I went to the Canadian Ford site and looked at the Wildtrak. It’s showing body colored door handles and painted black grille. Also shows body color fender flares which we know aren’t true with the Sasquatch. The plot thickens....!

https://www.ford.ca/suvs/bronco/2021/models/bronco-wildtrak/

I think the handles will be body color and grill and mirrors painted black since the model comparison pdf shows Wildtrak is Outer Banks content plus whereas the other trims have Bend Bend content plus.
Did you also happen to notice how much more ours are to buy than yours with a dollar worth less than 3/4 of yours ?☹

I’m ‘Murican good sir. State of WA currently. Born in TX and raised in FL.

Also, I’m turning as many US Dollars into Bronco Bucks as I can while I wait for delivery.

Same question here. So many things were moving fast last night that I didn’t notice the carpet feature.
My “changes” I hope will be configurable at build time are to “downgrade” to the rubberized floor with drain plugs and optioning a soft top
This is a good reason to get the Black Diamond with Sasquatch, 2.7L & hard top.

I think it finally got settled today. I've been waffling between my reserved Black Diamond, a Badlands, or the Wildtrak:

My must-haves are the V6, Auto, Hard-top and Mid Package. I get the feeling that all of those additions will put me in the range of a stock Wildtrak....which, all come standard with that model, plus, the Sasquatch package as icing on the cake.

I ran all this by my Wife, thinking she'd shoot down the Wildtrak right off the bat, mostly due to the price and the Sasquatch package, but, she surprised me by telling me to go for it, since it's fully loaded with everything on my list, and we don't aim to do any hardcore off-roading and rock crawling. So, it's looking like we're springing for a 4-door Wildtrak with Area 51 as the color. Works for me!

I feel like that gets lost in translation. Everyone is acting as if you can only rockcrawl with a badlands. The more experienced can correct me, but I think without the swaybar, you just have to be more careful about making the correct lines and keep as many tires on the ground as possible (no safety net). I fully intend to play around in Moab with a wildtrak.
If your going to rock climb your going to definitely want the disconnect sway bar. It increases your articulation across the vehicle to help you over large rocks.
Personally I have no intention of rock climbing and most that do have older 4x4s that are specificly set up it. But there are the 10% to 20% that will put a new vehicle on the rocks. Call me faint of heart but I don't see myself taking my $60k vehicle over huge rocks. Just not my cup of tea, but hats off to the folks that enjoy it.

Sorry if this has been asked, but is Wildtrak eligible for x-plan? My dealer said FE isn’t but could not confirm Wildtrak.
X Plan was confirmed on the Broncos. But Ford hasn't released yet if FE qualifies. Each dealer has the abilitity to offer or deny XPlan once Ford qualifies it. Might be just your dealer that decided not to offer it on FE. We still have the ability to switch dealers until Oct. 31. I suggest getting it in writing from them offering Xplan. If they're willing to exclude FE who's to say they won't exclude Wildtrak.

It might be my imagination, but if the wish list includes 4 doors, big engine, auto trans, and a hard top, is the Wildtrack actually going to be a super high value? I just have this vision of optioning any of the lower trims with the above list, and for two grand more standard Sasquatch. I guess we won’t know for sure till the configurator lands.

That metric speedometer is expensive.

You are not alone, I want the same thing.. premium cloth WITH the vinyl floors. Screw that Weathertech crap.
I just wish there was as much noise about the rubber floors being available across all trim levels as the white top / standard transmission crowds. Cloth seats and rubber floors? Sure, forego the pressure washer and be a little careful. I don’t even like carpet in my Explorer, and it’s a pavement princess. I took a giant pee on “If only Ford would. . .” thinking in a previous post, and here I am killing it.

Exactly... I plan on basically building the Wildtrack starting with each trim (that allow Mid) and see how it all compares.

My guess is WT would be more expensive (because it will have little things the others would not) but if it is close enough... It would be worth it.

Value = price+quality+performance....the 3 components must be balanced equally to attain Value...good engineering managers/teams know this. Too often accounting (sometimes with marketing)comes in with focus only on costs (reducing costs of goods sold (COGS) is the easiest way to increase profits)...like many here Wildtrak offers (imo) the best value...we won't know until the configuration program is complete...meanwhile I "play" in the Ranger program wishing and hoping the Bronco program goes live before Halloween!

Has there been a picture released of what the Wildtrack hood graphic will look like? Not too crazy about the thought of that and I hope it is easy to remove

That'll make or break the wildtrak for me. If I don't like the graphic, I'll just build a badlands up, price be damned. I don't want to risk scratching stuff up just to remove a decal

Hopefully there is a graphic delete option like the f-150 SE.
