Found a Base model with Sasquatch package on line. From the pictures the tires have been upgraded but it only has one Hero Switch. Sticker says it has front and rear locking differential. All other Base SAS I’ve seen have the diff. Hero Switches.

One hero switch is a base base. 4 way flashers only. Basesquatch has 1 for 4 way flashers, 1 for trail turn assist, 1 for rear lock, 1 for front lock. Does not have the switch for sway bar disconnect. Installing front and rear lockers aftermarket would cost more than the actual package, let alone the upgraded suspension...

Check the vin on sticker and on Bronco.

That is definitely just a Base. I have a BaseSquatch and like @PSUTE said, I have all the buttons except for the disconnect. Something fishy going on with that dealer.

Just noticed, that's where one of our group buys was from, Brewster Ford... hmmmm.

Also keep in mind, many dealers have web sites that auto populate. Even if it's listed, doesn't mean it's not a customer order that will be picked up.

trying to fine a dealer that isn't trying to screw people over is like finding a unicorn at this point. Sad part is it's the same guy Tim that many of us dealt with that is now selling them for crazy mark ups, although I am guessing it's the dealership and not him. I was looking for a 2 door that I originally wanted. Just laughed when he said the price

What they do? “Brewster” is a familiar name but I’m out of the loop.



But yeah… Sasquatch package should have 4 or 5 hero switches (depending on transmission):

  • Front locker
  • Rear locker
  • Traction control
  • Hazards
  • Trail Turn Assist (Automatic only)

A Base Bronco (non-Sasquatch) does not have lockers, so you will be missing the first two switches.

Only having one hero switch is… uh… strange.

on bronc6g there was a decent size group of us that sent our reservations and business to their dealership and now they are marking bronco's up with ridiculous increases. It's not just the bronco they are doing that to though. They were marking up low end mavericks to $45k. They went from a dealership you could trust to one that I will not give my business to anymore

That looks like a base with Sasquatch wheels tires and flairs and the Basesquatch badge. Basesquatch is a heck of an option pretty great deal really. But the hero switch situation on this one is very strange. It is possible they have just stock photos and not pictures of the actual vehicle.

The pictures are Ford stock pictures, and are only a representation of the actual vehicle.

A Base with Auto Trans should have switches for hazard lights, traction control, and trail turn assist. Squatch with Auto Trans would add switches for rear locker and front locker.

Looks like a poorly chosen stock photo. This rig is likely not even there and is "in transit" the VIN and window sticker should be the correct info. If you're worried get it in writing that it has SAS or full refund and get it notarized.

As mentioned above the photos in question were stock from Ford. Dealer sent photos and everything checks out as it being a Base SAS. Sticker was $47K marked up to $57k. We came to an agreement at $53k.

A base sas for $53K? What a rip off. Are you that desperate for a bronco, if not then continue to look around. There are still some dealers selling for MSRP, but I guess to each their own.
