Why do I want the Sasquatch package so bad?

[Bronc-O]

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?

I think a lot of people are buying it to get noticed. Many of them will have no need for it and will probably hate the way it makes the Bronco ride and regret spending so much extra money. It's their money though, so if they want it, why not?

Because my ego is fragile and my wiener is small.

You summed up what I tried to say with just one sentence.

If I get it, it'll be on the Base model at the expense of getting MGV interior on a BD. But to answer the question and why I'm considering it, is I think about the future use of why I'm buying this vehicle. I envision having this vehicle until the wheels fall off or I'm dead, so I want to live in the mountains at some point and think it'd be very useful. I figure the ability of a BaseSas would get me ready for anything, with limited money out of pocket up front vs building it in the aftermarket down the road.

I think these upgrades aftermarket in 5-10 years could be more expensive than the upfront cost right now. I have zero knowledge of all these parts/upgrades, but it's just a thought I've been considering.

I just don't meet a lot of people who regret getting bigger tires on a 4x4...I hear A LOT who want to move to bigger tires. This truck needs at least 33s on the 2 door / 35s on the 4 door. More people will regret not getting them and pursue upgradeing, then those who wish they had smaller tires. Not many wish for that.

Bigger tires is bigger $$$ when time to replace. That's why I'm glad Outer Banks has a more reasonable sized tire.

To each his own...but you're saving a few hundred dollars 40,000 miles later. Look at a 4 door jeep sport and see if it looks reasonably good with tires that small.

Coming from 33's where going to 35's would take more mods this is nice to have out of the box. But I've been on the fence with it until today. Was on a conference call in my truck and this OJ unit parks next to me, with this sticker confirming the sasquatch package is the correct choice.

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

I had a lifted Jeep before (in my 30's) and it was REALLY TALL. But I only had 33" tires on it, and always wanted 35's. My husband has 35's on the F150, and it's my turn. Turning 60 is not too far off, but I'll get a stepladder if I have to!

On the other hand, I am getting an automatic despite having driven standard for 38 of the last 39 years. I've already had shoulder surgery, have minor arthritis in my knees, and don't want to end up not being able to drive the Bronco some years down the line.

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

Its definitely more of a pain the butt to get down into my mustang then up into My JKU.

Well my wife doesn't want to hear about the Bronco. She is happy I can get one. But the only vehicle she wants input on is her SUV and her Harley. If its for me, her words are get what you want. She is happy about the Bronco than my last corvette.

BL with Sasquatch for sure. Yes I will most likely use is some. Both my Brothers have jeeps, on on 37's and my middle brother just stretched the frame on his so he could run 40" tires.

Thought about getting rid of the Sasquatch but nope I am still all in.

Rethinking some things, Squatch is not one of them, also all in...
