Yeah - my scale for "huge" in this case is "current-gen 4Runner" since I'm comparing it to two relatively small 90's SUVs (ZJ and SWB Pajero). I guess if it's FJ Cruiser/4Runner sized that won't be TOO bad. Even though there are much larger vehicles out there, it doesn't change that they're big on their own, ya know what I mean?
2door might be similar to an FJ, 4door would be closer to 4runner. (height being a separate issue, the bronco is a bit taller). I wheel my Xterra in Colorado where many trails are pretty tight w/ rocks or trees very close and it hasnt been an issue. I think the bronco will be similar.

Nobody should be putting steps on an offroading vehicle, they will just get smashed and end up also damaging the body when they break.
Maybe that door with the hole in it is reverse lambo door. It swings out and down then put your foot in the hole and hop up! Talk about chick magnet.

Hard to judge from the pics, but I can assure you 35" tires are huge! Kind of surprised everyone is jumping on the Sasquatch package. 35" tires look great and perform well off-road, but in every other setting they're a hassle. Terrible on-road manners, loud as hell, poor fuel efficiency, soft sidewalls don't handle well, etc. Would be interesting to do a poll and see how many users with Sasquatch package reservations have actually driven a 35" tire on-road.

If I had to guess, not many.

It seems like in the pic the smaller you are the more ridiculous it looks as well.

I think your a bit outdated on those thoughts.
I daily drive 37”s comfortable, they’re KO2s so they are quiet, they handle well going through mountain roads, I regeared my truck and gained nearly 3MPG over stock KO 315/70r17 tires.
I'm going to roll with 37s so thanks for the update.

I wonder how good visibility is going to be over the hood. May need to ban my wife from driving it now.

As part of the neglected minority, people over 6ft tall, I'm very happy to see this. It might make some people shy away from taking the doors off, though...looking at you Kevin Hart. (look up his bit about jumping oht of a truck)
That is what steps are for. I am 5' tall and I drove an F250 4x4 with a 2" lift. I just had a step and a grab bar, no biggie.

I’m 6’2” and just went out to stand next to my 37s.

Either this man is very short or those are bigger than 37s, I still have 3-4 inches from top of tire to my waist.
I think the folks in the post are munchkins.
