Attached it a sheet have to me at dealership showing what can’t be ordered and percentages. I was surprised to see Wildtrak and Outer Banks cloth seats on the list. Looks like I’m getting leather.

What is funny is that to get leather you have to get lux. Lux and Wildtrack are both 18% or 7 so a Wildtrack with leather puts you not only at a higher pricepoint but also double dipping into crap numbers.
I do find it odd that cloth is not available but then again it is par for the course.
Don't think there is any problem in producing Base Broncos. It is just that retail orders won't be accepted. Existing Base orders that haven't been scheduled in the mass scheduling this winter are put on hold until Q3 of which Ford will likely clear out those remaining orders. But the Base trim will serve as back-filling the schedule to full-fill dealer stock.I would love to hear the explanation as to why a Base model can’t be produced. Every Bronco in theory starts out as a Base.
I could have swore lux was needed for leather...maybe that changed since 21 when I got mine. Also I can see that changing if lux a d cloth are constraints.could be wrong but nobody haven’t heard from dealership or seen in forum that to get leather you need lux. My order will have the high package but requires leather cause of course can’t do cloth.
It could be the lack of cloth seating material since that is a major constraintI would love to hear the explanation as to why a Base model can’t be produced. Every Bronco in theory starts out as a Base.
Valid points, but Ford made up the money left on the table with the Base model through the Bad Lands model. The disconnect bar option solely on the BL made that possible.Don't think there is any problem in producing Base Broncos. It is just that retail orders won't be accepted.

IMO, after the initial launch year, Ford should have restricted the Base model to be only dealer stock and fleet orders. Force retail buyers up to the Big Bend or higher. At the core, the Base Bronco is a great value and even a terrific value adding the Sasquatch package. It is too good of a value. Great for the buyer and good for anyone that has one ordered. But Ford was leaving money on the table.
You can get leather with mid.I could have swore lux was needed for leather...maybe that changed since 21 when I got mine. Also I can see that changing if lux a d cloth are constraints.
My thought is Ford is greedy and looking at higher profit margins and punishing us.I would love to hear the explanation as to why a Base model can’t be produced. Every Bronco in theory starts out as a Base.
