Why do I want the Sasquatch package so bad?

[CCBronco]

I was in the Sasquatch camp and thought the 4dr only looks good with Sas. But I’m now coming to my senses and saw pics of the BD on stock steelies w/ 32’s. It’s looks good!! I’m now considering adding 33’s to give it the “look” I want, prob better driving experience on pavement, where it will spend most of its time, and still be a very capable rig that will take me just about anywhere.

I’m getting a 4 dr BD which comes with the rear locker. I’m not going rock crawling, but def plan on going off roading when I can and I live in the NE so lots of snow in the winter. So for me...it may make sense to pass on the Sas and maybe spend that savings on something else....new mountain bike??

I live and play in Colorado - BaseSquatch WILL get a workout...I get all the "hard parts" needed (lockers, winch-ready, lift, tires/wheels) to have fun, wrapped up in a very cool vehicle, for about $40K - No-brainer to me.

I'm originally from the Pacific Northwest, hard to turn down an option named Sasquatch.

Because it is sexy AF. Don't worry me and my Mall-squatch CG OBX will be in the parking spot right next to you. Maybe with a cuppa too tree splash mark. (Maybe.)

Figured that the 16 layers of wax would prevent any splash marks... #notJudging

Yes, because this is how it looks:

Gah. Every time I see a Squatch'd 2-door I end up grumbling. It just looks so damn good but for practicality, mounting an RTT and long camping trips with the wives the 4-door will probably win out.

Sasquatch allows you to have the largest set of truck nuts on your Bronco without wall knock.

Then after a long day of off-roading with your best buddies you can all gather around the fire and whip out the ol' tape measure to see who has the longest, girthiest, hairiest..... wheelbase.

Just remember, there's always that one guy who's going to put you to shame.

And that person has a rope named Yankum.

Yeah and if you are over 60 you really better think about that.

I tried getting into one, but I fell and I couldn't get up!

This is exactly where I’m at

It was a must for me to get Sasquatch but I think going with a 4 door BD with steelies and upgrading the tires to 33s gives me the looks and capabilities I need and still allows me a few accessories I want like a RTT and slide out tailgate whenever it becomes available

I swamped two Jeeps already, this Bronco is gonna be my old man midlife crisis, wife won't let me get a Mustang vehicle.

The upgrade here in Canada is almost 10,000 canuck bucks here,that can buy alot of molsons for camping!

It looks awesome! But I urge everyone who is thinking of going Sasquatch and is on the fence to check out a Wrangler with 35s. Don't just look at it from a far. Go up and stand next to it. If you know someone who has one ask if you can climb in and out a few times. You really need to swing your leg up to get in. From a daily driver practicality stand point you need to ask yourself if you're willing to deal with that each time you drive the vehicle.

I have thought about this a lot... Here is my solution:

Why do I want the Sasquatch package so bad even though I know I will never use its capabilities. I guess I can’t say never, but almost never.

Anyone else feel that same way?

It gives an image of adventure/excitement, even if the owner might not in reality be up for it. That's really what Ford marketing is selling. That's why my buddy bought a fully loaded Rubicon to drive to the grocery store, lol. But I'd strongly encourage owners to take some risk and have some real adventure with the rigs. Life is short and the Walter Mitty thing is boring. Put some dents in the skid plates!

You just gave me a slight bit of anxiety thinking about my baby getting dented up. There will be a time but it may take me a few years before pushing it to a point where I won't be concerned about some dents. Even in the skid plates.

if you'll never use, why buy it...also...check prices on replacing those tires. If you're not going to use Saq, you'll dole out a lot of money on the rubber. that's my one cent worth anyway
