I discuss sizing, exterior and interior appearance, features, technology, safety, material quality, powertrain, performance, exhaust, driving impressions, off-road capabilities and general advantages or disadvantages of each. I finish off this video discussing which one of these 2 off road vehicles I would choose.

I have owned each so I will throw my 2 cents in: I have been driving Jeeps since 2015 with a Rubicon JK until 2018 when the JL came out. I bought a Rubicon JL and it was light-years ahead of the JK. Much more refined ride and just better all around. Then, in 2021 I bought a 392. Wow, what a vehicle. The Hemi is nothing short of amazing and that sound...my oh my.
So, 2022 comes around and I really thought Ford did a great job on the Bronco so I found a Raptor for not too much over MSRP. Sold the 392 and I have been driving the Raptor for the last year. Guess what? I am now ordering a 2024 Jeep 392 and will sell the Raptor. My thoughts on each vehicle are as follows:
Likes and dislikes:
Bronco styling is fantastic. Since it is a little wider, the interior is roomier and very comfortable. The ride, especially on the freeway, is much better than the Jeep as the Bronco has IS in the front whereas the Jeep has a solid axle.
I really like the Sync 4 system and it seems to work quite well. I don't know about the new U-Connect that is in the 2024 Jeep.
One thing I was really looking forward to in the Bronco that ended up really disappointing me is the driver's digital screen. The lack of customization is so low and it lacks basic information. Such as a real-time fuel usage meter. There is a fuel usage estimator in the trip cluster, but nothing in real-time. My wife's Bronco Bad Lands has one that is quite nice. When changing drive modes in the Raptor, it changes the color of the screen. In the Off-Road mode, the screen turns into a nice bronzy amber color. But, I don't normally drive in this mode as I am almost always on Raptor mode. But, in Raptor mode, the screen is bright white with no way of altering the colors. And, the most maddening thing is the seatbelt nag. If I am the only person in the Raptor, and I buckle my seatbelt, a screen comes up taking over the entire center of the digital screen with a graphic showing me the four seats and what seat has a seatbelt fastened. In order to get rid of this I either have to click on it or drive around a half a mile for it to go away. The screen has the little seatbelt graphic that every other car has had for the last 40 years in the upper right top of the display. There is no reason to have this seatbelt nag take over the screen. This is a complaint from other Raptor owners too. The digital part of the screen in the Jeep, while being smaller, has much more customization than the Raptor and is more colorful. I would much rather have the analog/digital screen in my wife's Bronco than the screen in the Raptor.
The lack of a winch-ready bumper in the Bronco is a mystery to me. Jeep has nailed this as the bumper is winch-ready and all one has to do is buy a mounting plate and you are good to go. Now you can even get a factory winch. And, you don't have to alter or move the parking sensors. The Bronco on the other hand has no factory winch-ready bumper whatsoever. There are several aftermarket bumpers but you either lose your driving/parking sensors or have to move them which from the videos I have watched is a real pain; so much so that I just didn't do it.
Engines. It was apparent from the start that Ford was trying to beat the Jeep in most categories. I feel the Raptor disappoints in every way compared to the 392 engine-wise. If Ford had dropped the 5.0 V8 into the Raptor, it would be a completely different vehicle. But they decided to use the 3.0. While this motor is a nice engine, to me it is not Raptor worthy. And, the gas mileage is at least as bad or worse than my old 392. I typically am in the 13s on the Raptor and was in the 13's to 14's in the 392. While I am not a crazy driver, I am very aggressive and have driven both the same way.The exhaust on the 392 is absolute heaven. Wow, there is nothing sweeter than the sound of this motor. The Raptor on the other hand just sounds like crap to me. It is so bad that I find myself putting the exhaust in quietest mode as it is just annoying. And, holy crap, when you are in the Raptor mode, the downshifting is just crazy, loud and obnoxious. I can't imagine it is healthy for the transmission and there is no way to adjust it. This is also a common complaint of Raptor owners.
Some of my complaints may seem minor but this is my daily driver so I see them every day.
I just left the dealer today and am getting a 392 for $400 over dealer invoice which I feel is a pretty good deal. The order goes in Monday and I was told it will take 12 weeks or so.
Thanks for this video.
Thank you for sharing your real life experience! Very helpful for those in the market!
I just bought a ‘24 392. I currently have a ‘21 392. To me the ‘24 drives a lot better on the street. I think the steering is tighter and brakes are better. I got the white exterior with winch and one touch top. I paid MSRP but was happy to even get the color and options I wanted. Not sure if they are, but the leather feels nicer on the 24 as well.
Where can one get this deal at $400 over dealer invoice ?
@@trentslusher317 I also noticed that difference immediately, in my '24 392 vs earlier years I drove. It rides smoother and has much tighter steering than my previous Jeep.
@@trentslusher317i just did the exact samething with my 2021 392 and i agree the ride in the new 2024 392 is better and the steering is a way better,plus power seats,warn winch,new head unit .And i found a dealer that gave me the 96k Msrp 2024 392 for 86k so the economy is definitely effecting the dealerships
Jeep Wrangler 392 all day everyday of the week.
Ur loss
I got my 2024 392 wrangler last weekend and I wouldn’t change a thing on it. Gooo Jeep!!
Cant wait for mine!
Congrats!
Ive had 12 plus jeeps. Some super modified always start off with a rubicon.I now have the bronco raptor the truth is it has more options its handles way better in both on and off road.Ive had both so the jeep is a no GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Try one out then ask yourself. That guy is right.
@@greenrush4313 A good friend of mine has the ford bronco raptor. I’ve driven it off road and so far I’d rather keep my 392 . 392 is a total beast .
Pray for me bro I buy mine too! That's my dream car
392 is an absolute blast to drive
I just went through a couple months of shopping both of these. I bought the '24 Jeep 392 this week. The acceleration isn't even in the same ballpark between these two. The Jeep puts a bigger smile on your face, if you go drive both.
😄
Reality is that for $100k you can get a Ram Trx and have everything you ever wanted and more. Power, looks , luxury , space.. everything
@@kalithor1 I agree with this. I also have a TRX and I would keep it over the Jeep 392 if I could only keep one. But, not the basis of the comparison in this video.
I definitely go for a jeep wrangler Rubicon 392
I just traded out of my 23 W 392 (non XR) into a 2023 Braptor pretty much fully loaded. The Raptor does everything better except the sound. God I miss that 392 sound already (It had AWE exhaust and was simply musical). But the jeep was just a terrible highway car. Loud and borderline unsafe (if you’re on the highway and it’s banking left or right and you hit an imperfection in the pavement, your life would flash in front of your eyes). Going 80 felt like going 120. I’ll really miss that sound but I couldn’t deal with the other draw backs.
The Braptor also gets much more attention if that’s your thing. The 392 is very understated
I think all the jeep lovers should be thanking Ford. Because if they never came back out with the bronco to be direct competition with the Jeep. You’ll probably never have the 392 and a mid refresh. Sometimes it takes a little competition to bring out the best in some. I wonder what the comparison would be when Ford come out with a V-8 for the bronco. If you think about it, the raptor R is already beating the TRX.
392 mods in a jeep have been done for years, long before ford brought back the bronco.
Uhhhh…….talking about factory vehicles.
Could not agree more. The day the Bronco was revealed Jeep dropped the "concept 392." A win for everyone on either side.
Ford has the best V6. Only way Jeep can beat them is with v8. V6 jeeps don't come close. If Ford puts a coyote in it, look out
I like fords but in this segment the jeep is my cup of tea that sound of the v8 is superb
I purchased a 392 it came in on New Year’s of this year it was beautiful the quality craftsmanship was incredible, I’ve always had a Jeep owend 14 of them and by far this was the best, I modified it I put the best lift kit I could 39 inch tires Custom drive shafts fox 3.0 shocks it was awesome but I purchased it for my adventures long road trips and towing a teardrop trailer, I took it on two long trips & the vehicle exhausted me (Driver fatigue) so I test drove the bronco raptor and just loved the comfort so I ended up purchasing the bronco raptor and it is by far the most comfortable off-road vehicle I’ve ever driven and chatter bumps Forget about them you don’t feel them at all, example my 392 about 18 miles an hour over the chatter bumps even with air down tires bronco raptor I could do 45 miles an hour over them no problem there’s things I like about both of them, you can’t go wrong with either one and whatever you get be proud of it!!!!👍🇺🇸

Finally……someone that’s not talking out of their ass! Having actually experience with both, and being a jeep owner for decades……this raptor is just on another level, keep the v8…..the raptor is just better.
Again……another person not talking out of their ass! Having actual experience w both……you are absolutely correct!
My anvil 2024 392 wrangler with a winch is being delivered in 2 weeks! Also it’s paid off 😊
Excellent comparison! Thanks for the in depth analysis. I am debating between the two. Leaning towards the Jeep because I have a jeep and love it. I think this video may have solidified my decision.
Nice review and comparison. Both vehicles are nice. All a matter of personal choice.
I had a 46 Willys. Loved it. I am stuck on Jeeps!
Great Review SchwayZ
Thank you for watching!
Comment of getting the 2024 392 makes me jealous...
No competition at all for 2024 Jeep 392. With all the improvements and refined changes, ofcourse that big V8 and massive power with the sound worth paying for a 6 digit vehicle. The Jeep just feels more solid rigid and tighter. I'm not sure what Jeep did, but the 2024 feels so much better. It's not even a comparison.😂
💯
How’d that jeep do in the baja 1000? Lol.
And btw, litebrite which owns both a 392 and raptor says no comparison the other way. Lol. Stock for stock, they claim the raptor is the best factory off roader ever made.
@@KN-jw7ts Negative sir
392 hands down.
Jeep warning good 💪🎉
I will never own either of these vehicles, but I love watching Bronco vs. Jeep videos since I have a Base Bronco manual. If I was to buy one strictly for off roading, I would with the Jeep. But since I would do mostly regular driving with only a little off roading here and there, I would definitely get the Raptor over the 392
Bronco sounds so…🫢🫣🤡
Wrangler 392 all day long. So I bought one and really enjoy driving it.
JEEP ALL DAY!
I just watched a video where a Bronco Raptor faces the 2024 Jeep Wrangler going up a sand hill and the Bronco looked fantastic and the Wrangler couldn't go up OK greetings
392 wrangler all day.
With a Tazer you can get rear wheel drive only option.
The Wrangler makes you smile! The Bronco doesn't the way the Wrangler does. Plus, the interior of Bronco is less than impressive compared to the Wrangler.
My JL’s both have the start stop button. You can turn it off permanently with a Tazer.
I plan to get a Raptor Bronco next year and honestly probably will rarely see offroad ....but my supercharged 2021 Armada is awesome - I've had jeeps they just feel to tight - but I have had several H2s so I am getting smaller vehicles-lol - that 392 sound awesome - bronco needs a v8
Great comparison but I think you have a lower trim on the raptor since all of the high trim broncos come with electric adjusters for the seats
It actually depends on what seats it’s optioned with. If you go marine grade vinyl you get the washout interior but manual adjusted seats (because water and electronic seats don’t go well together). If you option for the leather seats, you get the power adjust and heated feature, but no washout interior. So it depends on what you need and how much dirt and mud will end up inside the Bronco.
Surprised that you didn't mention the lack of headroom in the front row seats for people above 5'9 tall.
Tazer gives you turn assist on the 392.
Bronco Raptor if your off road rig is also your daily driver. However, if Jeep makes a 392 Gladiator, I’ll get that for the performance + utility!
Jeep 392
What we really want is the Bronco with the Jeep’s engine
with coyote engine
The Raptor should have had the 3.5 from the F150 Raptor to complete with the 392.
I was hoping for that as well
No way. It's needs a 5.0 dark horse coyote engine in it and EV1 would buy it!
The only reason I would buy the Jeep is for the engine note. For everything else, the Bronco would be my choice. I love the way they integrated the two big screens in the dash. They way they do it in the Mustang, makes it look like they added the screens as a afterthought.
392 all the way!
Bronco all the way!!!
Bronco needs a 5.0 500hp dark horse coyote engine in it and EV1 would buy it! Including me.....
Until then, no comparison. JEEP 392 Is the true sounding animal here.
B raptor with no doubt
Bronco Raptor all day more room more aggressive
Both vehicles are expensive because they are loaded with off roading technology. The owners of either of these vehicles have to have a significant amount of disposable income just to be able to purchase either one of these vehicles. Off roading either of these vehicles will expose them to damaged paint, dents, and broken parts.
Therefore, most of these vehicles will never be taken off road. They will be daily drivers, or grocery getters for their wives, or just an extra vehicle that stays in the garage.
I’ve owned 3 Jeeps. I current own a JEEP JK Wrangler. I don’t off road my Jeeps, they are strictly an extra vehicle that stays mostly in the garage. A Jeep Sport or Sport S will satisfy my Jeep fetish. If more luxury is desired then a Sahara is an option. It makes no sense to me to pay a lot of money for off road technology that I will never use, but that’s just the way my mind works.
My 2024 Brapter has electronic adjusting seats. 🤷♂️
Friend of mine broke her neck when the Bronco flipped .
BRONCO RAPTOR sucks I’m taking delivery on my 392 next week and cant wait.
The drive, power, comfort, is far superior over the RAPTOR, plus I didn’t have to wait another 1.8 years to get the 392. I had a RAPTOR on order for 1.8 years when the 2024 order banks opened up, I was pushed to the bottom of the list. No more loyalty from me. I sold my Raptor Truck also.
Jeeps suck
Wait, so does it suck or you’re just salty you didn’t get one? Seems like the latter.
The Bronco cannot compare with the regular Wrangler and definitely not with the 392.
Broncos come with power seats when you get the upgraded leather trimmed seats
Jeep now has power seats
❤️❤️
i heard the new ford bronco raptor r is coming in 2025 500hp and 550lb ft of torque. i dont know if its true
I’ve had both and the wrangler just has a crappy ride and when driving on freeways the oversteer is horrible its like steering a boat. Im keeping the Bronco because lets face it, most driving is not going straight up rocks all the time and the Bronco is much more overall capable and comfortable
Jeep V8, easier to park at grocery store. With front camera.
392 , no eco turd
The Jeep comments are funny. I own one but I’m leaning toward the Braptor. The issue is the Wrangler is smaller, less comfortable. If you’re a small person than the Wrangler is ok.
Bronco Raptor all day more room more aggressive
I would not like the frameless doors the Raptor has, Way too easy for break ins. These vehicles are targets as it is and the frameless doors are just too thief friendly so I would say no to the Bronco just for that reason.
😅 the Bronco is not a legendary maybe the old one that had solid axles and actually was built more like a Jeep the jeep has many door options in many many more stuff you can do
I have had 2 jeeps previously. I will be getting the bronco
Bronco Raptor and it’s not even close.
Bronco defeats the purpose of what you’d use the vehicle for due to its size. Anyone that goes on trails/off-roading knows that your ability is limited by the size of your vehicle. Goes without saying, the Hemi V8 in a Jeep is all you ever wanted in an already fully capable off roading vehicle. Throw in the recent improvements and you really made a mistake if you passed it up for a Bronco lol.
Friend just traded his 2024 Wrangler for a Braptor. It’s more comfortable and he only off roads a bit. Plus the Bronco looks incredible, the wrangler looks normal.
Outside of Rock Crawling and the sound of the 392 the Bronco Raptor beats the 392 in every measurable way from on the road performance to offroad performance with it's much superior suspension tech.
Bronco! I was incredibly unimpressed by the wrangler and the price tag is too high for what you get
Jeep392= Rottweiler, bronco=Golden retriever.
they have to name bronco wrangler😂
Buy neither each one is close to 100k - you wanna waste your money do some good instead on the planet donate that 100k to charity if u really wanna poop on your dollar bills
Raptor no comparison ! Jeep looks and drives like a Jeep , that’s not a bad thing if you like that ride and ducks and people waving.
Braptorrrrr all day!!!!
You're going to be biased cause you bought a Bronco. I love my 24' Wrangler. I'm sure you'll rank on the Jeep. You're the TH-camr not me.
You clearly didn't watch the video and the verdict. Guess what, i chose the wrangler bud. Next time watch the video before leaving a pointless comment.
I got bored )-;@@SchwayZ

@@mmahtnart8986 no its because you're a troll
It’s laughable the Bronco costs the same.
The Bronco Raptor was built to shine off road….the Bronco will eat the Jeep for lunch in an off road competition…
The Jeep is faster but that doesn’t matter off road
Too bad that neither one has the reliability of a Toyota. Typical American made vehicles, hits all the points, but not made to last.
There is only1 Raptor and is not Bronco
The original name that Ford had for this was “Warthog”. They should’ve used that and kept Raptor for their trucks.
Everyone knows Ford quality is trash (except ford lovers) Just saying
You mean gm/chevy is trash. Actually ram gm/chevy is trash. At least Ford the better out of all 3. I have a early 22 f350 tremor powerstroke, 140k miles....not one single problem
Jeeps have always been garbage ….we will see the longevity of the new JL platform
My little friend, if you use real data and analytics…….Chrysler, I mean Fiat, I mean stellantis….the jeep is one of the worst out out there, in terms of reliability and quality. Lol. I could have accepted if you were comparing Ford to Toyota…….but to jeep?! Lol. Cmon guy, smartin up.
@@KN-jw7ts I worked on that junk for decades as a master auto tech…..coming from experience!
@@markcole6475still driving my ‘98 Jeep Cherokee Sport. Been G r e a t !! Still driven every day, looks new!
392☝️☝️☝️☝️👍👍👍❤️❤️
My ‘23 392 will eat up a bronco raptor hands down.
