Now if we can get the 2.7.

The 2.7L with the stick is not going to happen for awhile, if ever, for many technical reasons that have already been discussed ad nauseum. Not being able to pair Squatch with the 2.3L manual was a strange development from the get go and simple to rectify.

This is great news! Smart move for Ford as they will now get the money everyone would Have spent with aftermarket companies upgrading their manual Broncos. I think they realized alot of manual drivers wouldn’t upgrade to auto just to get Squatch features.

Now we need 2.7 Manual!

Now if this crazed bunch of Bronco enthusiasts will get white tops pandemonium will ensue...

Ahem, plus green body color and ventilated seats

And to finance the gap in expected revenue from the auto transmission, all sasquatch packages have been increased by $1600. You're welcome.

First time poster, long time stalker. I apologize if I sh!t the bed on this post.

This is great news Ford did this knowing they were (probably) going to lose some buys on the higher end trims, but also knowing that it will ultimately sell more Broncos and get them out on the road, which is really what's required to get the brand up and going. The Sasquatch looks AWESOME from the outside and is what will get people who see them into Ford dealerships to buy more Broncos. They played the long game here, smart move.

Manual + Sasquatch- For all the grief Mike Levine, and Ford have taken for B&P, how about a thank you for him, and Ford?

Thanks for listening to the most loyal and rabid Bronco fans.

Especially, if white hood whistles are included...

I thought the advanced 4wd was auto only? " a manual transmission and available advanced 4x4 system gives " Or is this one just a typo?

Advanced 4x4 standard on BL, so was always available with MT. You might be thinking of the trail assist (control, turn assist, etc which is auto only)

Sorry, but I don't thank people that either lie or play on words to string me along for months, and then all of a sudden give us one little thing to be happy about.

About all he did... Was say something big tomorrow... then tweets hours later Mansquatch. He had NOTHING to do with getting these guys ManSquatch, he just posted the news when they let him.

“Bronco Build and price goes live in October”

So basically they will wait till the last day of October and people won't be able to switch dealers. Sounds great

ask for a courtesy delivery from granger or Stephens and ford will deliver it to a dealer near you. No charge for the delivery but there will be most likely a $500 fee for the receiving delivery to do the paperwork for you.

Plenty of raptors guys do this.

btw ... most dealers are not going to match granger and Stephens. And if they were they would have already announced it. There is a dealer in Rochester that has announced they will do invoice and I will tell you if you want to know.

Rochester, NH? NY? VT? Can't sling around a name like Rochester in the Northeast. There's one per state lol. But yes I'd be interested to know.

I love ALL of the people here who don't realize that the B&P delay from September to October is BECAUSE of the change of option availability. The more they have to change, the longer the delays will be. The approval process in ford is not swift so this change just probably added 3 weeks of time onto the B&P. No, I am not talking about the coding process. I am talking about the approval and signature process, then the rewriting of PDL's, order guides, and then website content. Everyone gets their day and it doesn't usually happen in parallel.

that's so awesome. now i need a white top...
