Is a 2022 Ford Bronco Wildtrak worth buying or a big MISTAKE?

What did we do here on Raiti's Rides? Let me go over with you how this NEW 2022 Bronco Wildtrak came to be and why we decided to purchase it. Did we consider a Jeep Wrangler or Toyota 4runner TRD Pro? Plus, what about the stories of the 2.7L Ecoboost blowing up. Is buying a 2022 Ford Bronco Wildtrak a good idea or a big MISTAKE?

From the bottom of my heart I want to say THANK YOU to the whole Raiti's Rides family! We seriously can't do it without YOU!

[sox]

Dude, I just love watching your videos. I never considered myself a car guy, but I've just become obsessed watching Raiti's Rides. Thank you so much for all that you (and Lori!) do.

I watch your videos to gain insight on vehicles i could potentially see myself purchasing, you often give good advice when it comes to value in comparison amongst vehicles. I think reviewing cars that are generally more obtainable is wise as people like myself watch these videos to be able to make an informed purchase when spending tens of thousands of dollars on a vehicle we will be living with for years to come.

I bought a four-door 2022 bronco wild trak in velocity blue and absolutely love it. I get stopped at Home Depot and numerous other parking lots with people wanting to know more about it. I love driving it to work. I got the soft top and no regrets. Will most likely buy a aftermarket black hard top after they have been test it out. I like building things and have three kids and therefore the four-door was a must as I needed the space.

Congrats on this beast of suv you got here joe! That green fits this bronco perfectly! You’ll have a lot of fun with it!

I love the "obtainable" has appeal to a wider audience. Your reviews are top notch. Plus, I want a bronco in the same specs. No mistake at all

I just saw a new BRONCO on the streets of Regina Saskatchewan Canada. It looked so good...looked so solid. Congratulations on your new purchase.

Joe, what a breath of fresh air this video is. I loved how candid you were about your experience. I think it’s a fantastic idea to get a different type of vehicle than what you are used to.

I would also love to hear about how your Shelby and ZL1 ownership is going.

I’d also be interested in you getting the new Nissan Z.

I knew it!!! This is awesome!!! Love the color and the set-up!!! Congratulations to you and Lori, Joe!!! All the best!!!

Thank you. This was one of your best reviews and truly from the heart, I like you ordered my two door wildtrack at the inception and just received it about a month ago. Your not crazy because the two door is vastly cooler in appearance then the four door. I also opted for the larger engine and it killed me not going for the manual, I just could not pass up all that torque. Now two learn from you of possible engine failure with or choice caused me to jump out of my chair. Tomorrow, my first call of the day is to my dealer for further info.
Keep on doing what you do best.
Thanks again
Jay

My 2 door Base manual "zonks"...
1. The stereo has ZERO bass and needs an amp and sub.
2. Why a hood prop Ford? Had to buy aftermarket hood struts
3.The back up camera is very poor quality
4. The headlights just come on after about 30 to 60 minutes and then shut off.
5. Having to buy a front license plate relocation kit.
Other than those little nitpicky things, I absolutely love my Bronco! Can't wait to hear your likes and zonks.

My son & I love your channel! We are moving from Canada to FLA shortly and are buying a franchise based in St Pete's and coincidentally drove past Walker Ford on our trip a couple of weeks ago. My son recognized it right away. We plan on buying a Bronco and your Bronco vids have been a big help with our decision. Thx to you all at the Raiti Family!

[pdad]

Love the idea! We ordered our fully loaded Badlands back in October of 2021. Even if we don’t get it until 2023, I know it will be worth the wait.

Great idea regarding ownership review! Perhaps a pros & cons “should you tune your ford bronco” or leave it stock video. Whether for more performance or better gas mileage. Alway enjoy watching your videos. I’ve seen your channel grow throughout the years. 👏🏼

[amyjohnson]

We are considering purchasing a Bronco (4 door) down the road and would love to see the ownership of one. Love the new idea.

So glad you wound up getting a Bronco! Welcome to the family! I opted for a the Big Bend, 2 door in a manual with the signature, LEDs. I wanted to keep it under $40K, and I definitely ended up doing so (mine did have the roof issue, so it was delayed over the summer and took delivery last Oct). With that, you did NOT make a mistake - I freaking, love my Bronco, its been flawless since I picked it up and have zero regrets!

[rogerfischer]

I'm still waiting for my Bronco, 1 year 3 months. You did the right thing ordering your Wildtrack, it's so sharp, and as far as Bronco content, bring it on, you both do a wonderful job.

[CrankyPants]

This video shows exactly how you are so special among the entire YouTube auto family. Very passionate, always productive with love and sincere and truthful messages that delivers to hearts and makes every viewer feel related and comfortable. I absolutely enjoy watching every video you made. Buying a car is difficult (especially in this current market), you’ll need to do the research, but you also need to feel that temperature from a human being, and that is exactly why we are following and watching you. Keep it up! Much love and respect to Joe and Lori.

I ordered my 4 door 6ltr in Sept of 2020, just arrived this week. I rejected it and here is why. The Bronco Video Hype and the Aesthetics of the Bronco were extremely appealing and hot. I turned on the engine and it was a typical Ford POS engine, sounded like my wife's escape. Complete contradiction and not worth $50k. I did feel like you were rationalizing the valve issues and the rooftop issues they had/are having. At the end of the day Ford owns the build, so you can't blame the suppliers. After i tested the Bronco i got back into my 2021 Challenger R/T Scat Pack and the world was good once again. You guys do a great job, keep it up.
