Don't have a Bronco and am looking for a Unicorn spec. I have spent a couple of hours searching the Ford website and other forums.
In AZ, very hot and also very cold in the winter in the Mtns at 9,000+ feet. So, sand to rock to ice will be possible each year.
Lots of highway driving. Phx to; Tucson, Sedona/Flagstaff ,Yuma/Dunes and winter trips to NE AZ or Durango, CO for skiing.
Family of four, "Soccer Mom" vehicle that my wife will daily drive and I will also take bow/rifle hunting, driving down 3 hours of dirt roads where a 4x4 truck w/open diffs would need 4L to get to. I have a free work vehicle and we have a Ram Cummins Tow pig for the 5th wheel.
My experience is between proficient and expert level off-roading, used to be a Gov't LEO drove Hummers/Raptors. Personal rock crawling heavy Blazers, Baja racing in Class 3, dunes in everything. I say this because I want 32" tires stock, I believe 35"'s are overkill on a platform this size based on our highway distances.

The conundrum is my wants.
Want 2.7L, 32" tires, hard top, tow package, rear e-locker, Dual Tops with Sound Deadener Hard Top (don't see this listed).

Any help would be appreciated!

Order a non-SAS Badlands w/ the above and enjoy it? Not sure on the dual top though.. however you can do better than the factory soft top after-market. I’d go hard top from Ford

Thanks, what’s SAS?
Sorry, Sasquatch package. The non-sasquatch Badlands specifically still retains some of the goodies found in Sasquatch-equipped ones such as better axles etc. Think of it as more “future-proof” even if you dont think you want bigger tires, lift, etc etc now... it’ll be better equipped to handle it in the future plus you saved money now.

Badlands without Sasquatach and Soft Top. Buy an aftermarket hard top. MIC top is shit.

Craigslist/Marketplace is littered here with soft-tops people ordered, before deciding it's to much trouble to keep switching. Most of these are still factory wrapped on the pallet. As an added bonus take-off 32" wheels/tires sets run $300-400.
The Black Diamond can be had, as you described.

A wife +kids daily would not be my choice and suspect that’s behind the well stocked used market for the Bronco. Great rig for its designed use, but daily soccer duties it’d be low on my list.

Also, wife’s daily and my hunting rig would not be the same vehicle.

Why hasn't anyone came back with a Black Diamond? 32" tires, comes with rear diff, available with the 2.7 and tow pkg, and it's also available with dual top and can even select the shadow black mod top if he wants with the four door.

This is the one that has everything he asked for. If he's looking for more then sure, BL, WT or big dog it with the Raptor.

You're absolutely right -- Black Diamond is closest to what OP asked for, unless marine grade vinyl isn't desired. As an added bonus, OP might find one with the slide out tailgate, if wanted (not available in the BL).

Yes, do a Badlands with Sasquatch package and hard top. Option the soft top, or find one used locally for cheap. Go on Facebook to the Arizona Broncos page and list your Sasquatch wheels and tires for non Sasquatch 32in wheel set. BOOM!!! Your done! Or keep the Sasquatch wheels and tires and add side steps for the stock Badlands rock rails from IAG.
