Had one, 2020. Don't look really good lifted.Sounds like you want street comfort, nice interior, and are willing to spend some $$ and only ever expect to do light wheeling.
May I direct you to Range Rover Defender my good gentleman.
Actually, sounds like a good match for what you're looking for......now thinking maaaybe a used braptor??
i just hate the color options, not even Carbonized. Shelter looks like dogActually, sounds like a good match for what you're looking for.
Lifted, 37's, more power, more plush .... more winning.
I hated the fenders at first, but they seem to be growing on me because .... Braptor..... hello....
Lot's of ideas out there for taming the fenders. I saw where they have painted them body color now and that did a lot to bring them back into proportion.
The SAS on my 2024 Heritage rides like a dream. Handling is superb and it rides smoother than many cars.So here is where I am at, would love others input as it has been awhile since I have had a truck.
After researching the Hoss 3.0 and reading your comments, I will never be doing high speed desert off roading. I may be doing Moab/Big Bend sort of things, light trails, small boulders etc. It appears the WT is designed for high speed Baja.
My only real concern is street comfort (I know the Bronco is not built for comfort but also don't want it to ride like a Wrangler) and being able to fit 37's.
The only thing I am "missing" from a 24 Badlands build to a 23/24 WT is the Hoss 3.0 and the price difference in those builds for me is $3820 MSRP.
My thoughts are that I want the 24 Badlands, mostly because of the new interior and the upgraded front parts that are standard. Read that the Bilsteins are more for rock crawling too. And if the Bilsteins aren't comfy enough then I can get the Eibachs for $1900 or something nicer for $4000 right?
So the 2nd question is that if I do get the 24 BL, do I get the SAS on the 24 for an extra $3245? The only thing I would be getting is the 4.7, diff wheels/tires and slightly different fenders correct? So for me it is really just the 4.7 and fenders if I am keeping them since wheels/tires will be replaced.

Going from a 32" light highway A/T tire to a 33.5" heavy E-load M/T tire with the 4.27 did impact acceleration some (roughly the same as going from 33's to 35's with a 4.46), but my Bronco is far from sluggish.I think the 4.7 gearing and those super light weight stock 35s is sluggish enough, especially off the line. I wouldnt want to do 37s and 4.46. Just my 2 cents.
Agreed, but you are running the same gearing the op is talking about with a 33. A 37 will have much greater weight and much larger diameter than a 33. Turbo's are amazing though and they can compensate for larger/heavier tires but only once the car is going and not from a standstill. So 0 to 20 would get hurt where 55 to 75 won't be as noticeable. It would depend on what the OP wants to do with his rig.Going from a 32" light highway A/T tire to a 33.5" heavy E-load M/T tire with the 4.27 did impact acceleration some (roughly the same as going from 33's to 35's with a 4.46), but my Bronco is far from sluggish.
IMO you are seriously overthinking this. I did the same when I ordered in 2021. Back & forth. Changed order, then changed back. Blah blah.So here is where I am at, would love others input as it has been awhile since I have had a truck.

I run 37's on my BL and it is non SaS. My Bronco is nowhere near sluggish, and a few V6 Mustangs and F150's have found out the hard way. Now admittedly I have the Ford tune, and I have a full intake system, down pipe, and exhaust. So yeah, not stock. But as I said, def not sluggish, not in the least.I think the 4.7 gearing and those super light weight stock 35s is sluggish enough, especially off the line. I wouldnt want to do 37s and 4.46.
