That a stupid comment. I want want badlands without 3 options and they tell me those 3 cost me $8-10k more? How about you all give us $10k so we can upgrade to BL just so we can get that extra option and let’s here you bitch so we can tell you to put a sock in it...You want a badlands without 1 feature thatll help the resale value and provide offroad utility... to an offroad vehicle.

Simple...charge you $$$$s more for a $100 option you wanted that’s included only in said package.This is my gripe to add to the debate. Its small and nitpicky as shit but I dont care. Every Bronco is equipped with Sync 4 which, as a standard feature, has wireless CarPlay/AA. Why the hell would they not allow every trim level the add-on option of the wireless phone charger?? First world probs but def trying to understand why its only available as part of the Lux package. I already know the answer
I ordered a BB with upgrades. The only difference between my BB and the standard WT is the Baja goat mode which I don’t need anyways and came out cheaperI'm going to answer my own question - it's all about the Benjamins - but seriously, it annoys me.
As for what I need in a bronco:
As for what I want:
- I need the 4-door for family - that is my truly only basic need.
I don't need:
- I want black MGV seats that are easy to maintain
- I want the 2.7L / 10speed
- I want the LT285/70R17 All-Terrain A/T Tires 33s with the 17" Black High Gloss-Painted Aluminum Wheels (Can only get it on the BLs)
- I want the high-package (can only get on the BL, OBX, and WT)
- The OBX Interior is atrocious
- The WT is too expensive and I'm not a fan of the hood graphic
- And when you start adding the things I do want to the BL, the price becomes higher than a WT, which has SAS.
- I want the steel heavy-duty bumpers (extra)
- I want the signature LED lights (can't get it on the BD for some dumb reason)
- I want the rock rails (extra)
- I want the 12-inch touch screen (see above - have to get the high-package, which is only available on OBX, BL, WT, and FE).
- I want sport mode
- SAS
- Sway-bar disconnect
At this point, I'm debating just getting a base or BB, and doing all this aftermarket stuff myself, later. I guess I won't (At least not cheaply) be able to get the 12-inch screen, but other than that, maybe I can actually get the Bronco I want.
Just annoyed at the options. I just can't justify spending over 50k on a BL at the moment. And yes, I know I am whining, but I just feel like there is a lack of options here, so Ford can make more money. Frustrating. (Just venting, sorry).
Curious what others are doing.
i know. Fuck me for wanting just a little more reasonability in choiceThis thread screams “Entitlement”
This whole website screams entitlement.This thread screams “Entitlement”
No, every single option can be added or removed free from everything else. The fact of the matter is that you have to spend $10K+ over a $38k vehicle. To get a cpl options worth $2-3k at best. That’s pathetic. You should have optional fabric or vinyl in base model. Optional auto vs manual 4x4 select. Head lights. The vehicle is modular. They rant and rave over how modular it is and yet you can’t pick and choose what you want in it from the ground up? It ain’t modular!This thread screams “Entitlement”
Well, it's all raving, no ranting, but you make a good point!They rant and rave over how modular it is and yet you can’t pick and choose what you want in it from the ground up?
Well it's called a base model for a reason. You can't expect to put everything on it and BB is basically a base. Don't even know why that model exist other than to get people to upgrade to the BD Or above.No, every single option can be added or removed free from everything else.

Regardless of whether you like the price or not, the majority of what you "want" is the definition of the Badlands. Sounds to me like you have champagne taste on a beer budget.I'm going to answer my own question - it's all about the Benjamins - but seriously, it annoys me.

i’m just annoyed I have to spend an extra $10,000 to get maybe $2000 worth of upgrades that I want. I have the budget. Just don’t see the upside.Regardless of whether you like the price or not, the majority of what you "want" is the definition of the Badlands. Sounds to me like you have champagne taste on a beer budget.
If you lose the requirement for the 12" screen then the Black Diamond is a good alternative.
Maybe you should eat a snickersi’m just annoyed
