I had a 2 DR BL with Sas/Tow/Mid/2.7 and roof rails. With a 10/30 reservation, I wasn't expecting mine this year. Switched to a 4 DR Base with Sas/Aux/2.7 and modular bumper. Crossing my fingers! If nothing in the next month, I'll have the '22 build and price to consider.

I couldn't justify the general wait or the price tag for the stabilizer bar disconnect. An extra 10,000 for something I may never use wasn't sitting well with me. I also don't necessarily want to be in a teetering situation with my Bronco.

Signature headlights: I'll get a pair later.

Washout floors: always thought they're were a little gimmicky.

MGV and heated seats: I can live without them.

MOLLE panels: GreyMan solutions.

Remote start: phone app.

Ambiet lighting: hook up a system to an Aux switch.

Tow package: get it after delivery.

Hardtop: I'll hold out for a nice fastback.

Any differences I'm missing just weren't too important to me.

Same reasons I went with the base except I'm waiting for the 2 door.

I switched from Big Bend to Base for similar reasons. If I had gotten a build earlier in the year I’d be happy with what I got, but the longer we wait the more my wheels in my mind keep turning.

Not to sound rude but why get SAS if you’re trying to save $ and you don’t plan to off-road much from the sound of it. Just for the 34.4” tires? I’m confused

You're good. I don't see myself doing enough rock crawling to justify it. For the trails, hills, and riverbed I'll be in, it just won't be needed.

That one day you don't get stuck, you'll be glad you got the SAS and lockers...That is priceless...
