Was really pressed for time today so sorry for the lack photos. I ordered a base Sasquatch but am considering a black diamond Sasquatch because Mid would be nice but not a requirement since this is going to be a toy. Wish there would of been one with cloth so I could see it in comparison to the mgv but oh well. That being said, this is what I took away from my brief encounter.
1. It can’t be emphasized enough, these look significantly bigger in person than they do in pictures. I tried to get pics that showed this and still feel like I failed. Even the 33”s on the badlands looked big. I’m 5’9 and needed a little hop to get into the badlands and needed to climb into the black diamond.
2. Tbh, I was concerned about both looks and quality of the interior. I’m happy to say that I’m no longer worried though. It’s not on par with my 2007 Lexus gx470 as far as panel gap and solidness but I’m not sure it’s supposed to be. It just feels like it’s supposed to get dirty and wet and be ok with it. Everything is either easy to wipe nothing fancy molded plastic or rubber which makes sense. Was actually relieved after sitting in it.
3. The mgv is really nice and seemed to be extremely comfortable for the short time I sat in them. Plenty of room front and rear for me. A guy sitting in the front seat who was 6’2 had the front seat adjusted for him and I had tons of leg room in the back. Width wise it’s fine but not huge. I forgot to see if the seat reclined but was definitely a comfortable seating position.
4. Cargo. It’s fine but seems smaller than I expected for such a large vehicle. My frame of reference on cargo are the gx and a suburban so my cargo reference might be skewed. The cubby under the cargo area is tiny so not sure what size shoes Jordan was talking about on his bronco nation video about putting a pair of muddy boots in there. My picture has a pair of what looked to be women’s mittens as reference.
5. Was in a rush and forgot my camera so picture quality is subpar but Antimatter really is beautiful in person. Not sure I have the patience it would require to keep it clean but I really do love the way it looks. Early on I was into Iconic silver but wasn’t impressed as I saw photos coming out. Seeing it in person, it is definitely a nice shade on the bronco and goes great with the badlands yellow badge and stitching but just not for me.
In closing I’m super happy I made time to go and see them and I’m even more excited than I was before to get mine.
