Ultimate Big Bend Non-Sasquatch pics thread

Except it's not really, since WT is limited to autotragic only.

Right but Sas to Sas (std on Wildtrak), both Autos, BB $7K cheaper.

I’m sure this has been addressed many times before but does the 12” screen do anything that the 8” doesn’t? I know it’s packaged with 360 cameras and such but other than that is it just a bigger screen?

That's pretty much it. Both are running SYNC 4.0, and as you mentioned the High package includes the 360 cameras. Some have mention the tiling of the screens is better accommodated on the 12" with regards to having 2 windows/screens at the same time, but the functionality is the same.

So this horse has been beaten to death, but this thread seems like a good place to put this for the most visibility: am I right to have gathered from This thread that the Big Bend will take 285/75/17's without any lift on the stock wheels?

IDK but that's actually a 34" tire. The mildly lifted non Sas BL just runs 33's in that width 285/70 x 17. My guess would be you would have issues. Shorter and/or narrower you'd probably be OK, but we just don't know yet

I've enjoyed watching the Ultimate Black Diamond Non-Sasquatch pics thread but being a non Sas Big Bend guy I thought I's shoot this out there. I've liked the VB BB on the southern tour, but haven't saved any photos.

BB was my first build in VB and man I really like the Sandstone interior and the rims but once I really thought it threw I realized the Sasq as Coooooool as it is didn’t really make sense for me I jumped to OB for Lux, I will miss out on front locker which from my CJ5 days was unstoppable but at 60+++++ I think I’ll be fine thanks for posting thread

I think that split screen function is exclusive to the 12” screen.

12” screen gives you the split screen function. 8” doesn’t get that, but otherwise it’s the same operating system on smaller screen

Thanks for the clarification. I thought I read about the limitation, but since last December, my focus has been on the OBX with High package so I didn't pay close attention to the 8" limitations. As I mentioned before, I have some soul searching to do before MY22 order banks open. The BB has everything that I need sans 12" screen. The OBX suits me just fine as well even if it offers items such as the grandpa steps and tires/wheels that I don't care for.

I went and saw the Velocity Blue big bend in person on the southeast tour. Great looking vehicle. I felt like in person, the height and tire size were excellent for anyone that doesn’t need Sasquatch, but wants to do the same outdoorsy hunting/fishing/camping/beach driving/winter sports stuff you would do in a stock mid-size or full-size truck. It looks way better in person IMO. A 1-2” level would be my only personal addition for that kind of Big Bend build. Only took a couple pictures because I was too busy getting in around around everything, but here’s what I got waiting in line.

I would contribute the couple of pix I snapped but you already beat me to the punch with the exact same Bronco I saw, as well as the same dude and (cute) girl presenting them.

Also, this dude told me that I was going to see my 7/27 build by August. I gave him the "Have you lost your mind? 'Cause I'll help ya find it." look as soon as he said it.

I'm thinking of a 4 dr OBX (monotone w/ green top if I could) to replace my Explorer next year and to complement my 2dr BB run about I'm getting this year. That new green in OBX with advanced 4x4, steps and other niceties would make a great DD, long trip mobile. I'll see how the BB feels as a road machine.

Is the silver 2D one iconic silver or carbonized gray? ... I ordered a 2D BD Iconic Silver and this is the closest I've seen to my build. I like it a lot.

I'm betting Carb Gray, those factory light shots are notorious for looking lighter than natural light.

Yeah I think you're right
