WildTrack or Badlands!!

[sprdv1]

Your opinions on which one you think is the better of the 2. Aware of the disconnect on the Badlands, but have been told the Wildtrack is better outside of that lol

Will likely do just mild wheeling. NOT going to scratch up a $60K plus NEW vehicle LOL

Weighing options, maybe I'll jump in the market after I figure out my move from MO to TX.....

Gracias! Hope everyone is well and have a GREAT WEEK!!

What can I say? I love my Badlands but haven't owned a Wildtrack.

I wanted sway bar disconnect and a wash out floor more than Baja mode(which I added to out Badlands anyway with Forscan) and carpet. HOSS 3 comes standard on the Wildtrak now though, that is a plus.

Like okie4570 said, the Hoss 3 is exclusive on the Wildtrack but it might depend on when you want the Bronco.
Ford is telling folks to stay away from anything Sasquatch package, Lux. package, and 4-door hardtop so a Badlands on 33's might be the one that would be built the soonest. 2-door hardtop is ok because that is the only option.

I love my WT, bought because I wanted it all and I missed out on the First Edition. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them, you just build it like you want. I have a 2 door and it sucks there isn't a better option for a soft top. But I know at some point there will be one and I will buy it. I am holding out for an electric one for the wife.

I definitely don't mind waiting on a hard top Keep the $$ in my pocket a little bit longer at least lol

yes sir, definitely.

Good points, just have to dig in on options once I'm ready to pull the trigger. in the meantime can just keep drooling over everyone else's lol

Looks like things will be tough for a while still.

I would go Badlands. Rock rails are standard, sway bard disconnect standard, wash out floors are standard (as long as you dont get leather seats), Metal bumpers front and rear, metal skid plates. Non SAS come with BFG All Terrains and Bilstien Shocks. (there is enough room to squeeze 35s with no lift or just a 1" spacer). I personally prefer the grill and headlights on the Badlands. The Wildtrack is only available with leather or cloth seats (no MGV) more tech stuff so that can be a plus or a minus depending how you look at it. I had a badlands I ordered and really liked it but traded it for a two door black diamond. I really didnt need another 4 door (my wife already had her 4 door Black diamond). Take a look at the black diamond trim it is kind of a Badlands light version.

will do and good points.. Since the MPG in these aren't that great to begin with, prob will lean towards lift, 37s to give it that killer Stance

Somewhere north of austin where the kids are nearby. "not austin" though Liberty Hill, Depends if I can find the "right" property

That means we can meet up each winter while I am in Port Aransas from January through March. Cool.

 

[sprdv1]

heck yeah brother.. Now I got to make it happen

I chose the badlands over wildtrak because it has all of the sasquatch features (swabar disconnect etc) that you'd get in a wildtrak for less cost. I also wanted the 2.3 manual and 33' M/T's to make it more of a dual purpose rig, which I don't think is a combo you can get on wildtrak.
