If there’s enough interest, I can get some t shirts and stickers printed up. I’ll probably do a small run regardless because I want one. Just shoot me a PM.

Will probably sell better if we could actually get a basemansquatch.

Levine verified ManSquatch awhile ago, Ford just said it would be a late availability. I'm chalking it up to a late change and B&P doesn't reflect it yet.

I think Levine actually already tweeted about the B&P getting updated at some point to reflect the ManSquatch. They’ve committed to it now.

His tweet was very vague as to when you would actually be able to order one. It certainly left doubts as to whether it will be an option in December.

True. I placed a second reservation through Granger when they announced ManSquatch would be delayed. That way I can get the October res deal since I’m going to have to wait anyway.

This was the biggest bummer for me. I was all in for Big Bend Cactus Grey hardtop manual add mid package and that's all I need. Then to switch it to the auto has changed everything I think I want. At that point - why wouldn't I just do 2k more and go Outer Banks?
Because the manual isnt offered AT ALL on the Outer Banks.

Im thinking of going Big Bend manual Sasquatch.

I wanted the Marine grade vinyl, and I wanted the Intelligent Access of the Mid package, hence BD-MID.

But I see value in the leather steering wheel and shift knob in the BB, and the privacy glass, so maybe thats my best bet if Ford doesnt correct this epic eff up.

These 2 paragraphs say 2 things:

1) Ford is underestimating the amount of buyers that really want the manual.

2) Ford is full of sh!t.If manual wasn’t that highly demanded, why amend the Sasquatch package?

give the Rowers the mid package!

It has been this way for years. Manufacturers usually only offer the manual transmission with the base package or the enthusiast option. Few people want the base package. Not as many can afford the enthusiast option. A number of people who would prefer a manual settle for an automatic to get the other options they want. Then the manufacturers say the sales data shows everyone wants an automatic.
