Agree. Just heritagize the Raptor. Is that a word?Simple solution. Keep the raptor and paint the grill, wheels and roof white. Oh also the dash inside. Boom!

What Should I Do? Raptor vs Heritage

Definitely but the rack is the real issue. No shop has done one and they can’t program it. I can get the rack programmed but I’ve never installed one or seen a video on it. Also if I’m getting a heritage bronco it’s going to be one like this
If you plan on taking it on a typical (narrow) trail or parking in a lot get the Heritage. If you plan on driving beyond any sensible/legal speed get the Raptor.

I was in a similar position I had reserved a 2 door and a 4 door wildtrack on the first day of reservations. Ordered both. At the same time. 4 door came in November 21. The 2 door arrived January 23 had forgotten all about it till my dealership called to tell me it was there. I was sick trying to figure out what to do. I could afford both just not sure I wanted to. So I got them both and am extremely happy I did. At some point I will figure out which one is better for me and sell the other or get a offer I can't refuse, just not yet.
They are both completely loaded Wildtracks

Heritagize is definitely a word. That's what I did!

Go with the heritage, unless you are going to do a whole bunch of high speed desert running...I have a 2023 2-Door Bronco Heritage Cactus Grey that has been built (2.3L, Manual Shift).

When something is less capable and functional you feel the need to overcompensate.Why do those who like 2-doors find the need to pronounce it all the time. It's kinda like those people coming to the door all the time thing to sell their religion.
Like what you like...
I'm in the Heritage camp simply because most of the wheeling I do is on tight narrow trails. The Raptor is a beast.

One more time. Keep the Raptor. Your crazy to think anything else. I hate to say this, since I bought a sport version for my wife, but its a fad. Much like the Everglades.
The Raptor will be here for the entirety of the run.

Exactly, the Raptor will be around ... the Heritage won't.

We all look at things differently. I have a Braptor and so do you.
I am into the performance aspect of things.
If you love mustangs and you want to buy a new one, most would agree the GT500 would be the way to go granted you can afford one and its available. Since money isn't a topic in the original post, most mustang guys would pick the GT500 over a GT. Yes you can do XYZ to the GT but it will never be a GT500.
Those with a Braptor will tell you to stay with it, those with a Heritage will tell you to swap. Regardless of which is being said, the Braptor is far superior. That is not to say the Heritage is bad but its not a Braptor.
Unless you're really loving the look of the heritage, i cant think of any other reason to change.
Everyone has an opinion, that's just mine. Good luck with your decision.

to say it's superior in every category is subjective as well, it's just a different vehicle. That being said, the dash cluster in the raptor is wayyyy better than the HE (and other trims) and the 12" screen is a better option. both do cool things but just differently.
Hey swamp2, not a misperception, that is exactly how Ford positions it. Due to its extra width, there are a lot of trails that it will not be able to run, and the rock crawling capabilities are also limited by it's width.
