I'm young, so I have time to wait. More time to save for the down payment. Plus MY22 will fix a lot of MY21's issues. And will have more accessories/options availability.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't going to take that extra time to patiently cross shop. Just today I curiously perused some articles about the 4xe.
As a first day reservation, I'm on the fence. Depending on the day, I'm either waiting or have talked myself out of it. As it is going to be on a BL, I'm leaning towards going with the optional wheels and tires, and adding a mild lift with the wider fender flares if needed. If the BL mansquatch is still $2500 as on the automatic Squatch, it makes my decision super easy. No way... Ford continues to talk me into spending less and less on this vehicle.
I’m not going to bash Ford for it since they acquiesced on man squatch, but being naive on the process, I don’t understand why man squatch would have to be late availability. I guess it is what it is.
