the heated seats actually come in the mid package but I'm with you I like the high package with the 12 inch screen some of the other features and the mirror lights but I also like the leather also and I've had those built up but I just don't know where to stop I could keep going with all of the options and so when I go conservative I stick with mid package and that available on bb
Totally agree. It's tempting to "work" on a poverty trim Bronco over time. If I owned a decent 60s-70s Bronco, I'd be doing the same, so I shouldn't hesitate, but my wife is used to the options-heavy 4Runner she drives now, so I think I have to find a healthy balance somewhere between BD and BL.

Your point on the material quality is being ignored by most. It’s something that many aren’t thinking about since they can’t physically sit in both trims and compare. The higher level trims are going to be much nicer inside even in equivalent packages.
But it'd be nice to have proof of this, it surely makes common sense, but doesn't seem to be written?

I agree with you. I know that I’ve heard of the extra “soft materials” in the badlands during some of the videos that have been posted but nothing in writing.

The Big Bend gets the leather wrapped steering wheel which is really nice.

I believe WT has LED taillights. Not sure if Big Bend will with the upgraded headlights.

Also, you get the amazing WT digicam seats. There should really be a sarcasm font.
With that being said, I'm going WT because the regular squatch wheels are too flashy for me with the beauty ring and I want high or lux package. I'm also buying seat covers for the digicam lol

I haven't investigated and priced that closely yet, but a Big Bend made into a some-what Wildtrak clone (minus the Baja goat mode, hood decal, and black painted exterior stuff), comes in around $2k cheaper than a Wildtrack.

I figured the Black modular top into both, just for kicks. My reservation is for a Wildtrak, originally, but I've been all over the place since mid-December and have actually considered going the route I just mentioned, on Big Bend.
Same here ... more confused now... Have WildTrak reservation, now 2nd guessing

I was having the same debate, Big Bend or Wild Trak. I went with Big Bend. I upgraded the lights, went with tan seats, SAS, 2.7, Mid package. I don't need a shiny black grille, color match door handles, hood decal. I'm happy with my decision. Save the money for accessories.

thanks! however, just personally still on the fence, my budget allows the Big Bend build with head lights, mid, sas, 2.7, TWO TOPS, acc switches, floor mats, towing OR:
Wildtrack, floor mats, High package, and towing, bout the same price!! but i like the door handles, and black ring on the sas wheels! Of course would still need to get soft top for wildtrack. oh well, looks like none of it will be 2021 for me so still time to torture myself!
