On the First Edition Specs page its lists "10-Speed Automatic/7-Speed Manual Transmission" for both the 2 door and 4 door.

I've seen a lot of people post that they wanted a Sasquatch Package vehicle with a manual transmission. However, it appears that it is an automatic only package. I hadn't read this before, so I am just passing it on, equally as disappointed as others.

Sasquatch package is available on every model, including the base

So does this mean the Sasquatch package isn't included on the 2 door, manual, First Edition?

That was what was so awesome about the Sasquatch you don’t have to mess around with any of that stuff. Regearing, adding lockers, shocks, lift kits (especially IFS)are so much easier from the factory. Not to mention the M210 axle vs the m190 that is stock on most trims without Sasquatch.
100% agree. would be nice to have it all done and ready to go on delivery not to mention no doubts about warranty. There was a price point in my head for that convenience...now I can just move on.

The Badlands with the 2.3L and the 7MT has a 6.588:1 crawler gear, 3.06:1 low gear, and 4.70 axle. That makes for a 94.75:1 crawl ratio.
You're right, I went back and looked, I was remembering the taller gears on the auto for the badlands. Can you elaborate on the issues that popped up in testing?

FE isn’t manual because of the V6 and now perhaps because of the Sasquatch too :(

I'm going to guess that without a lot of miles of rough testing they are unwilling to put a as of yet unproven trans where it could fail.
As the 7 speed gains reputation hopefully it will go in all applications

If true I am cancelling my order. That was the best part of Sasquatch is getting it with no other options... I don’t want to pay for the auto if I don’t have to. And I want the manual with 35’s.
If i’m going auto, it’s for the 2.7.... 2.7,auto, sasquatch will be a $9,000 option like tremor for f250(start with 6.2 f250). So much for reasonably priced.
