Thoughts on a Badlands with an automatic and 2.7?

[NastyNate]

I reserved a base model the day they dropped. I originally wanted that trim with the Sasquatch package and a manual. I understand that's probably not going to happen so I've been going back and forth with ideas. What's your take on a Badlands, no Sasquatch, with the 2.7 V6 and an auto? Thank you.

That is my plan so far. Plus lux package and dual tops. I'm sure more will be added once B&P is available.

I'm leaning towards the same, non-squatch Badlands, AT 2.7 Lux. I'm not sure I see the benefits to squatching a Badlands.

think the 4 dr BL, with sas and 2.7, and lux pkg is what I want, but the build prices are going to determine a few things. Think a build like this will put me at LE costs.

Excellent choice, I'm going Badlands, no Sasquatch, with the 2.7 V6, auto trans and the Lux package.

I reserved the 4dr Badlands, and am planning to go with the non-squatch 2.7L AT and High package. Probably throw a hard top on too. I'll probably refine that though when the Build and Price is released.
My thoughts are that 33In A/Ts are plenty of tire for my expected use, which will mostly be daily driving during the week with weekends spent exploring trails and backroads. The 2.7L will have enough power for getting the 5000-ish pound vehicle up to freeway merging speeds and be able to haul a small overlanding trailer for the backcountry adventures.

One of the benefits of the Badlands is that you get the 33's and same suspension as the Sasquatch and can keep the manual option. My plan is Badlands with manual, mid package, the optional wheels and hopefully a white top and flares (if I don't go with white as primary color) in one of the blues.

2.7 is the only way to go ... for me anyway

Curious what about the Lux attracts you. Of course we don't know the cost differences yet but I thought the Lux was lacking in any stand out components.

Adaptive Cruise Control
Evasive Steering

95% Daily Driver means I want the maximum safety technology.

Gotcha. I have both of those on my explorer and don't use either of them so I guess they aren't as attractive for me.

Love my Adaptive cruise and I also want the heated steering wheel. I think both of these options can be had stand alone. So I will just get the mid, 2.7, auto and probably squatch, also the shiny top 2 door.

I just installed a garage door opener in my wife’s car. $150 off Amazon.
