So here I sit; the order was just submitted yesterday for a 2025 Marsh Gray Badlands, with Sas, Lux, Black appearance, and a heavy-duty bumper. I spent the night watching YouTube videos and browsing Amazon for accessories when it hit me.

There is a whole army of Bronco experience in this forum, so tell me, folks, if you had to do it over, or if this is your first time ordering like me, what would be the top 5 accessories that you would get for your Bronco right out of the gate?

I love what Michael Grasso did with his new ride! What about the rest of you!

Wash out floors is one of the reasons I picked the Black Diamond package. Am I correct in saying Black Diamond is no longer an option?
Other reasons: Full bash plates, Steel bumpers, locking rear diff, marine vinyl seats.

It is a package you can add to the Big Bend now. Not sure if it gives you all the goodies a Black Diamond did.

It doesn't.

The original Black Diamond 2-door let you order the Advanced transfercase as a stand-alone option for just $750. It was the only trim that offered the manual transmission and the Advanced transfercase combination. If you want that combination now, it comes as an $8.5K option with Sasquatch on the Base trim for $50.2K . Or standard on a Badlands, now at $50.6K.

I think Badlands allowed that combination. Badlands comes standard with the Advanced transfer case and could be ordered with the 2.3 and the manual transmission.

Yeah, it's been a while since 2021... Memory fade. What I really meant to say was, of the four lower trims the Black Diamond was the only trim that had the Advanced transfercase as a standalone option. As you correctly stated the Badlands did have the Advanced transfercase as standard, but it came as a $7K+ MSRP hit. Now, starting in 2024 the Black Diamond dropped the Advanced transfercase option outside of getting the Sasquatch option and Ford dropped the Black Diamond trim altogether.

Thanks for the correction.
