I didn't see any mention of the sasquatch package put on this 2 door, but it has the manual and the bigger wheels. So I guess it could be a possibility? Apologizes if this has already been brought up.

I mean I would be but I'm not about to pay for a Bronco that sounds like a turbo Honda Civic hence why I wanted the Turbo V6 with the manual but I want the squatch package as well and like I said if they change all of that and I can get the manual V6 with the squatch then I'm all in on the base 4 door.I am content either way. Manual 4 cylinder or auto V6.
Manual V6 won’t happen.I mean I would be but I'm not about to pay for a Bronco that sounds like a turbo Honda Civic hence why I wanted the Turbo V6 with the manual but I want the squatch package as well and like I said if they change all of that and I can get the manual V6 with the squatch then I'm all in on the base 4 door.
Well that kinda sucks. I mean I'm hopeful it'll change.Manual V6 won’t happen.
Not being a mustang guy, is this trans issue on GTs only or are all 6spds having problems?Not to be negative here, but Ford's debacle with the manual trans on the Mustang is well-documented. Yes, I know the Getrag unit in the new Bronco isn't the same as in the Mustang, but my understanding is it's a variant of the unit used in the Mustang (please correct me if I'm wrong). That said, I don't want to have the same problems Mustang owners are now furiously fighting (suing) Ford over. I really want a base 2-dr manual with Sasquatch (and in Cyber Orange...c'mon Ford, really?!?) but am worried I'll have reliability problems with the manual. I hope Ford offers an excellent warranty on the manual powertrain.
My 18 mustang gt manual has no issues.Not being a mustang guy, is this trans issue on GTs only or are all 6spds having problems?
The 2.3 is a good engine and has plenty of power for off roading. Ford will release a tuner for the 2.3 just as they did for the Mustang. Many with stage 3 getting 332hp and 400 torque out of it.All the enthusiasts that I know were giddy when we learned about the 7 speed. And we all expected it to be available with the V6. Gee, why would Ford go to the trouble of making a new trans that would only work with one powerplant in one truck? That makes no sense, so we were excited about the 2.7-7speed. Please Ford, add the 7 speed to the 2.7. Most enthusiasts who want to shift it themselves want the 2.7. Sell this combo, and I bet you'll sell a lot more of these than the 2.3 - 7 speed.
