I was going to buy new but prices are crazy, so I have found a couple used ones that I am interested in.

I am out of touch with specs and options by now so just looking for opinions, hopefully somebody has one.......:wink:

2022 Ford Bronco Badlands 2.3ltr - 93000 km - $45 000 CAD
VIN: 1FMEE5DH8NLB27410

or

2023 Ford Bronco Wildtrak 2.7ltr - 13000 km - $64 000 CAD
VIN: 1FMEE5DP1PLB12287

Sorry for the Canadian lingo


Just looking for the main differences, I have a RZR for fun so the Bronco will be a daily driver with probably no off-roading.......

Yeah both of those are the heavy off road trim packages; not trying to dissuade you, just making sure you realize y ou could do something like an Outer Banks and get all the techy daily driver stuff but save a bit of cash.

That said, the WildTrak has the HOSS 3 Fox suspension from the factory that is nice for off road and daily driving... that with the v6 would be nice.

(nothing wrong the the i4, but honestly, unless you are getting the manual trans, get the v6)

Important to know if the Badlands is with or without Sasquatch package. Because of price, i'm assuming without.

I'd go with the Wildtrak purely because of the low miles (errr, km's). It comes with sas package and the fox shocks, which are an improvement over Bilsteins (especiallyon the road, imo).

Either engine is more than capable. Performance tunes are available for each if you need more power.

But for your stated purpose (daily driven on pavement, no off-roading), the WT is overkill. But so is the BL, even without sas, so pick the color you like better. 😂

Badlands does have SAS.

I wasn't sure if the Wildtrack did or not.

Both the same color....

I like the beefy off-road look, RZR has 35's, my Ram has 35's...so Bronco might get 35s......

Sasquatch is standard on all Wildtraks
Edit: Nevermind, see that was already mentioned above.

Sas package means both should have 35's now. Black beadlock capable wheels standard on WT, silver beadlock rings on the BL sas or painted gray non-beadlock (Everglades) wheels were optional.

BL should have factory rock sliders which limit the step options if you don't want to remove them.

Black grill on the WT, gray on the BL.

Those are the primary differences I can think of between the 2 trims aside from Hoss 2 vs 3.

You are correct on all of that now that I look at them beside each other.

Either of those will be great for driving to the mall.
You could save more money by getting a Base model and putting 35s on it.

Have you tried to find a new leftover '24? Crazy deals on those right now, if you can find one.

No crazy deals up here.

Used 2024 Badlands is still $64000 CAD = $47 000 USD ish

No local left over 2024s

WT looks like a better deal. These are the "asking" prices, right? I would do some heavy negotiation on that unit. Sold at that price, WT is what's known in the car sales world, a "five pounder" (speaking in the real American money). 47K (US) OTD should be your target (first offer from you should be less of course). VERY doable.

Not a lot of options up here, used or new. I have never seen a base model for sale.

Asking prices at "stealerships" yes. Not selling prices.

if your main requirement is just to have 35s, you can get just about any trim that has the SAS package. might open up more options at different price points doing that instead of focusing only on the more offroad targeted models that you wont really be using for that purpose anyways.

Badlands wash out interior, MGV seats, sway bar disconnect.

Wildtrac carpet

As everyone has said, both are overkill for street use as the options are focused on off-road use.

35s are not required, would just match everything else except the Hyundai...for now :unsure:

Overkill for the street, yes. But just look proper IMO. And would go off-road occasionally but nothing crazy.
