Seems like Ford needs to work on consistency across their info.
Unfortunately, the “trailer tow package” is just the class II hitch and associated hardware, no real suspension change AFAIK. And a class 2 hitch is only rated for 3500lbs, so unless they release a new towing package with HD suspension and a class III hitch, it’s not looking hopefulI have a feeling that will change with the 4 door + towing package. There's just no way that all engines, transmissions, packages, trims, and lengths have the same tow rating. Also, the individual specs are officially "TBD"
For me, the manual is why I am getting it period. This is an extra vehicle for me, although my DD is a manual too. I was looking at the Gladiator since it comes with a manual, but the Bronco just fits into my needs better.
If it was auto only, I would not have even considered it. Really pleased with Ford for offering the minority a real choice.

The Bandlands/manual still comes with 4.70 gears even without Sasquatch. Swap out the 33s for 35s and you're there.

Stuck between a sasquatch package on a black diamond(yes I know it will be an auto) and a manual on a badlands. Have a 2 door badlands reserved and it will all come down to price on the options I want. The badlands is the sasquatch package but has 33's instead of 35's which I can live with

I had a dual clutch in my Lancer Ralliart and that was about the sweetest transmission ever made, but it is still not a manual. It was great, but not as ingaging as using a real clutch
I must have missed that! That changes some things for me a bit. Knowing that the main differences ae the high clearance flares and the 35" tires... those can be changed...
Thanks

Ditto, ditto, ditto
Just give me the MT with the 2.7L and I'll be happy......
wanting a Badlands 2.7L MT.......
and before someone says ..... they would have to have a totally different MT for the 2.7L..........
I say ... they did a Brand New MT for the 2.3L, so they SHOULD HAVE designed it with a Bolt On Bell Housing (one for the 2.3L & one for the 2.7L) and with the internals to handle the output from a modified 2.7L.
Just Saying.......

Same! 2.7 W/ MT, Please GOD ?. I don’t ask for much, make it happen, Ford!

as disappointed as I am, I don’t think this is going to happen. I’m coming to grips with the manual only being Offered with the 2.3. I think it will be really fun to rev out those gears in stock form and with some bolt ons and tune it will make as much power as the 2.7. Of course you won’t have the potential of the 2.7 but I’m not looking for big power with the Bronco. I’ve had some really anemic 4cyls in the past , 22re Toyota pick up, Acura Integra, Nissan Sentra that were still fun with a manual
Truth is I’m not an off-roader and probably never will be, but since this is the only square SUV with a stick shift in the US, and I’ve always loved the OB and rowing my own, Ford has left me no choice but to buy one!

With my 'vert Auto Mustang, I did 14.7 in a quarter mile when it was completely stock (Also not a racer)
Remind me remind me remind me later to take a pic of my dyno sheet at my parents house, definitely capable for a turbo 4banger

This isn't JDM, but this was the 1st Dyno I did
This was without a downpipe and forget what else, so gains of 73.31hp/99.65

That would be perfect on the Bronco. I was reading the Ranger forums and there’s some guys in the 13s with tunes. Pretty good for a 4000lb truck. I had an 03 350z which though I didn’t drag race they were maybe high 13-14 sec cars. Would be cool to have a Bronco that’s quicker than my 350z wasThis isn't JDM, but this was the 1st Dyno I did
