man-squatch delay

[Squatch]

As long as the calendar year is 2021 in the western hemisphere when I receive my Bronco, I'll be fine.

I was going with the Badlands due to the previous lack of Man-Squatch and thought the announcement might downgrade some, but I think I'm still getting a Badlands Man-Squatch.

i couldnt comprehend the chart comparison between badlands and sasquatch.

i understand badlands has swaybar disconnect and sasquatch does not. 33 inch tires and no beadlock wheels.

sasquatch has beadlock wheels and 35inch tires and a slight lift to accommodate the larger tires

am i missing any other big differences?

ignoring differences created by auto trans since we are talking about manual vs manual

There's that too!!! My trade in will be paid off Dec 2021!!! LOL

Yeah, our GTI will be paid off in April of 2022 so if our Base Mansquatch isn’t ready until late 2021, that will leave only about half a year of two car payments. Just hoping we have it by December, in time for winter so we can play in the snow.

The main difference is the disconnect.

I suspect that there isn't a real lift, but more of an extended bump stop to keep the tires from rubbing on the flares or maybe even the body.

Aside from what that miniscule difference may be, the suspensions are identical. There's no chance Ford is swapping major components like shocks or springs from Badlands to Sasquatch. That would be completely moronic and a needles loss of production efficiency.

I'm mostly getting the Sasquatch on my Badlands because of the name and the novelty of 35s from the factory. If I were looking at any lower trims, I would have a ton of other reasons to get the Sasquatch package. You can't beat the engineering and warrantee of the 'Squatch by going aftermarket.

my question is whether I can still get the performance tune with the Mansquatch?

why wouldnt you be able to?

 

[Bmadda]

I don't for one second understand WHY there would be any delay? Can't order enough 35s? They said there is only like 6 of us that wanted this. 6x5=30. they cant make 30 more tires? I'd prefer BFGs anyway!

It’s the time required to get the 2.7L certified with the 7mt transmission

I can wait for the mansquatch but im concerned about the chance of delay for the squatchzilla option.
