How far back are you sitting that you feel the B pillar?
Back far enough to work the clutch properly. Also, the 4-door front door is so short, you can't comfortably use the window-sil as an armrest. Because, again, the B-pillar jabs your arm.

Maybe I'm just used to long doors because my last three cars were Mustangs.

Ah OK, thanks for explaining. Mine is an auto, so I haven't had the experience of needing more room to clutch. Since the Bronco is such an enthusiast-oriented vehicle, you'd think Ford would give the die-hard stick shift folks more consideration. But then again, they weren't even originally offering SAS w/ manual until enough people complained that was a slap in the face to the off road community

I regret not changing my order to a 2 door as soon as I bought my wife's black diamond. I just wasn't sure she would be happy with the lower trim level than the badlands we ordered.So now we have two 4 doors. But over all I am really happy with both of them. I agree the 2 door is more traditional ( I have two early Broncos a 67 and a 72 and had a 96 full size). I really like the look of the 2 door but we still needed a 4 door for kids. Both models have there place. I may order a 2 door black diamond sas and hope I get it in a year or so and trade my bad lands for it but the badlands is really nice time will tell.

No, 4-door was the best choice, I have 2-door cars, I need something with more room.

We love our 2 door Sasquatch, no regrets as far as size. Wish it had the bigger gas tank of the 4 door. I rarely drive it and I prefer to not drive it to work as I need to gas it up every 2 days LOL with my long commute. My VW Jetta gets 600 plus miles to a tank so it's just way more convenient and gets over 50 MPG.

Has anyone with a two-door wish they purchased a four-door? And has anyone with a four-door wish the bought the two-door instead?

Just curious.
No regrets for my 2 door after almost a year. If I need more room for people or stuff I just pull out my F250.

2 door Badlands…l realize is a bit more limited in cargo space than the 4 door but I needed a 2 door Manual for the Early Bronco heritage. I like the look better and it was cheaper than a 4 door. I have a hitch mount cargo rack if needed and have fit four 200+ lb dudes and fishing gear and hit the beach.

The blue with the black wheels looks great.

thanks! My Subaru also Blue on black. I just like the combo. Some people hate back wheels. Low maintenance…They look the same dirty or clean😀

4-door base sasquatch. Zero regrets. I have filled the Bronco a couple of trips, needed to seat 4 or 5 comfortably a few times and a 2-door wouldn’t have worked for me. I also prefer the look of the 4-door with the big tires.

I changed from a two door Sasquatch to a four door non Sasquatch and made the best choice for myself.

The back seats are easier to get into and there is what seems to be much more room..

I saw a 4-Door Wildtrak yesterday and it looked really good. I have a WT (2-door) on order. As much as I like the 4-door, I am still leaning two-door.... well, don't really have a choice.... but I still think the two-door looks better and has better proportions. In any event, will all of the negativity surrounded the couple of the issues with the Bronco (can't please everybody) I think it's awesome that BOTH models look amazing. Can't wait!

No way, no how would I ever consider the 4 door. I get that so many people like/need all that, but my Bronco LOOKS like what I always knew a Bronco should look like. I think it’s a tragedy that the specialty models only come in a 4 door. They will phase out the 2 door in a couple of years - like they did with the Tahoe/Yukon in the 90’s. Then I will have a truly unique Bronco. I’m glad you’re happy with your bus length, station wagon shaped Bronco, but I will NEVER regret getting MY Bronco.
Agreed! I think Ford will phase out the 2 door, just like they stopped making the 2 door Thunderbird. I wish they’d bring back the Retro Bird.
