Still surprised the rubber floor and drain plugs aren't standard...

YEP-They could pitch it as best way to go as a base option and upsell from there. They definitely missed the boat.

I am actually incredibly let down that Cyber Orange is not available on base models. I shouldn't be surprised because Ford likes to bull this b.s with everything they launch, you can't get X without the Y & Z package, you can only have A if B is equipped.. everything ends up totaling out to the price of one of the mid-trims once everything is all said and done. I get it that they want to make more money and limit the amount of SKUs / variants to simplify things, but it's a bummer. I don't wanna have to get the Sasquatch package to choose Cyber Orange because I don't need it.

That being said, I am getting a base model, because it has everything my Explorer doesn't, and if I do want something I'll go aftermarket. Two-door, 2.3L / 7-speed, likely in Rapid Red or Antimatter Blue.

2 dr base, sasquatch, 1st color choice is velocity blue, second is cactus grey.
is this cactus grey?

if so, my 1st colo choice is actually cactus grey

Wait according to the exterior color chart, Cactus Grey isn't optionable on a Base Bronco....

These bean counters are very very sharp...I am getting 2 dr base....my want was race red to match my F150 RCSB....but nope ...not avaliable on base.....BUT.....rapid red can be had....and that color is a $700 upcharge on the 150....go figure....so if I have to have race red....$5k more next model....will keep my $5k and maybe just settle for OJ white.....

**** velocity blue i guess... or go up to black diamond. then you get drain holes, marine grade seats, and still a pretty good deal

Both of my JP's have(had) drain holes. I am hoping there is some sort of drainage or I may have to get handy with a hole saw and the proper sized plugs.

No need to rip them off I believe they are easily removed like the doors Edmunds utube I saw him say about.

Yep, He discusses this cool feature at about the 8:10 minute mark. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?...79B9694CB39627E62DE579B&view=detail&FORM=VIRE

All this squatchy talk ......... I noticed it says high clearance suspension ???????? What is this ????

Ford needs to be a little clearer on this, maybe pics of the different suspension. Not just say high clearance. What is different from the suspension on a non squatch.

I'm leaning towards a base 2dr and 7sp manual. I've never owned a 4x4 before. Any idea how capable/incapable the base will be (obviously no hardcore offroad) without Sasquatch package?

 

[WillisC’onnors]

I hear(read) a lot of that already!!! LOL

When I got the email from my dealer I immediately wrote back and asked ?

No pricing yet.

Carpet should only be paired with the leather. Everything else should be rubber or vinyl floors. I hope carpet delete is an option for the base.
