LOL> I get that. So which option should I choose?
Uh,... 10A 2.7L sas....

Eta: Damn......

Eta2: since 2.7L Sasquatch is standard, that's what Wildtrack buyers are getting.

Why not 10A 2.7L with my model's standard tires? Which on the WildTrak are Sasquatch tires. This is what I'm confused about.

Yeah that's a tricky one. You WT people are going to mess with the stats!

Very true.

But also notice that the Base 7M take rate is very typical for today. under 7%.

Only the Sasquatch drives the take rate up.

Hard question for Ford: would a 2.7L Mansquatch add enough new sales to the equation to offset the cannibalized 2.3L Mansquatch sales to be worth it?

Fixed OP with edit.

Please vote Wildtrack as 2.7L Sasquatch, as this effects Ford CAFE #s.

Aiming for a Wildtrak. So, 10A, 2.7L, & Squatch.

I'm definitely getting a manual. Was willing to forego Squatch to row my own gears. Now that they have opened the door for Mansquatch... Well, who wouldn't want more power too? Wish they would offer the 2.7 manual, but I'm not waiting more years for Ford to string me along. I'm not getting any younger and I'm not made out of money. I want my BD manual however I can get it. Will be considering adding Mansquatch now that I can, but it sucks to have to get further delayed delivery that could put it more than a year away.

You left out the folks who are not interested in Squatching, won't go for the 2.3L but would take a Manual on the 2.7L. I don't know that is a large number but there are some.

Ford said no mansquatch. I told Ford I wanted mansquatch. Ford said OK you can have mansquatch. So, I’m getting mansquatch. Thanks Ford.

Look again. The 7M 2.7L choice doesn't specify Squatch or not. ;)

The %s have been very variable.
Since there is a large number of choices, and not yet a large enough amount of voters to smooth things out.

Also, since this is a forum for enthusiasts, it will most likely skew towards performance models and modifications.

I'll see what the exact cost ends up being but I'm planning on the Badlands 2.3L and 10A. I may consider the 2.7L if it doesn't impact the price too much. I still haven't decided on Buy or Lease and may not know any details on lease payments until late spring / early summer '21.

At the time of this post, going 2.3L 10A noSquatch looks like it would put you in the under 5% of production club.

I'm okay with that. The Badlands will have 33s with lots of bells and whistles. Coming from a JKU to a 2 door Bronco (with the 2.3L) the hp and torque will be similar. HP will be a little less and torque will be a little more in the Bronco. If I can get the V6 without spending a lot of $, great. If not, I'm fairly confident that set up will be okay.
