I am having the same dilemma. But for me in the long run I think I order squatch and downgrade in tire size if necessary. Here is why. I want the bigger flares, suspension and gearing. Downsizing tires will be easier than gearing etc if I decide I want 35s at some point.
The longer this drags out the more the emotions fade. The more the emotions fade, the greater the reality of price. If they price these to the moon, they will lose half these reservations. If anything, you make the first adopters get the cheaper deal and get them on the road. You jack the...
I think this thing is going to people's heads now. Look at Challenger Hellcats. First people overpaying tons. Now it's not even the most powerful so they are flooding the used market at 20k less than MSRP was. This is a Bronco. It's not going to end a collectors item. They aren't limited...
I would buy a Coyote Bronco as first choice. If they 392 the Gladiator I may go that route. A year still to wait on a Bronco and if they screw up this reservation stuff that allows dealers to gouge, I will not hesitate to bail. This is not some holy grail vehicle. Is anyone seriously buying...
If I lose my reservation, I will just wait an extra year and get a better deal in the process once the hype dies down. In the meantime, that’s 2 years for me to change my mind and get something else. I am not going to get stuck with a dealer now who is overcharging or not going to work with me...
There is more to the squatch than just 35's. To me, if you plan to go to the 35's on your own you have money better spent getting the package from Ford. Better shocks, gears, front locker, higher clearance fenders and all under warranty with trans/engine/speedo calibrated for it.
I am going 35's regardless, but in reality still ON the road way more than off. Nothing I cannot fix myself but really don't need the MT's for my purpose. Blasphemy I know! LOL
Same issues, I like OBX but hate the body color stuff. But, saw a pic of OBX with Squatch and looks like it may get black fenders with that, it can also get optioned with the modular bumper. I would jump up from BD to OBX is the fenders are black with the Squatch..
I don't lik ethe painted OBX flares either so was going to settle for BD but I saw a pic of OBX on the configurator thread and it looks like OBX with Squatch gets you black flares? Anyone else notice this. So I may go OBX 2.7 Squatch lux now. Plus can add front modular bumper to OBX.
