Badlands vs. Wildtrak

[WyoBronc]

If you enjoy scorching your ass in the Florida summer sun, go with the BL and vinyl seats. You do know that with the WT you can have nice high end carpet and washout all weather floor mats correct?
You will never use the one distinctive feature of the badlands (swaybar disco) in Florida……however, everyone will at some point choose to fly down a back road at speed….and HOSS 3.0 will make that experience more pleasurable. Plus, why mess with FORscan to get sport mode when the WT comes stock with it.
And lastly, the 2dr WT with its blacked out appearance is easily the most attractive Bronco.

have a HOSS wildtrak and the on road handling is amazing, looking forward to many off road adventures. The leather is comfortable and equivalent to tremor f150 without getting overly hot. Not much rock crawling around here but plenty of fire roads getting to amazing fishing and hunting spots!

Most likely the type of trails I’ll be doing also for the same purpose, glad to hear the on road handling is awesome! I actually like the look of sandstone and navy pier interior as well and plan to get the leather

I have a Wildtrak. I have also done off roading in a BL. I have rock crawled in both. If rock crawling is not what you’ll be doing, then I would get the WT. While I really like the MGV, I like the leather and carpet as well. The carpet also helps with cabin noise. Unless you’re really going to use it, the sway bar disconnect just adds weight and is something else to break.

I think it can come down to your individual use cases... or you may just want what you want! I personally think that the Wildtrak was a tad less compelling of an offering until the HOSS 3.0 package was released. If I were doing a Wildtrak build it would include the HOSS 3.0, standard front bumper to keep it a little lighter, and set of side steps.

To me the HOSS 3.0 steering rack and tie rods are worth more than any interior or auto sway bar disconnect...honesty I think the badlands is way overrated (who really hoses out their vehicle?) for hot sticky vinyl.

Badlands without the Sasquatch will conquer anything you throw at it. Plus, it is just the coolest Bronco made. ( Honorable mention to the Base 2D with Sasquatch)

I need to understand this statement. Minus the sway bar disconnect what makes it coolest bronco made?

I went with the badlands because it has everything most folks would need to go off the beaten path with out having to worry about damaging the bronco. If the trail gets rocky, no biggie

I'm with you on the steering rack/tie rods however really wish I could get washouts, for the simple fact that it's not carpet.....

the disqualifier of Wildtrack for me, was the terrible digital camouflage interior. I'm not some yahoo pretending to be some tactical military bro ... I don't want camo on my seats. I went with the Badlands Sasquatch
