Your comparison of a regular F-150-Raptor vs. BB-Wildtrak Broncos is comparing apples to oranges. The Raptor equivalent for Bronco is the yet-to-be-released Warthog for Bronco, which will also have wider track/flares, hood, graphics, etc., not Wildtrak, which is more like a Platinum F-150. So, for your comparison to hold water, you should instead be comparing a F-150 Lariat to a Platinum - where the biggest exterior differences are - you guessed it - a different grille insert, fender badge, wheels, different mirror caps/door handles, and more importantly, access to additional options. Sure, on the outside they look largely the same, but there's a lot more difference than that.Let me see if I can make some sense for you of where I am coming from.
On the Wildtrak vs the Big Bend Sasquatch yeah they have some little subtle differences but not really a huge thing. I mean seriously a shiny black grill vs a satin one, black trim rings on the wheels, a different fender badge and lastly shiny black mirrors instead of again the satin ones. I'm not including the top because the original poster included optioning the Big Bend with the same. Ok you say that is visually distinctive and technically that is correct but me personally I think that it is kinda cheesy on Ford's part.
Now let's compare a Ford Raptor vs a regular F-150, now that's what I say being visually distinctive is all about. The Raptor has a totally different grill, all four fenders are flared out much wider, the hood is totally different, it has huge graphics on the fenders, the tail gate is totally different and the exhaust is not anywhere like the standard F-150. Now that is what I'm talking about as to being visually different. But hey, if you find a trim different because some of the satin parts are now painted shiny black and it has a different fender badge then all I can say is Ford loves guys like you. You will pay extra coin to get a trim level that literally cost them next to nothing. What say you RMC?
As others have pointed out, if the extra design differentiators, nor access to additional options, are not important to you or whomever, then go with the Big Bend optioned up. For myself and others, Wildtrak suits us just fine......even if it's "kinda cheesy" that Wildtrak follows the same pattern of trim levels that all vehicles from all makes have.
