BB SAS MID PACKAGE 2.3 VS BASE SAS 2.7

[LOSTXGOLD]

Is there anyone else struggling with this dilemma?

Either I get the BaseSquatch w/ the 2.7, or I get the BB w/ Mid package + the Sasquatch.

Is anyone else on the fence about this? I keep on asking myself which one I would need/want. This is a hard decision & I don’t want to bug the kind people @ Granger with multiple changes

My order w/VIN is

4Dr Base 2.7L Sasquatch, MIC, Aux - $43, 270

4Dr BB 2.3 Squatch, MIC, Aux is $47,145

I can't imagine spending $4000 more AND getting the small engine! But that's me...

I changed my order from a 4Dr BD, 2.7, Squatch, Mid package to a 4Dr BaseSquatch, 2.7 and I'm pretty excited about it. I sat down and went over each item of the Mid package and the only thing I might miss is the 'Intelligent Access with Lock/Unlock'. Everything else I don't need or won't use. I looked at the BB too, but figured without the Mid package all I'd be paying for is an extra GOAT mode and a grab handle.

Nope. Decision was easy. 2.7 w/ Sasquatch

I’d honestly go with the basic creature comforts of the big bend over 30Hp in a rig like this.

Yeah, that’s where I’m thinking, is it worth the extra $4000, to get the mid package? I mean the only thing that gets me, is spending over $40,000 and not getting mid package items, on a vehicle in 2021.

When you’re paying $40K + at least getting mid package items seems like the way to go, or I could just save up another $1.8K to put down.

2-door Basesquatch 2.7, that’s how I’m rolling.

This is such a generalized question without the specifics to make an informed decision. If you are DD it downtown on 75, maybe the creature comforts with the 2.3 may be better. Either way, in that traffic opt for the automatic. The remote starting system, in my humble opinion, will be more than worth it come July; leaving work on a 110 degree day.

So like many here, I had to decide first what were the things that I "had" to have and what was I willing to pay for them. I wasn't willing to go without the rear locker or the larger motor, I also currently do a fair bit of driving and really wanted adaptive cruise control. I was willing to sacrifice the Sasquatch package in order to have better mileage and comfort on the highway while retaining 85-90% of the off-road capability.

If you aren't hard core off-roading it, then go for the comfort 100% - I ended up at $47,953 for the Outer Banks Lux 2D 2.7 advanced 4x4 w/ the 4.27 rear locker. The Sasquatch package wasn't worth the extra 4k because I don't off-road that extreme.

Otherwise, if this was my exclusive off-road rig, I would have been in for the 2D 2.7 Base model with the Sasquatch.

I'm exactly like you. The only thing of interest in the MID package for me is Intelligent Access which I've had on my Focus ST the last 7 years. Not at all worth the upgrade for that! My wife agrees

4Dr Base 2.7L Squatch, MIC, Aux V.B.

Stick or auto? With a stick, you'll be thrilled to death with 2.3. Auto can maybe go either way...
