I do enjoy folks saying their X y,z build is now ‘rare’. Like there’s collectors out there looking for mass produced vehicles.
It'll matter 50 years from now when people are restoring 6G Broncos. They'll either be replacing the electronics with analog stuff for pure off-road use, or installing expensive substitute electronics sold to rich collectors.

Don't figure on making any money (or even breaking even) holding onto your Bronco that long. And, don't count on gasoline being particularly available or affordable at that point.

I never considered a 4 door and never would.

Apparently I have rare tastes: 2 door BD, MT with HPR.
I never considered a 2 door and never will. Need something I can sleep in the back. RTTs are not for me, nor are ground tents.

well, the order guide seems to indicate that OBX gets the 4.27 with SAS, as well as front locker. So there's that.
You might want to get that dyslexia checked, there is no 4.27 axle available for the 2025 Bronco, period.

Sasquatch package is always the 4.7 differential.

The only non-sasquatch advanced 4x4 rear locker available is the 4.46 M220. In the Big Bend with Black Diamond package it is paired with the M190 4.46 open differential, and in the non-sasquatch Badlands automatic it is paired with the M210 4.46 locking differential.

I do wonder if gasoline will be hard to get, expensive and when. I personally despise electric vehicles and will never, ever own one. I'd rather a pedal bicycle. Closest I may get would be an electric bike. I may not have to worry as in 50 years I won't be around anyway. I'll drive my classic 87 Chevy truck to the end.

It's like the Wrangler Sahara. I'd be surprised if it went anywhere. I could be wrong though.
I put Rubicon take-offs on my Sahara and had a "nicer" Jeep that was still capable off-road and in mall parking lots.

I would be team 2 door but the lots were saturated with 4 doors and got a great deal.

Looking back on things now I'm glad I never changed my order to get my Bronc sooner. Glad I waited it out even though Ford kept moving the goal posts.

My condolences to the people who Ford made your car obsolete.

In my opinion Outer Banks is the next one to go.
2-door Bronco is still the King.

0% chance they eliminate OBX. It would be like Jeep cutting the Sahara....

We wouldnt have considered the 4 doors if the 2 door had seating for three in the back.. got 3 kiddos and didnt want to have to take two vehicles everywhere.
Agree, 2dr is perfect for empty nesters or an "extra" vehicle.

We have 3 kids (and car seats) in the back of the OBX. Trunk has plenty of space for soccer balls too ;)

It was very smart of Ford to make the Black Diamond an add on instead of a stand alone model and I think the Badlands always should have been able to get the better suspension as an option, but my Area 51 2 door Wildtrak is still just as bad ass as it was last week and now there will be even less of them on the road. I will be keeping it.

Let's be honest, for most buyers the Wildtrak trim was sasquatch with black wheels...
