Does anyone know the Weight Difference between 2.7 Auto and 2.3 Manual? I only ask because I will be pulling my Bronco with my RV and I am already close to the Max towing Cap.
Found it. Even though these are just projections. If I am getting the 2-door, is this stating that its about 800 more for the auto?

Still fun to see people get into my Escape to move it then realize there is an extra pedal on the floor and get out and give me the “I can’t drive a stick” look.

Based on the first set of numbers, it reads 4319 (2.3 Manual) to 4491 for (2.7 Auto)
Got it. Thanks!

Pair that 2.7 with an American made manual and they can take my money.

Until then, it's 2.7 auto 10 speed on the BaseSquatch.

The manual will be slower than the V6 auto. The auto/V6 combo is an amazing value. The manual will get old in traffic. These are facts.

I'm still getting the manual.

For the life of me, I just can't figure out how to drive an auto properly.

I've been driving almost exclusively manuals for the last 10 years. 3 years dealing with terrible Oahu traffic up a mountain.

Manual has never gotten old to me.

Crawl gear sounds perfect for traffic ....

If you are on the fence just remember you can always buy an auto in the future if you wanted to but there is no guarantee you will be able to buy a manual bronco in the next few years so if you go auto and hate it you my be out of luck on finding a manual.

ALL IN with Manual!!! You guys just reminded me why I wanted Manual in the first place.
Top Five Reason to go Manual:

1. FUN!!! Auto are boring.. Great Tech but little driver input vs. Manual..
2. People will not want to drive the car because they cannot drive stick.. No worries!!
3. IT’s A BRONCO!!
4. Can’t use the phone and drive at the same time. SAFTY FIRST
5. Focus on the road more and enjoy every ride like its my last!!

Thanks!!
