Wildtrack gets body color mirror and handles. It's essentially an offroad version of the OB.
Except the Wildtrak doesn't get the simple black interior of the Badlands. I'd love the body-colored extra bits, but prefer the black interior. I'm hoping the final B&P gives us a few more options, as they did with giving the FE a black interior option.

What is the antenna for? First time I've seen a new Bronco with one.
The AM / FM radio.

They’ve basically had them all along... but they would sometimes take them off of the static display units.

All the running/driving units have had them

If it's anything like our Explorer or Expedition were, the black button on the left should do those functions.

I don't have the black button on my Edge...to open I just touch the handle and the door unlocks...to lock I just hit the 2 bottom buttons on the B post..(don't have a key hole either)

Isn't that a bit "retro?"
One would think that of all vehicles, a Bronco could use the antenna embedded in the glass, and not hanging out where it can get chopped off...

I rarely (if ever) listen to AM/FM radio these days. Will be the first thing I take off and store under the seat in the event I want to listen to commercials. ?

Keypad on the door? AM/FM radio? What is this? 1996?

No way. An antenna up front is awesome on a tall vehicle for letting you know if you can under something. It hits first...even in garages, it helps all the time. It’s not getting chopped off; they bend.

Can’t believe that keypad made it to production in 2020. It looks like something you get at Pep Boys or at the checkout at Walmart.
Here's the mind blower; putting that ancient stick-on keypad today, already guarantees it will be the outdated stone age crap you get on a 2025.

I think that's why he asked how many of you guys use them.

I didn't assume anything, that's why I literally asked how often you guys were using them. They offer no convenience at all in my experience.

If the black button doesn't lock the door, what do you think it does? Can't imagine it's there for nothing.

I just meant as far as locking and unlocking the door, obviously, when the key is present.

Both the Expo and Explorer did that, unlocked as you approached the vehicle, and then you could lock the door by pressing the button when exiting the vehicle. The other poster mentioned pressing the bottom 2 buttons to lock the door. I simply think the button will probably replace that function.
