The West branch of the Deleware River is what you are looking for if it is trout you are after. See the link below from the NSY Dept of Environmental Conservation.

Also, in regards to really crowded waters, if you are going...
I cast another vote for non-squatch Badlands takeoffs. I am sensitive to road noise and don't mind the KO2s at all. Plus in my opinion stock badlands wheels look pretty good. Bet you can find a complete set of next-to-new tires and rims for around $1200 or so. You won't do tires and rims...
^^^^^^^ This is the way.
Except I don't think you can currently order a manual right now. Maybe again for MY 2024, but for now I think it is not going to happen for you.
Time to move on. Find one on a lot somewhere and see if you can make a deal. Your ordered unit is gone, and I doubt you have much if any recourse. Sorry to be a Debbie downer but the last step in grieving is acceptance and hope. The sooner you get there the better.
20k trouble-free miles with mine. Love it. SUper fun to drive. No noise, at least that I can hear, but my hearing is pretty bad. Maybe ignorance is bliss? LOL.
While I cannot help with the lead time question, I can tell you I drove by the new car holding lot in Selkirk the other day and there are a LOT of vehicles there, including at least one white bronco that I was able to see as I drove past at 50 mph.
This is the thread I referenced. Lots of normal B6G arguing and whatnot but worth a read. It looks like it may have only bent the hitch and not the cross member, but the point about big leverage force with big drop drawbars is still valid...
I use a longer drawbar rather than an extension. The product linked below allows my sled trailer to hook up no problem (stock non-squatch badlands with factory 33" spare). It also does not create as large a vertical lever as some of the drawbars with a big drop. Somewhere on here is a...
You did not tighten the door bolts sufficiently. It is supposed to make those sounds as an audible indicator the door bolts are not tightened properly. Tighten them up and the sound goes away.
$45,300 is a lot for a trade-in number on a base in 2023. That sounds like they are using the 2022 blue book. LOL. I would not be surprised to see that number shrink dramatically once you sit down with the dealer.
