Is Kurger Bing related to Chandler?

Yeah, it's called the 5.7L

Or even a reasonably priced 5.7L Hemi option.

I'm being pounced upon by clones!

What is the waterproof interior option? Is it a vinyl floor versus the easily removable carpet that the Jeep has?

Marine grade vinyl seats, and (I think) rubber flooring.

It’s the Society of Steve’s, an exclusive group…

I consider the Black Dimond to be more in line with the Willy's than a Sahara. Of course the line gets blurred if you add the Sasquatch package.

It's the only option to get the vinyl seats, and when you option in the electronics, you get a very similar vehicle to a Sahara. In my eyes at least. (not that a fully optioned Willy's is all that much cheaper than the Sahara)

Only if Bronco competition affects their revenues and margins.

I love my Jeep, but I bet there will be an impact.

Most Jeep owners don't really need the solid axle advantage more than they want the independent suspension stability and on road handling.

That's going to be a make or break considering some of the additional headaches Broncos fix over Jeeps.

Mirrors, Sasquatch package option on all trims, and I'm sure a few other things people have been complaining about.

Wonder if the water still flows into the cabin after washing a Bronco?

In the end, the competition will mean a better Jeep or at least another option for people.

I can't tell which Steve is the imposter anymore!

vinyl seats? That's a horrible flashback to my youth. burning your legs when going to sit down in the summer. hot sweaty a$$ and b@lls.

I wouldn't mind a more affordable 392...

Maybe a 392 Mojave with TONS...

I think the Badlands has that vinyl interior too... but that isn't going down in price though. I eventually get to the point where I Just throw in and build a Wildtrack since adding the Sasquatch gets most of the lower trims to that price point.

Dog resistant, waterproof, leather burns you too, and I can patch vinyl, but not leather.

I haven't Sasquatch'd it yet. I %1000 will get into incomprehensible trouble with that. It's why I never build Rubicons either. Lol

As far as I know its the same engine block with a larger bore and stroke... Can't really cost THAT much more than a 5.7. lol

I think it can, and does. There are other "costs" too, like weight and the need for other upgraded components.

5.7L - ~500 lbs.
6.4L - ~740 lbs.

Black diamond. With the 2.7, auto 4wd, towing, and all the electronic goodies.

I'm smitten with the 2.7L in my one fiddy. I think it's going to be an excellent motor in the Bronco.
