MUDHORN: My 2-Door 7speed NonSquatch Badlands Eruption Green Build

[The_Phew]

I'd imagine this has to do with gear ratio, without looking it up I assume the squatch package comes with a better ratio which normally translates to better mileage.

The Sasquatch package does not change the 4.7 gears on the 7mt Badlands, which is one reason why it has horrible value for $5k on that trim. That's alot of scratch for bigger tires+fenders, uglier wheels, and a tiny suspension lift. SAS is a good deal for lower trims, though.

But 35" tires definitely do not improve fuel economy over 33" tires, on this vehicle or any other. Ford must have tasked their 'rock stars' with the MPG estimates.

OP, how well did the original BL decal match the graphics?

I've got a more door EG BL on order and my wife really likes the Visco decals. I'd probably keep the BL decal if it matches color-wise. I'd probably skip the hood decal, too bad I'd have to buy the whole kit, but that's just me.

It matches almost perfectly. I just thought it pulled away from the graphic, and I didn’t like the BL graphic. I replaced it with a silver one.

This right here. I skipped the Squatch package after hearing what a joke it is for the money for my set up. I sold the takeoffs and got my own choice for shoes. Saved about $3500 all told.
