Looks good with the bigger tires .Was going to do a base 2 door squatch , but with gas prices now leaning towards a Bd or BB and adding rear locker .I drove a BD at Rancho Cordova SRV coarse , was impressed on what it would climb just with a rear locker , I think if I would have been two hard on the gas pedal I could have flipped it over backwards , the hill with a rut in front we went up was steeper than anything I will be going up , it climbed it like nothing , though did feel the skid plates scrub a little. I think the BD or BB with a rear locker , 2 " front and 1 " rear lift ,level kit and 33" tires will be hard to beat For the price . The Back Diamond had a real nice interior and the easy clean up vinyl would be a plus , would only be adding keypad on the door , comes with everything I would want , except do not care for wheel choices . I run two different sets of tires and rims on my 2015 supercrew f 150 4x4 , only put offroad 34 " tires on when I hit the mountains on hunting trips , will do the same with my Bronco for better gas mileage. Big Bend would be the cheapest adding a rear locker , overhead switches , keypad and floor liners .Skid plates are just under 700.00 , seat covers are cheap .BB build is 36,665 not including bash plates , BD build is 38,055 , would be buying new rims though , only option it gets is keypad , would be a no brainer for BB except the vynl interior and rubberized floor in the BD is the best interior .I use Top tier gas like Shell ,BP and Marathon. I keep away from discount Stations with lots of Alcohol.
