No offense to OP, but his story reads like an AI bot trained on text of the B6G forum, and it's hilarious.

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!!

No part of his story seems credible.
The only thing “credible” about OP’s post is the quality of the troll job he executed. I have to admit, this is one of the best trolls I’ve seen since joining B6G, probably in the 90th percentile of all trolls. Congrats to OP on getting 8 pages of responses!

Don't know why anyone's ragging on the house. A house like that in the middle of nowhere is worth peanuts. Location Location Location.

Obviously, it's a troll-generated, baked-in history for the purpose of selling the WT . The fact that so many didn't get any of this illustrates the intelligence level of the average Bronco purchaser.

No problem. Many here don’t seem to understand how real estate works, likely still living in their parents basements.

My info will give them a leg up once they venture forth into the world.

You never know, there are some people on here who are actually serious about the ridiculous things that they write.

'Horror Story'.....yeah, you'll be scarred for life.
Myopic much?

Yes, but every Russian Tank comes with a free PKM and AK-12, AND you won't be caring about missing a sway bar disconnect when you run over a jeep or Bronco Sport.

Par for the course. I have been waiting nearly 2 years, got a dealer transfer and the new dealer can't put the order in until FMC puts them in "cue", which after 4 months no one has been able to do!! What a cluster. Thats what being a loyal Ford buyer gets you...nada!

I don't envy your problem, but I have to say the red in your picture on my monitor looks incredible. I traded a Rock Lobster Wrangler and purchased a Cyber Orange because the Red on the website didn't look so hot.

Good Luck with whatever you end up doing. No sway bar disconnect on the Wildtrak though. I love my loaded Badlands so far.
