I know right. There should be an option. Lol

Nice job! Definitely considering getting one but watching the prices as I still feel they are overpriced.

I hear you there. I suspect however that with last year's unions strike it may be awhile. But you might find a deal out there if you stay vigilant.

As a toyo lover my 2023 wildtrak is perfect, just the lack of interior light.

I do wish there was better lighting. I do love my Wildtrak, don't get me wrong. I just think for could've done a little better, even if it raises the price a little.

I have a couple complaints with the 2023 Ford Bronco Wildtrak ; If you only have a couple consider yourself lucky

I'd like to hear what you're are? Any that I covered in the video? Some of these aren't necessarily complaints, but maybe surprised they didn't do better on.

The Toyota FJ has a curve around the spare tire built in the tailgate to allow you to open the window and access the back storage area without opening the door. They should have at least done that. It’s hard to believe “Wildtrack” is only a sticker on a $80,000 vehicle. Still though, Ford has done an awesome job bringing this vehicle to us.

I definitely agree. I love my Bronco, and some of my gripes are more life wishes than complaints. Thank you for watching my friend.

Interesting rig, and despite having a lot you like for your DD, they left you opportunity for improvement with modifications. Sounds like a win win !!!

I hear you Bro. I still throw parts at the LandCrab lol 😂

Good video, should help someone who hasn't owned a Bronco before. Getting ready to pick up a 2 Dr. WT, will be my second Bronco. As you said, most of your issues with the Bronco are all minor and can be fixed to your liking. Like the interior lights or lack of. Ford definately lacked in that area, fortunately, aftermarket interior lights can fix that, and what a difference when you open the door. Plenty of light. I actually like the 35" tires with the Black wheels/beadlock. As for the interior plastic, yes, you need to be very careful, it will scratch easily. Just like my Maverick. The plastic scratches easily. I'm aware of that so I haven't have that issue. Chips or cracks in the windshield, it's a matter of when, not if you will get a chip. I see it happening on any vehicle today on the road. I love my current leather seats, haven't had any issues with the seats during the summer. Anyway, good video and great looking Bronco.

Thank you, I do think this is the better daily driver that I've ever owned. Looking forward to getting it off road. Thank you for watching and commenting.

Thanks for the video. I have the same exact Bronco down to the color. For the windshield, you can PPF it. That's what a lot of people in my neck of the woods do for all of their cars, not just Broncos. Our guy charges about $500 for most cars. PPF won't stay perfect, but you won't have to replace the windshield, saving you that hassle and maintaining your factory seal. I agree with you on the window buttons. It's weird to have them there in the center arm console. I rode in a Mercedes ML series SUV and they have the window switches in the center also. Maybe Ford copied that? Jeep is worse, as theirs is on the center dash by the radio. Wheels are a personal pref, but I happen to like them. As for the interior lights, definitely dark in the cabin, especially the back seat, but they do make various third party light options to remedy that. Sorry to see all the scratches by the seat belt, same issue can happen in any Ford, given all of their cars use similar plastics somewhere in the cabin. My gripe is the factory rubberized floor mats. Didn't see if you have them, but my back seat mat has a really cool looking Bronco (horse) on it, but on the first time driving, my passengers scuffed the black areas of the mat with there shoes by just sitting in the middle back seat and it doesn't come out. Obviously this is an off-road vehicle designed to be beat up and a little scuff is nothing to think twice about, unless you're OCD. Lastly, the charging pad...I think that is an issue with our phones, not the pad itself. I could be wrong, but my iPhone gets super hot on any charging pad.

Thank you for the comment. Yes, I too have the rubberized floor mats. But I also have the carpeted ones, which maybe I'll use in the summer? Not sure about that yet. And true, the wheels are a personal thing, lots of people have said they like them. They aren't terrible by any means. I love the color. I have gotten so many compliments on it, hopefully you have also. My salesman told me that was actually an old color that Ford use to use on the escape and it wasn't real popular. I think it looks good on the Bronco. Thanks for watching my friend.

@@bardstables8909 I deliberately searched my area for this color when purchasing my Bronco. It seems to be less common where I live and I think it will stand the test of time. Some of the other specialty colors IMO will look very dated in a few years. I've had people literally stop me and ask the name of the color, so lots of compliments. I think HPR was first introduced in 2019, but don't quote me on that. Not sure on popularity, but I know they retired Rapid Red around that time. The other less common color where I live is Eruption Green which is pretty sweet too, but I like more pop in my colors. The heritage colors are very cool too and super rare.

I haven't seen this color yet where I live either. I think because it costs extra most people won't pay for it. I ordered mine just because I'm sick of seeing black, gray, silver, and white. The blue is nice, but it clashes with everything in my garage. Lol

I live in Florida and I have a 22 bronco wild track and my seats never get that hot

Well good for you. I never said I hated anything. Only that things can be improved upon. And if you think it's perfect, then congratulations to you.

See, that's what I mean. It's stupid, I mean it couldn't be that hard or cost that much more. It's not make or break, just the small details.

The ventilated seats would run into serious problems when a Bronco gets used "like it's supposed to be" with dirt and debris. The perforation clogs easily and is a pig to clean. It's a bummer they aren't offered on any of the trim levels (looking at you pavement princess Black Diamond) but as the owner of a 2013 Raptor with ventilated seats I can attest that they're susceptible to clogging so I get it I guess...

Nope, I got the right one. But they're isn't a vehicle made that's perfect. If there was, no update, refresh, or new model would ever be introduced.

Sounds like a bunch of nothing, little things on a newer model that need to be tweaked and improved upon! I have looked at the 2024 badlands and wildtrack, I like the wildtrack, but hate the badging and stickers as well, looks cheap and just something that will peel over time and fade. I think for the price point of these, they should have put in the 5.0 or the 3.0 400hp engine and no try to force everyone to the RAPTOR. While you can drive these with the 2.7L, they could use more ponies! I can't imagine driving one of these with the 4cyl, regardless of what they claim the HP is.
