Hello from the DMV

[Wildtrak_Dave]

Howdy! Georgia boy here stuck in the DC Metro Area. I recently became the proud owner of a 2022 Wildtrak, named Crystal. In a perfect world my build would have been finalized but with delays (and my dealership issues) I held off. Thankfully somebody didn’t like the color on their Wildtrak and a different local dealer offered me a great deal! Thankfully because I didn’t waste my order I actually still am on the list for a Raptor. I still need to finalize the order or release and I am hoping to get some opinions on this.

Should I buy and sell it after purchase to try and make a profit and take a chunk out of my current bronco payment?

Give up the spot and enjoy what I have?

Or enjoy what I have until my raptor can be built then sell the Wildtrak?

All opinions welcome. Will be posting a build thread for crystal soon here. I’ve only had a week to start but got my running boards on last night which is the first of many things to come.

Get the Bronco Raptor (Warthog). Just my opinion. Love the WildTrak though.

It’s does look so nice and I saw them side by side yesterday… it’s a bigger change than I thought. Initially was thinking it was just the engine and some fender flares

If it was me I’d trade the WildTrak in on the Raptor when it’s delivered.

no no on this forum. See pictures. I can try to find the post if you’re interested

I am leaning this way. Any ideas how that works initially? Do you have 2 payments during the build process?

you don’t pay until you take delivery.

Raptor for me. I get the opportunity here but I didn’t get a Bronco to make money.

However, I can understand if you have things like kids/college tuition/etc. Not knowing your situation, if someone came up to you and offered you $10-$20k, what type of impact would it have on you? That’s basically what you are looking at If things hold currently. The horror stories of ADM are so prevalent that you don’t have to make this decision until that day. Keeping fingers crossed that not too many dealers don’t jack it up $30k. I had 2 dealers tell me when I inquired about ordering in August that they are charging $25k-$30k markup.

I reserved two broncos initially. Kept the FE and cancelled the Wildtrack reservation.
Stupid, Stupid, Stupid KEEP THE RESERVATION. Someone local will buy it.
