Nice how they still won't commit to a day in October for B&P. My guess is the 12th...of neverAnswering the Call of Enthusiasts, Bronco Brand Expands Sasquatch Package to Models with 7-Speed Manual Transmission
DEARBORN, Mich., Sept. 21, 2020 – Listening to reservation-holder feedback, Ford is expanding the availability of its high-performance off-road Sasquatch™package to all-new Bronco two- and four-door models with a class-first 7-speed manual transmission.
“The Bronco community spoke and we heard them,” said Mark Grueber, Ford Bronco consumer marketing manager. “Our team moved quickly to add Sasquatch with a manual transmission – another example of our focus on giving customers the best possible off-road vehicles and accessories that we can.”
The increased availability of the Sasquatch package also makes the Ford Bronco the only 4x4 with a 7-speed manual and 35-inch off-road tires in its class.
Sasquatch plus manual unlocks even more off-road capability
While other brands save their best hardware for premium series models, Bronco is making off-road capability a priority across every two- and four-door trim level with the available Sasquatch package.
Checking the Sasquatch box adds class-first 35-inch Goodyear® mud-terrain tires mounted to 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels, Dana™ front and rear electronic locking axles with 4.7:1 final drive ratio, and high-clearance suspension with a nearly two-inch wider track, position-sensitive Bilstein shocks and wider fender flares.
Sasquatch package will be available across the lineup, including Base, Big Bend™, Black Diamond™ Outer Banks™, and Badlands™. It is standard on Bronco Wildtrak™ and First Edition models, while the Badlands™ series with available Sasquatch package and standard semi-active hydraulic front stabilizer bar disconnect results in the ultimate Bronco rock crawler.
“Capability is always a priority, and pairing Sasquatch with a manual transmission and available advanced 4x4 system gives it a maximum crawl ratio of 94.75:1, providing even more off-road capability across the line-up,” said Dave Pericak, Ford icons global director.
The manual transmission with Sasquatch package is targeted to be available in late 2021.

I'll bet it might be more now, if we are no longer forced to take the $1600 automatic option.Do we know how much $$$ the Sasquatch adds to the price yet?
~$2,500 for the Badlands, since it already includes most of the Sasquatch add-ons.~$5k based on the pricing survey - should stay close to that but that may not hold
Looks like a CO 2dr with a white top.Is it me, or does this have a white top? ?
Since "by September" originally included through the end of September, wouldn't logic tell you that "in October" could be by the end of November?Bronco Build and price goes live in October

it wouldn't be funny. it would be bleepin awesome!!it would be funny if the extra time for the 2.3L mansquatch was for proofing even lower gearing, (> 4.7) to address the folks who just have to explore 37"+ tires.
They said that initially w/velocity blue too. They've backpedalled a bit. Pretty sure they are just cya for once orders go in and there are production delays and this same mob wants to know when deliveries are gonna start. I'm happy they reconsidered this one! I'm happy we got a manual trans at all! I'm ok w/waiting to get what I want...waited 25 years after all. MANSQUATCH FOR EVER!Availability: Late 2021.
So the mansquatch adds 6 months to build time......
I’m wondering if Ford “listened” to us enthusiasts, we can get them to add the V6 as an option too. Talk about a total build out!Answering the Call of Enthusiasts, Bronco Brand Expands Sasquatch Package to Models with 7-Speed Manual Transmission
