeing the news about possible Sasquatch package with mt, I now leaning on black diamond sasquatch with 2.3 mt.

Anyone else thinking about this if it's true?

Wheels are the last thing I would worry about. You'd pay the upcharge to BL instead of just finding and buying wheels for $1000 that you like instead? You can even recoup that cost by selling your brand new take-offs.

Yeah this is very reasonable for them to do.

I don't remember if I've posted here yet.

Anyway I was going to get (and reserved) the Big Bend. But then I saw some cool builds with steel wheels, and washout interior that could be useful for pets and the kids. So I'm going to most likely order a Black Diamond.

I don't care too much about the rear diff now, but I may want to grow into this truck so it would be good to have. And the front bumper/skid plate just looks cool, so there's that.

These are the optional black diamond wheels. These and the optional badlands wheels are the best wheels offered in my opinion.

These are sharp... maybe not enough to pull my from doing the squatched BD but still pretty sexy..
