Pics & thoughts of Antimatter Blue Bronco Black Diamond Sasquatch @ Koon's Falls Church Virginia

[R11]

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.

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.

So I guess front windshield replacement will have to be OEM in order to get that Bronco detail? Not sure safelite would have that in stock.

Can confirm Safelite carries the mustang one with the horse on it, so I bet they will.

Thank you for all the pics, at the last minute I switched from Area51 to antimatter blue. I’m glad I did Bc this color is awesome! I went to my local Ford dealer and found a f250 in antimatter on a sunny day parked right next to an area51 sport and that helped with the switch. Did you by chance happen to notice how wide the back center seat was?

No. This morning I realized I did not sit in the middle. I suppose I could follow them to Fairfax for their appearance today...

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 sat in a 4-door back seat yesterday and the middle is pretty narrow. I’m also not a small person and barely fit (didn’t, really, if the top was on) in the other part of the seat, so my fit is going to be much different than a kid’s.
