Potential Purchase - 2023 Wildtrak

[Reddout99]

I've been looking at a lot of Broncos lately, used and most recently, a new Base with the Sasquatch package. I've driven a used Badlands w/ Sasquatch and a Wildtrak and now the new Base. I like the idea of something new, but the Base is lacking quite a few of the creature comforts I've grown accustomed to (in particular, heated seats, steering wheel that are almost a necessity out here in the Midwest winters) and at a price of around $47k from a local dealership doesn't sound too bad.
I decided to continue to look at used and I've been doing a search for a newer Wildtrak with relatively low miles (under 25k) and found something that piqued my interest.
It's a 2023 Wildtrak with 20k miles in Texas. They're asking $48k. It's around a 9 hour drive for me to take a look at it, but it looks really good from the pics. Carfax is clean except for the rearview camera replacement. Weird that it shows 3 owners though
I still need to need to call them on Monday.
Although I've been looking and studying on these pretty hard for a couple weeks, I'm still a newbie. I'd appreciate any feedback from those that have had theirs for quite a while.

Thanks, Bob

If you are into it call and get the deal closed. Sounds nice.

Are you looking at 2 door or 4 door Broncos? I’ve seen a number of 2 door Broncos that are owned for a couple of weeks according to the Carfax report. That’s a big tax hit for a what’s essentially a rental.

Buy two.

4 doors, I know, I wonder what the backstory is?

I think I need to take the drive down there to be sure that everything is good on it. It's about a 9 hour drive. Thinking about renting a car for the trip down. They'll ship anywhere for $1 a mile. Its about 650 miles.

Sounds like you know if the price is right compared to your other options you have seen. I say if it has everything your looking for, go drive it. Carfax was good. 20k miles is basically like new, without the depreciation. I got my 2021 last July and had 1,999 miles on it. The owner was a retiree. Deals are out there if you have time and willing to look, which sounds like you are.

What city/dealer in Texas? Maybe one of us around here can take a look at it.
I got a used 22 WT in Dec 23, with 9K miles. Older lady bought it, and after driving it a year, it was too much of a struggle to get in and out, lol.

It shows Carrollton, so D/FW Metroplex

Surely someone on here can look at it. I'd offer, but that's several hours south of me...and I'm STILL in Texas...

Looks like a shuffle between dealerships on this one...

For sure. I wonder if it was a demo or something. Maybe the managers drove it?

Thanks, that would be a good idea if someone was in the area

Have used Bronco prices gone up? That's about what I paid for my wife's CPO '23 Wildtrak over a year ago. Had similar miles. That seems too expensive, to me.

I own a 2023 Bronco Wildtrak and love both its functionality and conveniences (heated seats, steering etc.)
What would concern me the most about the Texas Wildtrak is the CarFax reported three (3) owners with only 20,000 miles. Something just doesnt add up there in my view.

Keep in mind that if a person bought it, defaulted on loan, and then the dealer bought it at auction, that's three “owners”.
