As a 6 ft tall person on the sasquatch, did you have to 'hop up' to get in or was it kinda 'level'?

Thx.

Antimatter Blue is the New Black.
If you see blue or even purple, then I win, because it makes it a super deluxe color.
If you think it looks like black, then I still win, because I love Black and I can call all you color blind.

You cannot deny me the awesomeness of Antimatter Blue.

Bummer, they got rid of the Bronco bolts on the little made in Michigan plaque, probably means they glued down now as well. Be more work to customize a different plaque if so.

AMB would be on the top of my list if I did not live in the brushy PNW. I am not keen on my new truck looking like my pinsteiped black Land Rover in a few months.

I am just curious is all. I saw them I’m okc but the four door was on display only. I have three kids and was just wondering is all.
I went and saw them again today, made sure to sit in that spot. Middle seat is not big enough for me if there are two other adults in the back as well, but I can't say I'm too shocked by that!

Really nice pics and like the way you put the cap in there for size comparison. Something tells me you may have taken some crime scene 🧐 pics at one time or another. Excellent idea!

I really like the AMB, but often it fooled me when walking around the car lot and mistook it for black. Once I see enough of them on the road I hope I don’t regret the color I picked for my Badlands. You are my height and happy to see you included that for your notes.
👍
Not crime scenes, just lots of photos lol.

Have been appreciating everyone's intrepid photojournalism, so here are a few more, with some quick thoughts for what they're worth.

  1. Bronco people are cool: fellow reservation-order-tire-kickers and the show team alike.
  2. Overall, having examined every photo and video like a forensic investigator at this point, I wasn't sure I could want one more than I did, but now I guess I do.
  3. I had switched to antimatter blue for a while, but I see purple in it in some light, so I went back to carbonized grey. This AMB Black Diamond looked WAY more blue than a Mustang I see in my neighborhood, so maybe it's really different paint, or just that it was an overcast day yesterday, and these Broncos were under an overhanging roof. These photos show a range of shades in different lighting conditions, even in the same pic in some instances. Towards the beginning it's all natural light, then someone at the dealership turned on the lights under the roof (but I didn't order these pics after the upload jumbled them chronologically). My Nats hat is pretty navy blue for reference, though can show up a little grayish - mostly I included for size reference on the wheel and tire combo.
  4. Is Sasquatch overkill? Maybe. After seeing how beastly it looks as a factory production vehicle (and how it really makes the 4 door look...right), am I removing it from my order? Hell no.
  5. It was so gloriously easy to get underneath, should have taken better pics, but I didn't want to be on the ground, potentially blocking people from getting in and out of the vehicle for fear of stepping on me!
  6. I'm 6'0 ~210, felt comfortable and could easily see myself driving long distance road trip, and the backseat is comfortable a well. (The boring pic of the roofline was an attempt to capture my eye-level for reference.)
  7. As much as I agree with some that the 2 door proportions are superior, given my plans to take people west in it, just have to have the interior space. And the 4 door proportions look much better in person, perhaps due to the overall size being tough to gauge in pics.
  8. The other model was the manual badlands (very cool as well), but since I am going Sasquatch (base - what a deal), I was focused on this one.

Hopefully, you can take good care of the paint and not see a butt-ton of swirls.

I was also at Koons yesterday. I’ve got a manual Badlands on order, so I focused on that one. Seating position and shifter felt good. One of the Bronco reps there yesterday told me the manual is super fun to drive and that it’s not held back by the 2.3L though the 2.7L would be great with a stick if it’s ever offered that way.

Is that Iconic Silver or Carb Grey?

People keep saying "well AMB is going to show all the scratches, etc. So we should just get an ugly color to avoid that? Just saying....
