The Bronco's seven-speed manual is a Getrag unit, part of the company's new family of six- and seven-speed longitudinal manuals that it calls MTI550. The 550 stands for its torque capacity in newton-meters, which equates to 406 lb-ft, although the company tells us that limit can go all the way up to 590 lb-ft, depending on application.

So this trans should be able to handle the torque of the 2.7 ecoboost
.... that's how I thought the discussion went when it was announced.

Besides the 35 inch tires, what would the Sasquatch package add to the Badlands trim package?

Another question I have is what's the point of the different GOAT modes if you have the 7-speed manual?

My ideal package might be: V6, 7speed, Sasquatch, with no GOAT modes (because why?)
Careful now, you'll get crucified for not wanting gadgets. Lol
They don't understand, it's not that I do not trust them.... I don't need them.
I can assure you (them) , I have been in through situations that will make their knees knock in basic Classic Broncos and CJ7's.
They may be nice and very functional, but if it costs me 10k, it ain't worth it.... I'll still be able to get there.

Do you think without carpet there will be a lot more noise? I am going to daily this thing, and would love rubber floors so I can clean out sand easily, but if its going to be louder Id rather deal with having to clean the car out
My FJ has rubberized floors and it’s really quite in there. It’s actually quieter than my M3 with carpet! Lol

Keep in mind 8” is what Jeep calls their “larger” screen
For something as off road capable as this thing looks to be, that is an amazing looking interior. Equal to a Rubicon and much better than anything Toyota has put out in the last 5 years. Chevy well... all I can do is laugh.

I just want to know that I can get that sweet two tone interior and the only thing my dad wants is a white top. We have seen both I just hope they become options no just concept ideas.

I have vinyl floors in my work F150, and if there's more noise I've never noticed.

I'm not sure if this advice also helps with your decision making, but if you plan on going off-roading the rubber floors are super clutch. When I had my second gen 4runner the Husky mats where not enough to keep the stench off the carpet after wheeling, especially when it rained.

So in addition to lack of noise you'd think you might get because there's no carpet, you also get the advantage of less stinky interior lol!

Your M3 must have been really fast! I had a regular M2 and sold it because it was too fast for my skills. The E46 hits the sweet spot in terms of handling and speed and I feel like I still have to learn more as a driver on track with this chassis.

i dont see it as complaining. Hopefully Ford is watching this feedback carefully and still open to making adjustments. None of us would be here if the intent was to just shitpost. Thats what Jeep forums are for.

i hope the reason ford isn't giving us concrete package information is because they want to see our reactions and what we want before finalizing them.

... in that case, ford please offer a white top on all trim levels especially base and black diamond please i am begging you
AGREE 100%! Kind of hoping it's a "WHITE PACK" -- like they do on Mustang and Ranger with BLACK PACK. Also hoping for a few more Heritage colors like a light blue or light tan. Hoping!

Carpet only on the Base, unfortunately.
How bout on the Wildtrak? Carpet is standard there. I'm gonna upgrade to Lux interior...any chance I can do that with rubber floor as an option, or am I dreaming?
