2021 Bronco on 33's vs 90's Full Size Bronco on 37's and lift

Keep in mind we have no clue on gas mileage yet.

All these Squatch owners may very well be surprised if they only get 15-17 MPG. Which isn't that much more than the old FSB's.

I DON'T CARE ABOUT GAS, IT"S A WRITEOFF....

I'm guessing that the EPA MPG will be above the 22.5 Gas Guzzler tax. If it isn't we are all in for a rude awakening.

Edit:
while Broncos may not be classified as cars and possibly exempt from the Tax Chart below, they will apply toward Ford's CAFE numbers;
For model years 2017-2025, a manufacturer's light truck fleet shall comply with the fleet average fuel economy standard calculated for that model year according to Figures 2 and 4 and the appropriate values in Table VII.

Yeah, I had a '94 with the 5.8L (351W). I was lucky to get above 14 mpg. Usually got around 12 on average.

It had the 33gal tank and I remember when gas prices first started going up in the early 2000s, I was fueling up and the pump shut off on me. It took me a few seconds to realize that I had hit the pre-set dollar limit when using a credit card! (I think it was $50 back then)

Sure why not? I'll toss his ass in the dungeon



Would like to hook them up axle to axle, and see who wins

Or maybe see which one can tow a 24' boat... Just saying

The new Bronco can do it, just the door plate will restrict you!

Can I get the one on the right? Bet it has a V8... maybe even a 351

Yea, and probably putting out a whopping 200hp....

Can confirm. 4 door Sasquatch is a big boi in person

Dumb question but will it fit inside a standard garage?

 

[j_marinelli]

If I do get the Sasquatch, I'll likely downsize after the tires wear out. For a daily driver I'd probably be happier with 33-34.0". By the way in case it's news, the "35's" on the Sasquatch is actually closer to 34.5".

Technically 34.4"

Yea, and its got that junkyard door option that is no longer on B&P for some reason...

You always like my stories but this one is short.

Years ago a had an 88 F-250, 8800 GVW, 5SPD ( granny gear 1ST), 300 6CYL. A guy I was working with had an early 00's F-150 with a 5.4. I said come on lets hook bumpers !! He responded "nope", " I know what your truck can do, I don't care if is a 6CYL. That thing will drag my ass across the parking lot."

We never did hook up. I was just shocked he didn't want to. But he is right. I used my truck to pull a Bobcat out of the culvert at my cabin one time. People there said "That ain't got enough ass for that" Proved them wrong. I wheeled so many trails in that thing, mowing over stumps, logs, and rocks hiding in the ferns. If you would find yourself in a pickle, just put it in granny and let it eat. That thing was a BEAST !!

That motor got a bad reputation for power, because back in the 80s they paired it with a 2.73 and the Mazda 5sp for fuel economy, it was rated for more torque and just slightly less hp the the 5.0. Reasonable gears made a huge difference. I6 typically last forever too, partially due to the even cycle fee wear of the vertical configuration.

Looks good wish the 2021 was a touch wider in the body like 4 inches. The volume of a FSB can be quite amazing sometimes. 3 Propane tanks, laundry bin, plants from the nursery, 2 60lb dogs, 3 small and 1 huge bags of groceries, lumber up top, and a fridge freezer between the front seats. We call that a wednesday out here. When we are loaded up like that we dont need to lock the hubs on our driveway. Maybe they will come out with a new FSB one day in a 2 door proper style.

If those are 33s, I’ll be quite happy with that look.

They are 33’s

 

[AKBronc49]

I'll be very happy with the stance of my SAS 4 door I believe

 

[Rhino67]

I think there are going to be a large amount of people who will be truly shocked when their Sasquatch 4 door arrives.

Does it feel bigger than a 4 door Wrangler on 35's? I'm hoping so! But guessing not.

 

[BadlandsBronc21]

I have 35s on my Tundra so kind of know what to expect but looking forward to the Quatch option
