@@danielmiller4354 I like the idea of the whole package, straight from Jeep. Although, I will miss the process of building the Jeep. I balance that with the fact that I don’t have the proper workshop to do that kind of work any longer. So, factory built it is for me!
@@timhaight8021 That’s legit I personally just never really liked other people doing the work for me. However after years of working on aircraft I don’t feel the want to do it on personal projects. So the 392 was perfect for me literally is everything I wanted.
Love it!! The more ridiculous it is, the more I want it. Regular, quiet, efficient cars are boring. I have one of those too. I need something ridiculous and fun that I can take off-roading once in a while, but something that’ll get up a go without hesitation when needed, and something to haul the kids around too. Can’t wait to get mine. It was ordered last week in this exact config, but in the Granite Crystal color 👍
I am absolutely in love with my 392. I’ve had lots of jeeps and this one is smoother then any of the others I’ve had and my sarge green is my favorite color to start with. I traded my 20 Rubicon four-cylinder for this there’s nothing like the acceleration and the sound This jeep makes. Since I couldn’t find one anywhere around I had to drive to get it and even my local dealership asked me to bring it by so they could see one since I’ve never had one
“To deny our impulses is to deny the very thing that makes us human…” (skinny dude from The Matrix) Nothing makes sense about this ride… which is why it makes perfect sense to me! What a special ride?!! Great review! It was fun to watch and loved your observations!
If you've been paying attention to the actual real world offroad reviews it doesn't take much to beat a Bronco offroad. The Bronco breaks a lot of steering components especially tie rods. So a 392 isn't necessary to compete with the Ford but it is necessary if you want good smiles pet gallon
@@teddonley9594 my big issue with the wranglers is ground clearance. I have a 3 inch leveling kit on my 2001 chevy Tahoe and I just glide straight through rough terrain while my dads uncle's wrangler bottoms out like crazy. even hit tock ram 1500 does better. they're cool cars but the engineers at jeep need to talk to the older designers for some tips
@@kennedypuckettmusic2067 I believe you are the first person in history to say that lol in my 50 years of being alive I've owned many many vehicles with most being purpose build offroaders. Old Toyotas old and new jeeps a couple old broncos and from the type of terrain I wheel on those are the only street legal vehicles that can pass such obstacles. I'm not saying your Tahoe can't take you places but it can't go where my jeep does. That's not an insult or a shot at your rig it's just where I go isn't large suv friendly. I guess I'm saying for extreme offroad situations I'll never trust anything other than a Wrangler
Just picked up a triple black 392 with the sky one-touch roof a couple of days ago. OMG, the fun never ends in this. The performance is magic and that top makes it all the better. If you're on the fence or don't think it makes sense, just drive one. You'll get it.
That’s awesome. I just found one that hasn’t been sold and has the extreme recon package on it (shocked since they discontinued it). Sarge green. I’m very sad though because I’m having to give up my 1 ton single rear wheel Cummins diesel for it. Two great vehicles. Crazy for both. I can get another truck one day but I don’t think these will co tiniest to be made
Can they pick the most soy boy to do this review… it’s too much to deal with… the loud rumble hurts my ears ..my wrist hurts cuz the steering is too tuff. 🙄
Rode in the extreme recon 392 at the Motor Bella in Detroit a few months back. Thing was black with half doors. Absolute bad ass. The sound is awesome. Do you need a hemi to wheel, no. But it sure is cool.
So I bought a JL EcoDiesel and love it. I was impatient and couldn’t wait until the Bronco actually hit the dealerships. Now I do a monthly pass by the dealership and am a bit envious of the Bronco. It possibly could have been a different story if I had the 392 I guess.
For max off-road torque, you'd get the diesel or the hybrid 4xe. Or, the gas V6 manual on the Rubicon for the max crawl ratio. The 392 is nobody's friend on a trail when it's getting 7 mpg.
I've experienced that same thing in my 392, when I had the 2.0 turbo Rubicon, everyone waved, now that I got the 392, not so much. 🤷🤷🤷 Jealousy maybe??
Maybe no Jeep wave for you because people are busy trying to figure out why your Rubicon looks different or because they know why it’s different and are jealous of your BAMF Jeep. 🤷🏻♀️
Dumbest and most non-sensical vehicle ever. Absolutely no rational reason for this truck and horrible MPG. So I ordered one and can't wait for her to get here! Literally everything I want in a truck. Retro design. Big Loud v8 and fast. Can throw two kids in the back. Off road chops. What is there not too like? Yeah, it isn't as comfortable as a Grand Cherokee but has a lot more character!
Or you could buy an equally equipped wrangler rubicon for 60k+ and pay 30k+ to swap in a 6.4 hemi engine... without factory warranty or upgraded frame stiffening, or upgraded axles. 81 < 90. I get 13 mpg in the city on my 5.7 jgc. Imagine all city driving in 392 is 1 or 2 less than that in real world. But I want one!
Can’t turn or stop well?????? Lol what are you talking about???? These are amazing turners and great stoppers. Already annoyed lol but man I’d love a 392 Recon!
next step: slap a supercharger on that thing.. ohh.. and when it will be hellcatted? c'mon.. there are altready transplanted Rubicon with hellcat engine.. time for an official one!
Worst person to do a review of the Wrangler 392. It’s not for the country club in Connecticut. It’s for people who actually enjoy nature, exploring and going places no one else can go. The 392 just makes the wrangler a punch in the face to everything else on pavement, too.
"81K and 13 mph.... "PASS". Updating my previous comment. I rented a Bronco for a 300 mile round trip drive. I found the seats hard and my butt hurt during the 2 hour drive each way. Unusual for any car that I rent. This alone would stop me from buying the car. The mileage was actually ok, something north of 20 mph highway, close to the epa estimate and OK given how fast I was driving. I hope Ford provides better seats on the $81k version.
Ready for the bronco 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣are you FUCCIN kidding me 🤣😂🤣😂, there is NOTHING that Ford makes that can ever come close. JEEP will ALWAYS be KING 👑.
A few Rich guys will pay $83k for a recon, the rest will wait a year and pay high $50’s , for $83k you could buy a base 4 door for $25k and sownd $20k and have it much more capable . Keeps going too far charging $80k for wranglers and gladiators. Really sad to see the big execs doing this to keep, we know it’s all profit.
@@centralfloridachrysler3766 that’s actually really cool that you responded. Thank you. However, as someone who regularly goes off-roading in my built vehicle more than most people drive on regular roads. I can tell you that my personal experience with jeep has been a lack of ground clearance and low usable torque figures. Leveling kit on a Chevy truck from early 2000s beats em every time. But the original comment was a bit of a joke;)
This will be my 3rd V8 wrangler but the first one from the factory. The factory assigned my VIN today!
I’m surprised a lot of people I have seen commenting on here that have done crate motors in the past hate on the 392. What made you decide to get one?

It’s now my life long goal to own one.
Oh. Yea. I defiantly like that truck.
So you need the power/ torque off road while climbing. It’s not so much for on road performance, but that doesn’t hurt. Do you really off road?
For max off-road torque, you'd get the diesel or the hybrid 4xe. Or, the gas V6 manual on the Rubicon for the max crawl ratio. The 392 is nobody's friend on a trail when it's getting 7 mpg.

I need that in my life lol.
Buy some better shocks and get 18 inch rims with bigger breaks
I love my 392 wrangler
I think the question is, will the Bronco Raptor be ready for the 392XR?
Nope!
Best Wrangler ever built!
AWESOME REVIEW THANKZZ FOR SHARING!!!!!
He said you don’t want to do 100mph in any Jeep. Umm grand cherokee SRT??
In any "real" Jeep... ;)
I was thinking … I got my Trailhawk past 100 …
That’s not a “Jeep”
Yah, but is it Trail Rated?
Maybe no Jeep wave for you because people are busy trying to figure out why your Rubicon looks different or because they know why it’s different and are jealous of your BAMF Jeep. 🤷🏻♀️

🤣 Me too! I’ve never been so excited while waiting for a new vehicle to be delivered.
😂😂
They are phenomenal. I LOVE mine.
Right. It just doesn’t make sense at all. I ordered mine yesterday. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love it !
Jeep life!
Holy shit 82K
No 2wd?
I am sorry the 392 belongs in the wild........that's dirt
For 80k?! Ill take a bronco or a high end 21 f150

There is no replacement for displacement
God bless the officers family
This fragile petunia reviewing it makes me want it more. If it offends people like him, I'm in. Ordering one.
The recon is not one of the trims of the wrangler right
Correct, it's not a trim. It's an option package on certain trims.
next step: slap a supercharger on that thing.. ohh.. and when it will be hellcatted? c'mon.. there are altready transplanted Rubicon with hellcat engine.. time for an official one!
Should probably leave the Jeep reviews for guys who actually off road.
THE BRONCO IS WEAK...Weak motor,weak ass suspension...
And weaker steering components
It rides brakes and is nicer in most ways than a 2010 luxury car but you act like it’s a 1950s car without anything………….
Fuck I want one even more now

Todays current market it will be more like a 5-6 year wait to get to that price. Granted it may never hit 50’s if 23 is the last year of production.
We all know why they aren’t waving…
Its ct people dont care out there
Jeeps aren’t really that good at off-roading any way.
Haters gonna hate. Jeeps are excellent at off roading. Why do you think we sell soooooo many? Not all are mall crawlers.

Doesn't help off road lol, you obviously don't do much off roading. How about racing up massive sand dunes or effortless rock crawling?
Every time you accelerate, you are probably getting 6 miles to a gallon, hurray.
6 mpg? That's generous. Lol!!
