Driving at speed with 35" tires.

Dammit, you're right. Now I need to reconsider the four door version.

don't. go 2dr. man, you can drive a 2dr on 44s with 15" rims on the interstate at 70 all day long. it really is not bad as long as you take care of bushings and bearings.

What is it like driving at 55+ mph on 35" option tires as compared to 3 3 " all terrain tires?

Braking ability will be reduced as will gas mileage and acceleration.

Wouldn't consider acceleration & mpg a big issue if going with the 2.7 though being the ecoboost. Not sure about the bronco brakes but on my f150, I upgraded to powerstop and it was noght & say difference.

My f150 with 6” lift, 35” MT (true mud terrains) and the 3.5EB gets better mpg (18.1mpg) than my wife’s grand cherokee with 32.5” AT tires and the 3.6 while in “aerodynamic” mode (16.9mpg). I drive 70-75mph in the truck and 65-70mph in her grand cherokee.

I never notice bigger tires at highway speeds , they ride fine with regular At's.....where i have noticed differences between 33's and 35's , is at slower speeds, driving around town. Nothing big enough not to get them ( the bigger tires), but it drives differently.

I like 33's.

The 2.7L will definitely help with acceleration (mpg??), but won't do anything for braking. I wouldn't get Sasquatch 35s without the 2.7, but that's me. Your F150 mileage sounds good.
