Hard to believe.I've seen some reference a manual after market solution that is under $100.
the badsquatch costs substantially moreAny reason you wouldn’t just get a Badlands Sasquatch with upgraded 2.7L? As the common saying goes on this forum, “You can make a Badlands a Wildtrak, but you can’t make a Wildtrak a Badlands.”
But you get more trail useful addons such as rock rails , under armor, steel bumpers, rock crawl mode. Plus a more outdoor friendly interior.the badsquatch costs substantially more
I gotta see the B&P before i decide what i want, but i really had my heart set on the badlands at first just because of the sway bar dc.But you get more trail useful addons such as rock rails , under armor, steel bumpers, rock crawl mode. Plus a more outdoor friendly interior.
Personally I wish it wasn't an automatic unit. The pure extra cost for one & that It will be convenient when it works, but when it fails it's gone from my truck. There is less complexity to manual disconnects. I've run years without sway bars front and rear with no problems so that is my back up plan when it does give up the ghost. YMMV.I gotta see the B&P before i decide what i want, but i really had my heart set on the badlands at first just because of the sway bar dc.
In that case, an aftermarket on a wildtrak sounds awfully good rn. I dont rock crawl anyways so it'd be a bonus if i get the badlandsPersonally I wish it wasn't an automatic unit.

Just realizing that this really is going to be the first true rock crawler that you can get optioned from a dealer... I can’t wait for the first YouTube videos of people trying to rock crawl their $60K+ Bronco who have never spent any serious time on a trail let alone rocks.

Gotcha. So you have to crawl under the vehicle. Still, who cares for $80.
