ahhh, don't tell me that! Haha. Sasquatch with the BL is way above my price point. Maybe aftermarket or something, but not on initial purchase.
Dude... if you're a 4 door guy, BD +'squatch.

Cuz if it's "kids" & they throw up in your car.... washout interior haha

I was originally leaning BD, but really want the 12" screen, front sensors, and LED lamps

that's the benefit for me going to BL is I get the 2.7L since it is practically the same as getting just the automatic, so might as well.

That is true on the 35's. What color are you getting? I was thinking area 51 or cactus, but with the orange stitching I don't know.
I'm going for BL in 4-door in either one of those 2 colors, keep waffling back and forth. Was originally all-in on A51 but the more I see the cactus the more it grows on me. Really wish we could see these colors in person instead of just on the 'net. BTW, guess I'm in the minority, I actually *like* the orange interior accents in the BL.

Will I be able to upgrade to the 12” screen in the aftermarket? If so, BD Sasquatch is the best package around.

Same. Want the 12” screen in the worst way so it’s BL for now. I thought Wildtrack could be a game changer, but it fell flat with B&P. Now we know why the release videos were pushing BL. It’s simply the best. Better than all the rest.

For me I would do BD with Sasquatch all day vs badlands without Sasquatch.

I like the look of it much better and the gearing with the Sasquatch will be important to me down the road as I will eventually add a ~1.5 inch lift and 37’s.

The sway bar disconnect is a nice feature, but the aftermarket will have a quick disconnect for cheap that you could undo at the start of a trail and connect back before getting back on the road.

I also like the BD interior better. Lighter color vinyl seats and I like the blue accents over orange.
but that’s clearly personal preference.

Totally with you on the interior coloring. I much prefer the blue than the orange.

I think if the 12” screen and front sensors can be done aftermarket, I’ll likely go BD with Sasquatch.

Does anyone know if the 12” can be done aftermarket?

Doubtful. If so, it will be very expensive and you would have to replace part of the dashboard in order to fit a bigger screen. If the dash is all one piece, that would make it even more cost prohibitive. Probably void the warranty too.

Would love to get everyone's opinion here after the build and price came out. Essentially, I am debating between a Black Diamond with Sasquatch (looks amazing) or the BL without. The BL adds the high package I prefer (12" screen, front sensors, etc.) but lose the sasquatch due to cost and hate the orange stitching.

Not sure if any of the high package items I want can be added after-market.

Anyways, clearly I'm conflicted and would love some of your thoughts!
I spent the better half of the morning building just about all of them. I keep going back to my original the BL, it checks all the boxes and then some. I don't want a MT so by adding the 2.7L you get the 10 speed tranny for $300.00. Plus I have all the tech and sensors on my Lariat Ranger and want them on the Bronco too.

Second would be the BD but I don't like that you can't get the High package. But by adding the Mid package you get the 10 speed for $0 so this is still high on my list too. I going to get a MY22 so I'll still have time to drive myself crazy deciding. ?
