Of all the bizarre combination restrictions... Badlands can't have a hard top with roof rails if you get the 2.7 liter engine?

What?!
Okay now I can have the molded hard top and the 2.7 L engine, but it won't let me have the sound deadening headliner or the roof rails with the big engine.

I think there are still some quirks they're working out here.

Coming in right about $54,000 which is what I had estimated so ... yay for being dead on the money? =D

Looking good Ford!

Initially I thought I wanted the Outer Banks because of the focus on the creature comforts - but the more I look at it, the more I'm not a fan of the body colored flares, door handles, wheels and tires... so I was thinking about exploring other options and maybe even saving some money by not spending money on something I don't want...
I realized that the Black Diamond has upgraded bash plates, rock rails, auxilliary switches, and other things that make it more appealing... BUT
Then I realize that the Black Diamond and Big Bend don't have the signature LED lighting, don't have the High level instrument panel, no remote start option, no intelligent access.... then I realize that the Black Diamond isn't even available with carpeted floors...
oh, AND - the High and Lux packages aren't even available on the Big Bend/Black Diamond models...
Ugh .. trying to go through the list of options of what's included/excluded/optional and figuring out what I want, and what I'm willing to live without - is kinda difficult!! Looks like I might be back to looking at the OBX, but then paying extra for things like a new set of unpainted flares and decent set of wheels/tires ...

am I the only one?
Take what you think, and add $8000 to your build and you will arrive at the Bronco you thought of.

Pretty disappointed with the B&P Options. Reserved a Badlands because I wanted the rubberized floor. Plan all along was to add the Sasquatch pkg.

My disappointment is:
If I order the Sasquatch package, I was really hoping to have the Full Black Beadlock wheels. It looks like that is only on the Wildtrack Squatch. Does everyone else agree that the Beadlocks on the Badland is a Black wheel with a different color outer Bead (looks shiny like aluminum)? Wish Ford would reconsider allowing the full Black Wheel with the Black Bead on the Badlands. Really don't want to spend $60k on a vehicle and not like the wheels.

Also - Only one seat color for the Badlands - solid Black? Was hoping for a two tone option.

The only way I get the (two tone) Seats and (Solid Black 315) Wheels that I want is to lose the Rubberized floor. Bummed out. Hoping Ford will reconsider.
