Which Is Better? Ford Bronco or Jeep? My completely Biased Opinion & Review of the Jeep Rubicon 392
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- I have been an owner of my 2021+ Ford Bronco for almost 2 years, and I am told all the time that Jeeps are better. Well, are they? I put this Jeep to the test as Mom-Mobile for a few weeks to see if it measured up to my expectations as a daily driver. Am I a converted Jeep-lover? Watch and see! If you see yourself butt-hurt after this video, I highly recommend this cream 👉🏼 amzn.to/3nVcXAo

clearly you have no idea of offroading.. you should do makeup kit comparison. Just take it to the trail and you would know why Jeep is better.
Do you need some ice for your butt?
Dang, my man needs something to clear up that rash... Don’t worry, I can help! amzn.to/3nVcXAo
@@BuckleUpButtercupTV You tell them, we know the 392 is not an off-roader.
Jeep is also a fiat Chrysler which is complete junk. Bronco all day long and looks 10 times better then a Jeep
Why so salty damn😂
I'm a Ford employee and soon to be Bronco (WildTrak) owner, I agree with most of your review with just a small hiccup or two. The sound system you mentioned in the "stock" Bronco being subpar- I ordered my Bronco with the lux pkg. Included is a far superior premium b&o 10 speaker with subwoofer sound system. in addition that Jeep interior looks far outdated compared to the classy Bronco interior- that tiny screen is a joke. My Bronco is scheduled for production in a few weeks (week of (7/19) from now as of this writing (7/2). It's okay to be a proud Jeep fan, there's plenty of history involved- but there hasn't really been any serious competition for Jeeps Wrangler or Rubicon except for Toyotas long since discontinued FJ until recently with the Ford Bronco. I can't wait to get mine, so Bronco is visually more appealing, more user friendly inside and out, and more advanced in many ways both on and off-road. in addition, Jeep vehicles look good in the outside, but that's it. I've heard many horror stories regarding their quality and reliability. in the past I always wanted one (Wrangler), but the reliability issues always scared me away. More horsepower is not really a deal breaker for me, I've owned a couple Taurus SHO's in the past... with those came more speeding tickets. I'm not looking to repeat that. At the end when you mentioned the new Bronco will (hopefully for their sake) make Jeep a better brand- you hit the nail on the head. I was thinking the same thing.
fantastic review though! smart kids! your husband is a lucky guy! 👍
I hope the quality of the B&O is better for you than I have in mine. I have a 2022 with Lux pkg and my subwoofer buzzes pretty bad if I try to put the volume up over 15. The sound all around isn't that well balanced but it's ok. I already had it in to have checked and they added more insulation, but nothing really changed. I'm leasing mine and will likely trade it at the end. Otherwise, it's an awesome vehicle and you'll enjoy it! The 2.7 engine is awesome!
@@CalgaryGuy71 thank you big time! I've heard similar stories about Bronco owners even changing various components of the b&o sound system because of various reasons similar to what you say. I love my music (mostly loud lol) and if I have to do a few upgrades to get the sound quality where I want it to be if the reviews are what they say, then so be it I guess. At least I'll be expecting it. I like your screen name, I'm a Dad with a cat too. Anyhoo, thanks again brother! 🤜🤛
The two vehicles are similar but aren’t at the same time. I own a Jeep JK and will freely admit that the Bronco is probably the better daily driver. A big part of it is the independent suspension vs the solid axel. On off-road trails like rock crawling and the like, Jeep has a slight edge. The Bronco had an edge in more desert/dune, I think. I’m glad Bronco is giving some good competition to Jeep and hope it leads to some friendly competition and drive for both vehicles to improve.
I agree. Jeep never really had a lot of competition, I think it will benefit everyone!
As a Bronco owner I find it nice that I can agree with a Jeep guy. I love off-roading. And the Bronco is competitive in the dirt. But the Jeep is better in the difficult stuff. But no matter how much I go OffRoad at every opportunity more than 80% of my miles will be on pavement. Bronco wins on the highway. One other thing… interior of the Bronco is much roomier for a big guy like me.
I could give a chit about the electronics on either vehicle, I wish we had a choice of a basic 4WD like the new Toyota Landcruiser
Love the video but I was hoping to hear some gas comparisons? How do they compare that way?
I owned a 97 Jeep , it was ok at best , just seemed very unrefined. It was very small in the interior. It was a two door. It was just something to have a little off road fun but the steering drove me bonkers on the oversteer. It was just bad. It rode really bad , the insulation was horrible for road noise. Was it capable? Sure , but I was not off roading in it every day like the Jeep fan boys do. I was mainly working at the prison and driving it there. Off road maybe 6 times over a year and a half before I got rid of it. Now that I own a Bronco , I could off road in it daily , like a Jeep fanboy but if I chose not to do that. I could enjoy a fairly quiet cabin , and cruise on the highway in comfort. Its a solid performer , and for it having been so long for Ford to do anything to compete with Jeep. I do got to say , they really did a number on Jeep for the first iteration in a segment they will probably continue to top Jeep in , and I hope they do it for years to come. Jeeps had it monopoly long enough.
Here’s a little secret: most of these jeep fanboys have barely even touched gravel, let alone offroad everyday.
@Kricket _ yeah I know , I've heard the mall crawler thing over and over....lol so I figured I would add in the sarcasm .....almost all of them use a jeep the same way.
A better comparison would be with the Raptor
Still the things I mentioned are the same with a raptor.
The jeep is better off road, the bronco is better as a daily.
Well done Krista.
Thank you!

My favorite answer MUSTANG
Yes 👍🏼 🙌🏼
don't worry, the bronco came and went, it will soon be discontinued again
If you need the diaper rash ointment link, I have it
@@BuckleUpButtercupTV clearly you’re very sensitive to any comment that is not praising the bronco, so I’m sure you need all the diaper rash cream you can have, so you can keep the link, for the sensitivity cos I’m sure more opinions from other folks will be coming your way
Jeep looks like a 1940 Ford Jeep
😂
All I'm hearing is that you just got a jeep with a Ford emblem and you are just trying to convince yourself that it not a poor man's jeep..and all the things you were complaining about have been updated with the new 24 model
I suggest looking into the cream I recommend in the description.
@@BuckleUpButtercupTV what are you talking about.. i couldn't watch the hole damn thing because you were just talking about nothing relevant
@@jermason8594 might not be relevant for you but she bought up some good points
Both are good neither is perfect pick the one you like best and drive it and love it, I did and I love my 2 door badlands!
🤩
I just wish Ford didnt name the Bronco sport a Bronco, its a completely different car
Yea the sport is terrible don’t like it at all
Picitiny rail huh! Were you hiding the guns? I have had 4 jeeps since '89,and just bought the bronco. The bronco by far is a much better ride, the tech is a small upgrade from the jeep. My Hyundai pallisade by far has the best tech going. My wife likes the jeeps open air, but says the broncos ride is so smooth it dont leave her with black eyes. Another great video
I’m all for no black eyes 😊
Start off by saying I’ve had four Jeeps in a row. But this week I traded in the ‘21 Rubicon for a Bronco so I have some experience with this. Both are very different off-roaders. But the Jeep ride hands down is way worse. Mostly from a comfort point of view. Jeep needs to rethink their seats for one. I’ve never had an issue with wandering so not sure what people talk about. But for now I like the more modern aspects of the Bronco. Jeep needs to catch up on this stuff tbh.
I haven’t driven a jeep Off-road, which is why I based this for everyday use. I think both are great vehicles, but I would agree the Bronco is much better for daily driving than the Jeep!
I've had two Jeeps over the last couple of decades. Got a Bronco about two weeks ago. The Bronco is way better for a daily driver. She is right. There isn't even a comparison.
I agree :)
Awesome review. Up front honest and direct. I agree with you. I too like Jeeps but it seems that Jeep didn’t thoroughly check the outdated infotainment systems as well as comfort.
I heard a podcast that gave a history lesson of the Bronco and how Ford researched and developed their own upgrades. . I.e: doors with mirrors not attached. Storage of the roofs: doors.
Indeed Bronco will make Jeep better . Let’s hope Ford continues to evolve as well.
The infotainment system is where I was really surprised of it’s lack of luster. I think the “competition” of both is great for either side. It will only benefit the consumer!
Great review. Hardcore "jeep" enthusiasts will not admit the Bronco is a better daily driver. Jeep guys would kill me. But Jeep needs an IFS version of their wrangler. You wouldn't see so many on the used car lot. many people love the idea of a jeep. But the road manners are horrendous. Most jeep owners who claim they "off road", go down to the beach, which could be accomplished in a jeep compass :D
“Biased” is correct lol
No matter which there is always comprises. My Bronco does everything I could ask for and more. Would I like cup holders and vents in the back? Sure but it’s not a deal breaker. I really would like some easy options for putting a winch on the front of a 2.7 L badlands Sasquatch but I haven’t found a big need for it although we did use my buddies about 25 times last trip 🤣
That means your having fun 🤩
However, you didn't really compare performance or the engines. There is something to be said for a V8 hemi. Otherwise, I agree. The Bronco wins overall hands down. My wife drives our Bronco Badlands Sasquatch, Lux, etc. I wanted a Bronco, but I had a GMC AT4 that was less than a year old..... so I talked her into getting the Bronco. She absolutely loves it. You and Mitchell need to do more collabs. That was lots of fun. Best wishes.
I didn’t do engine, cuz obviously 392 is faster… one funny thing is this has 5k miles on it and Jim found a leak, so I tried to leave that part out of it for now.
Wait just a ding dong minut... THat there Jeep with its living axles is just teh best durn 4-wheeler out ther. It dont need no goat modes cuz it is the Goat. THat 800hp 392 will get it over some big time rocks faster than anythin. Dont need no fancy dash buckets for storing stuff cause they just gonna get bounced outta there anyway. That jiggly wiggle pitch and roll ride is like a free day at the fair and keeps me from fallin asleep if Ive drank too much. Go jeep.
☺️☺️
Rofl this comment is classic
My son has a 2 door 2017 JK Willys and I have the 4 door 2021 Bronco Badlands with the Sasquatch. We have extensively modified and tested the Jeep which has been both fun and satisfyingly. I am afraid to modify the Bronco too much and upset what quite possibly may be the most perfectly balanced machine. I can easily smoke the Jeep in the desert too. My son added the sport mode and now the Bronco is seriously quick. We carry extra fuel because the Jeep has a smaller gas tank. However, the JK can rock crawl moderately better. The Bronco's longer wheel base is begging for 37's and a quality lift to equal or exceed the Jeep's Billy goat capability. Ford has done an amazing job on the Bronco right out of the gate. For example (compared to the Jeep): mirror location, trail turn assist, the goat mode dial, aux switches, adding extra wires in key locations, on road manners, trail cam and now the new Ford off-road app. I give the nod to the Bronco- just don't tell my son. BTW: I really do enjoy watching your videos and think you do a very good job.
Thank you 😊
I love my American cars but the new Toyota Land Cruiser is out and the Lexus that’s the equivalent to the land cruiser, and those things are pretty badass as far as the four-wheel-drive modes that come in those where I work we drive them off of the ship so I’ve gotten to drive one firsthand and they’re not that bad. Maybe you should do a little tester or comparison to those compare the bronco to each one of those.
I had a JKU and loved loved it. But I've had 5 full size Broncos in the past and since I'm in the market to get myself some new wheels...... I'm going Badlands. I KNOW the Jeep beats the Bronco in some regards but i want to give it a shot. I'm bummed about not getting a solid axle above any other concerns. The width of the Bronco is a concern but i don't think that one will bother me much
The jeep looks better!
M glad you repeatedly pointed out that you are biased towards the vehicle and an all out bronco fan. Because otherwise this review makes no sense.
On jeep, External doorless mirror a factory/mopar option with several cheap mods also available. While you didn't like that its an option, but didn't mention anything about your 3rd party bumper in bronco to accommodate a winch. Which is a simple add on from mopar in jeep.
While you rightfully praised bronco dashboard features, there was no mention off sloppy and cheap plastic build quality unlike the jeep.
2/3 kids were happy with jeep backseat with valid points but you just declared that they clearly love Bronco as a vehicle.
Also, Jeep 2024 has been announced and its all over the internet and the order page should be up anytime. It upgrades quiet few things that you mentioned here. So to release this review this late with no mention of upgrade list that everyone knows about seems odd.
I agree that Bronco sales have really pushed the Jeep to improvise and release features that they were sleeping on
Also, there are a lot more comparison points like ease of removing doors between the 2, gas mileage (since its a daily driver) etc etc.
I suggest looking into the cream I recommend in the description.
@@BuckleUpButtercupTV Save the cream for your axels , Buttercup !
No real logic to this review ... just brand bashing. Broncos are good but your video isn't.
Good review. Nice touch with the kids. Thanks.
Thanks!
That's not a factory oem bumper on your bronco, right?
Correct
@@BuckleUpButtercupTV I caught the install video not long after I posted this question/comment :)
the jeep is about 6" smaller in inside width. and not as much leg room as bronco
I own both a 24 Wrangler JLU and a 23 Badlands Sas and 1000% the bronco is better on the road. It handles better, steers better and the extra interior space is a huge plus. Now the wrangler feels a bit more nimble but again handling while cruising is not the same as being nimble around the back streets. The wrangler feels lighter and easier to park, but thats about it. Offroad it feels like it has a smaller more manageable foot print, but the bronco feels HUGE on the trail. They both even eachother out. But if you are a big person or have a family of 5, get the bronco for the extra room. You will need it. If you are not a family of 5 or more, or you are a smaller person(s), the jeep is great.
Great opinion!
OMG girl learn about the Jeeps before you compare
and if you go off road with a bronco , your likely to snap a tie rod
You should really look into this: amzn.to/41Y8Hy1
😂
Enjoyed your review
Thank you
Great review. The only thing that bothered me was the size of the screen issue. Seriously how big of a screen do you need in a vehicle. People want 60" TV's jammed into their dashboards and no wonder nobody is paying attention to the road anymore. I traded my Ford F150 in for a 2023 Gladiator Mojave and the screen is perfect in my opinion. Shows me all the info I need. If you need a bigger screen move up to a 2024 model they have a 12" which wasn't enough of an upgrade to get me to buy the 2024 over the 2023 which I saved $13000 on.
I enjoy the big screen, easy to see the maps :) and is great for off road!
@@BuckleUpButtercupTV Put your readers on!!!! 😜
Where do you get those white letters for the grill?

you truly are a Bronco Babe.
Always :)
Yup Bronco II owner loved that Ford. Drove army willies jeeps.. owned Cherokee sport liberty and GC Laredo F 150.. . drove army cut vee chev k10 diesel dodge 1500s Stance on Broncs good wheels steering set up on roads better.. sold jeeps had a pioneer as a demo.. the suv jeeps are set up for rural fine best for both is rough country dirt roads and snow
☺️
Great review all these keep people swear they off-road so much but, I see many are just daily drivers lol. Plus they are all over the place and don’t stand out like the bronco does. Hell, OJ made the police not hit him because he was in a bronco!!!! If he had a jeep they would have crashed him out 😂
😂😂😂😂
Jeep did it first. Goat modes don't teach you how to drive. They're a gimmick. I prefer the 4x4 shift lever. Analog is better. Doesn't require a relay that could go bad on a trail.
I've owned a jeep and rock crawled with it. I needed a truck and sold it. (Regretted it)
Bought the wife a Bronco. Perfect for her and how she is gonna drive it.
Goat modes don’t teach you how to drive, but it Programs the tachometer to REV high in sport mode giving me boost faster 😄
the goat is not a gimmick.
Great review, are you still getting a Badlands or are you keeping Buttercup?
Still getting the badlands, just waiting for it to get delivered ered!
Don’t forget the Wrangler gets all new interior for 2024 model year too
I can’t wait to see it!
Literally nothing changed except for the screens, a 4xe XR, a full float rear axle for XR equipped models, and 33s on the Willys. Though I have to say, a 4xe Xtreme Recon is a big addition.
@The u mean a longer infotainment screen to run 2 windows for off road screens, powered yet water folding front seats, finally side airbags ( in the roll bar) bigger system to increase tow rating to 5000, safety features are now standard across the board ( phew) , more speakers, XR package in more models , built in winch ,select trim gets built in air compressor .
What else did u expect from a mid cycle refresh ? It is already overbuilt for what it needs to do from factory / mopar
LOL the Jeep won't be in the shop for months and months waiting for recalled parts. Look how many recalls the Bronco has!!! Ford should include free AAA for every Bronco purchase!
You must have forgotten about the Jeep recalls for them catching fire, silly boy!
@@BuckleUpButtercupTV
Recall was for manual trans. Also check your lugnuts-Factory didn't torque them!
BTW, we just had to return the jeep to the dealership for the expansion bottle failing and leaking coolant… it had 5k miles. So there’s that too.
I own both. 2021 Jeep rubicon xtreme recon and 2 door bronco badlands. Everytime I druve each I play this video / review thing out in my head. My wife and I have nitpicked everything about each. I don’t like the Jeep steering- never have - which is why we have a bronco. But my wife is a Jeep fan. She just loves it. For whatever unexplainable reason- which I get- it has a character about it that’s buggy like and fun. Like it shouldn’t be road legal but it. 100% agree bronco is better daily. Gets better gas mileage. Yada yada… but the Jeep is a Jeep. Idk always planned on picking one, but honestly I like having both still. Also, Jeep has an off-road + mode, not quite goat modes but, 4 lo and high it performs different functions. And the rear storage by roll bars, I love being able to stuff all types of stuff between window for storage. Lots of storage products on Amazon to add nooks and cranny’s. I really liked hearing someone else’s thoughts on both side by side though! Send it! lol!!
They are both so different and are much the same hahah I really do get what your saying. They are each their own, but both have flaws and have perks. I’m glad that you like both! I would rather like both than hating one or the other!
Soooo glad I got my Bronco....never did like the Jeeps looks at all!!!
I do agree that the bronco just looks better!
Where did you get the BTRCUP letters?
www.stickerfab.com/search?rfsn=6193704.cfae55&q=oracle
I had a jeep sport 2 door for a short time fun to drive but seems like you had to fight the steering wheel to stay straight going straight
I had the same situation!
Late HAPPY MOTHERS DAY
I was considering buying a bronco until it came out that it actually was built off the Ranger platform. which means they did not put their heart and soul into it. The original bronco was built from the ground up. Ford drop the ball. All I see on the hard trails are independent front suspension failing no matter how hard you try to strengthen it.
Almost $100,000 for a jeep! Unbelievable. I used to love the old jeeps I had. Rugged and reliable. I would not be caught dead in one today. Lol. Glad you’re stuck with the Broncos Krista. Give chewi a scratch behind the ear for me.🐶
Chewi agrees with my decision:)
Bronco did it best! I love my bronco!
Woo!!
The Bronco is definitely a mom vehicle for all that Costco & Target running aroumd reasons you mentioned... thats what the Bronco is mainly for. 💯 Especially the 4 door... that thing is huge 😳 #Winning 😅
I suggest looking into the cream I recommend in the description.
@BuckleUpButtercupTV Dont be mad about that mom SUV... You made the case with the kiddos and grocery getter examples... I just agreed with you... you convinced us 💯
I agree the Jeep is better for rock crawling style off-roading. But let's be intellectually honest here people. Out of your all your miles driving what % is hardcore rock crawling and what % is on paved roads and forest service roads?
With that logic, any awd small crossover should suffice. Being honest here
@@AnandSingh-mt1xq That's probably true not everyone lives in Moab.
But to all those people like "mY jEeP cAn rOcK cRaWl bEtTeR" how often do they actually do it? I'd rather have a rig that can go nearly anyplace a Jeep can, but drive better at speed on forest roads, better handling, and be more comfortable doing it.
