Badlands with 33 or Sasquatch

[GToddC5]

Eloquent. Simple. Brilliant.

Truly beautiful in its execution.

Well done, sir.

After a quick search just now, sadly I wasn't first. It looks like many have said it before me. Great minds and all, lol.

Once again only commenting on a part of the picture. Auto non-Sas to Sas goes from 4.46 to 4.7 and is a relevant speaking point. Consider the context when making your replies. When discussing Sasquatch, assuming automatic transmission is prudent unless specifically future offerings like MY22 Manual Sasquatch is mentioned.

It’s funny, you rag on automatics with the slush box comments but call someone a tool when they tell you to enjoy your Chinese made manual. Can’t take the heat when it’s directed at you?!

Tell him that. He never said anything about a manual or auto. You know for a fact it’s made in China? No you don’t. headquartered in Germany with 24 locations worldwide. Funny you say that though. Take your feet out of your mouth Mr. All American responding from a CHINESE made product talking about a vehicle that has many parts made in China. Specifically anything to do with an ECU...have fun driving your Chinese made Bronco as well

I never told you to enjoy your Chinese made manual. Just mentioned your response to someone who told you too. I don’t really care where it’s made mainly because if it works it works, there are plenty of foreign made parts on all vehicles and I’m getting the automatic. No dog in that fight. Just amusing how you can’t take the heat as evidenced in many of your responses (this quoted one included).

Go fly a kite. Can’t take the heat? First you have to bring it. And you’re as cold as ice

Be right back I gotta go outside for a minute

The suspension changes as well. It is slightly higher.

Isn't the difference a reduction in travel between BL standard and BL Squatch? Rather than more lift?

I'm old but don't think I missed that set of detail.

Nothing definitive, but there’s significant evidence that Sas is indeed, 10mm higher than BL

Ok. I'll not jump off the anger bridge...yet.

I wrestled with this like most people. I was all over Black Diamond but because I couldn't confirm if a standard BD could take a 285 upgrade without modification I went with Badlands. I was set on 33's but may upgrade to 34's. That's good enough for me. So I ordered a 2-door Badlands Rapid Red, 2.7 base tires with the High Package.

@Ponyup, glad you are not in Chicago. I ordered a 2-door Badlands in Rapid Red, 2.3 MT, but I'm going to with the mod top.

People!!!

polls are fun!!

many way, Bad Lands with 33s I think is THE Look.
Sas I do like... on the B&P I think it looks sick, oddly better on the black base than the WT

but the pics of real shots they look like those absurd balloon tires that old Polaris and Suzuki 125cc atvs had that allegedly would float in water.

plus, there’s a weird resurgence of the “yee yee” crowd we need to keep it to the Mello yello nascar crowd.

C'mon man! Those Marlborough roads are brutal, I need that contact patch!

I went SAS on my 4 door Badlands but I’m also planning on a lift and 37s when my 35s wear out. And yes, it will be a DD. Not too worried about fuel economy

Hey gang! Per usual I am late to the party on this thread. First off... huge shoutout to @ZackDanger for always providing great/detailed responses. True man of the people.

@North7 and I have actually discussed this at length as well. One thing I haven’t seen touched on here is the aftermarket tires available in 33 vs 35 sizes. 35s will get you the looks but if you think you’d prefer a slightly cushier ride then the load ratings in the 33” range are much more favorable.

Also, to those of you who are like me who are still thinking of going Sasquatch but prefer the carbonized grey beauty ring on the optional BL wheels....

If I go Sasquatch I’ll have this waiting for me before I pick up my ride from the dealer. I’ll make sure to post my results to the forums.
