Personally I'd hate to have a WT, I would have abandoned it or bought and flipped it immediately. But you must like enough about it to have wanted one originally, so drive it while you wait for a BL to be built. I doubt you'll lose much if any money on a resale in 12-18 months.

So I took delivery of A Bronco on Saturday. Notice, I said “A Bronco.” So on 07/20/20 , I reserved a 4 door Wildtrak with a local dealership outside of Columbus in Ohio. On 10/20/21 I received a call from my dealership stating I would not be getting a 2021 and “we” needed to convert my reservation to a 2022. Naturally I wanted to know what the changers were to the new model and after being advised, I decided to build a Badlands instead. Built the vehicle specked out with plenty of windows xtra lighting and sticker came to about $68,000.

On 04/07/21 I received an email from Ford (not the dealership) congratulating me on my Wildtrak order with my reservation number. Obviously I was shocked considering I changed my order to the Badlands. Yep, you guessed it Bronco lovers, the dealership failed to convert the order and place it for a stock race red Wildtrak. I called them on the carpet about it and eventually they admitted it was their fault after being all to eager to keep the Wildtrak and seek it someone else. I basically got a ,”whoops, yeah we did that.” I had absolutely no recourse. Take the one I didn’t build with nothing on it that I wanted and the wrong color … or nothing. So after waiting 20 months I took delivery of A Bronco. So pissed. So tired of dealerships not being held accountable. Ford and it’s dealerships are so disconnected I got an email from Ford 4 days after I had Possession of the vehicle stating my vehicle was built and they would let me know when it shipped. WTF? I will most likely be selling it soon for its not what I ordered and if I can make a profit, I will; I believe I’ve earned it!!

There is nothing wrong with a race red wildtrak w/ a mid package. If you need to over compensate for anything, just show everyone the picture of it in front of that nice house. I would hate to be stuck with either of those 2 things.:ROFLMAO:
He got “stuck” with A house too!😂🤣😂

I got one up to 66K just now. Why, though, is the roof rack tied to the 2.3L?
GVWR discussed at length, heavier engine means less payload. No need for a roof rack if you can't legally carry anything on it. ford is protecting themselves. you can add it aftermarket.

I can't help but think this whole thing is fake, sarcasm to make fun of us on this forum.

F THEM I hope you make a killing on it!! check out Carvana and see how inflated they are selling for! similar thing for the dealership was supposed to let me know before the order was placed on 10/21/21 to see if everytjing was a go well they never called and it went in production with the wrong color . not the end of the world would have been my second choice but if it comes and i dont like it in person already have a buyer for 15k over i paid for it A Dr down the street wife wants it!! maybe ill order a Vette!

So tempted to create a new account, with username "Badlands Guy" and post an identical thread, interchanging Wildtrak and Badlands.
