Ok, Thanks for the clarification!
I saw that, but I wasn't quite sure what it was saying or what exactly was determining the ride height on each shock.
Working from @Dads_bronze_bronco drawing and his link to the 4WP video information, here is a new comparison drawing between all models.

The difference in the tire height is less than .85”. Sasquatch runs a wider rim that balloons out more and isn’t as tall. If you were to mount the sas tires on the badlands rims, then you would be talking apples to apples.
I don't think we need to go down the mounted vs unmounted, 8" rim vs 8.5" rim, or laden vs unladen rabbit holes. We can just agree that's it's not quite an inch and move on.

First, the dude's laugh was indeed creepy.

Second, I'm definitely digging the squatch stance vs. non-squatched

Third, I'm still getting a non-squatched BL.
Yeah that's where I ended up too. The squatch looks good but heck living in the city with not the widest garage opening, I'd rather pick up the extra inch or two in less width. I'll be driving around on payment more than trails unless I hit the lottery. Squatch sure looking good though.

Trying to decide btw Sasquatch or not on a Badlands Lux Package. I’m 80% city/highway driving and opting for a quieter smooth ride. is 33 vs 35 a significant difference in highway ride? What about the extra 2 inches in height?

For what it's worth, I just came from talking with a Ford rep who had a 2-door Badlands at a nearby dealership for a couple hours to show their salesmen, and he said the extra height on a squatched badlands comes from just the tires. He said shocks and springs were the same.
Those guys are notoriously unreliable.
