A multi billion dollar corporation that doesn’t give a sh*t what it’s “customers” think because: 165,000 reservations. ?‍

JK

I agree with you but that kind of move WILL lose some long time customers. Just saying. There was a time when a company did what they said I guess not so much anymore.

REALLY hoping this is accurate and intended. It's a win win for Ford, easy way to get on the fencers like myself to add $1895 onto the bill when it includes both the engine and the trans.

I have been over it a bunch of times, and I think it’s legit. I just can’t see Ford making a mistake like that across every trim level. It would be a major mistake, and that pricing is in line with mustang as mentioned above. I’m going with it....no way Ford is that incompetent. They want to make it more inviting for people to go 2.7.

I think B & P is wrong. I can't see them upgrading to a 2.7 for only $300. I hope it's right but think about how Ford has done on this launch and tell me you trust anything they say.

Another comment/issue....I see the AUTOMATIC comes with the sasquatch.....AND it comes with the 2.7 bigger motor..... if you buy BOTH the sasquatch pkg AND larger 2.7 motor....shouldn't you get a discount on one of the pkges? its like your paying TWICE for the automatic transmission...? or am I missing something??? thanks!

I noticed the same thing.

No way the pricing is a mistake. It's probably the number one upgraded option picked by customers And I'm sure they reviewed it before the launch

That is true, it would be the single most common...and the fact that it is still up and would have been super quick to change means it is valid...I would bet.

What makes me think it's a mistake is if you add the 2.7 to the OBX, which already has an auto, you're charged the full $1895. I think there are a few major glitches that they'll correct. Another one is on the BB, if you add the mid package for $1495, you get the $1595 auto for free? That can't be right, as much as I wish it was.

Edit - I forgot to mention that when I first built a BB last night, I added 2.7, mid, and auto all for only $1895. I was ecstatic until I realized it had to be a mistake.

Unless these are mistakes, in which case I'm pissed and won't be as happy with my purchase that'll happen either way

Can't remember where I saw it last night on B&P, but did anyone else read that premium fuel is required on the 2.7? Not that I'll be deterred by that, but I've never had to run premium in anything except my '66 Chevelle...LOL

 

[lsustang05]

They have publicly announced the price it is what it is. It would be a really bad move on Ford's part to change things around now.How stupid do you have to be to make a move like that.

Probably as stupid as a company who shows off vehicles with options that don’t exist and won’t exist and then they’ll say “CoNcEpT vEhIcLe NoT fOr SaLe”

I read somewhere that you don’t need to. However the hp/tq numbers were based off premium. So like anything else you could probably expect to get lower miles per gallon and performance with 87 octane. I can actually tell the difference in 87 vs 93 in my Audi S3. Runs like shit on 87

It requires the auto. It doesn't include it. The sasquatch will be the same price if it were matched with manual as well.
