Wildtrak makes no sense at all.

[bmclain]

I reserved the Wildtrak 4 door. I’ve looked at every other model and can only get everything I want on the WT or an optioned up OBX -
2.7
Sasquatch
MIC Roof
Sound deadening
Tube Steps
Leather power seating
Lux (and outside of the garage door opener I want everything the High and Lux packages have ... I’ll be in this car 90 minutes a day back and forth to work and have been spoiled by ACC ... and I travel a lot and utilize the tech a great deal)
Tow pkg
Keyless entry pad
Canvas Bimini
Either way I’m just under 60k ... while I don’t love the WT interior colors - especially the beige dash - I do prefer the wheels over the OBX ... so that the way I’m going. Big Bend doesn’t get me anywhere near the options I want in a vehicle ... obviously there’s a price difference but choosing what I want doesn’t make me any less intelligent than the person who opts for Base or BB due to the cost preference.

I was all in on WT. Love the black accents. But the more I thought about it, the more I decided I didn't want carpet or leather seats. MGV and washout plus the mod top late availability pushed me to badlands. Good job ford...

7th GOAT Mode Is the name of my new band.

You can use that name if you name your first album “Hood Graphix”

I'm getting a better looking grill, better looking wheels, better looking door handles + mirrors as well as access to better packages like the high package and possibly leather seats on my Wildtrak. I really like the digital camo cloth seats but have always had leather in my daily driver so still undecided there. I LOVE the good graphic as well as the side graphics with the mountains. Stock Wildtrack > Fully loaded Big Bend.

I agree on the carpet. I’ll also add the floor liners - do like the idea of the washout floor but will need the tube steps which are unavailable on badlands. And want power seats - actually would go with the MGV if offered in OBX or WT and powered.

Oh definitely. Wouldn’t wanna catch the Rona.

I just tried to build a Big Ben spec'ed out like my Wildtrak. No luxury package option, No Leather interior option, No Black Grille, Mirrors & Emblems, No Hood Decal. No Thank you. Comparing a Wildtrak to a Big Ben makes No sense at all. ?

No Cool Headlights

Leather power seating

Wild track doesn't have power seats on the leather. only the navy pier on OBX and FE says it has power seats, and only on the 4 door for some reason?

I think it's a glich on the canadian B&P. If you look at the US B&P the WT have the power seat with leather option.

Wild track would be perfect if it weren’t for the shitty interior. I planned on getting one until the reveal. Everything else about it is awesome.

WTF, you are 100% correct. Unless that is a difference with the candian WT, which makes zero sense... We can't rely on the B&P for anything, feel like I'm going to have no idea what i'm ordering until it arrives at the dealer

Agreed, I was about to say i agree with the title of this thread, but not the OP. WT is an asthetic package with only one color choice... Functionally WT is a cheaper BL if you don't need the sway bar disco and steel bumpers, but now I have to get those as it's cheaper than re-doing the interior. at least i'll have all the hero switches filled in, lol.

Wildtrak does have some things over the built up Big Bend. Wildtrak in this case is a blackout/appearance package (different style gloss black grill, gloss black mirror caps, black Bronco emblem) with all black Sasquatch wheels and comes with body-colored door handles. People do care about the appearance quite a bit and blackout trims do command some sort of premium from the factory. It gives access higher options (High/Lux), leather seats and Cyber Orange color. It may have some hidden features that aren’t very clear right now the higher trims get like high level instrument panel. It may have higher resale value due to the higher trim versus built up lower trim. I do think it lost a lot of its value without the black painted modular top which really completed the look.

I think in the specific case that you outlined, yes the extra cost isn’t worth the premium (at least to me). I think for someone who wants the look or additional options the difference could be worth it.

I’m getting the WT and think it’s well worth it plus I love the two tone leather interior. I also prefer the black grille and body color handles and option to get the high or lux package.
