I would say that if youāre a complete newbie to off-roading and over-landing, but WANT to do both of those things, SAS is a great deal. If youāre a newbie, the SAS package gives you everything you need, under warranty, for cheaper than you will do after-market.Thankfully I will be in a position to where I will be able to afford one. Sad to say though but I'm a huge fan of the four door, could never come to like the look of the 2 door, even on the wranglers. In terms of the base four door+Sas, it seems like there's a mix reaction to it. Some people have said it's a great deal while others say it's something you don't necessarily need. Since I'm a complete noobie to off roading/overlanding would it just be a safer bet to get the sasquatch for the readiness or could I get away with getting a higher trim but no sasquatch? I find it hard to spend 5k on an addition when I could use that towards other conveniences. I was looking at the base, big bend, black diamond and outerbanks. Really like the look of the outerbanks but also digging the black diamond. As of now I'm leaning towards the black diamond, would go with the green color for sure. What're your thoughts on the trims I mentioned? I know you said I could go base+Sas and get a similar performance as the other trims but is that worth the cost of some of the conveniences those other trims would offer? Apologies for the lengthy question.
Eruption Green is awesome. I almost switched from Velocity Blue to EG as I had a dark green Eddie Bauer Bronco with a roast type interior in college and the nostalgia was strong. Iām 51 and able to afford exactly the Bronco I wanted. Planned on a Wildtrak, but after some Wildtrak-only options got axed, quickly realized my dream Bronco was an OBX trim in Velocity Blue with roast cloth seats (Iām in Arizona and almost always have top and doors off and MGV or leather will burn you!), optioned up to Wildtrak specs with SAS, aux switches, modular bumper and bash plates. Dont worry about GOAT modes between trims, as itās not difficult to add all the modes with FORSCAN. This plus a few more small options, and the high package which got me the beautiful big screen and lots of other tech I wanted, landed me at around $53k plus taxes. Turned in a 4Runner for the price I originally paid for it, so only had to come up with around $20k.
If you want marine grade vinyl seats and high package isnāt a need, Iād look at the Black Diamond. With SAS if you want it to look and act more aggressive. If you donāt want MGV and can truly afford it, I think the Eruption Green OBXās Iāve seen with roast cloth or leather interior and bronze dash make one of the best looking Broncos. Change the wheels and interior blue accents to bronze and they
Hereās my VB OBX 4 door with SAS and roast cloth:
