Well he is making it because he is going at his angles and speed. You guys make everyone slow down and go at your approach. Let the driver do his thing
Agreed its there vehicle not a test vehicle.
@@shitloveaduck I thought Roman talked a bit excessively on some of them. But i agree with you he does a good job calling out potential issues in advance and so on. It just could be a little distracting sometimes I think. Love his positive energy though.
Yeah if I took my rig there I’d just send it like I do when I wheel lol
What wheels are those guys ? A little help
The exhaust rumble from that 392 V8 is glorious. It makes me want to snatch up a 392 before Jeep stops production.
I think they stop the production after 2024 ends.
SO CLOSE. Letting off the gas as he came up killed the momentum.
If he stayed on the gas I think it may have made it.
Yeah I feel like that happens a lot with people on their gimble in the way lol
Agree. if you're moving in the right direction, keep the momentum up until the rear tires clear.
Love these videos, real people, real rides, real testing!
Could not be better!
Great Jeep. And the owner had the skills expected. Good job fella. Nothing to be ashamed of there.
smugly, “you got anything harder”
Instantly stuck 😂🤣😂🤣
That mud is the game changer.
In the future TFL could add an impossible obstacle called either Yes or Harder.
Garbage tires
He would have made it if he didn't pussy foot it haha
Always remain humble.
This Jeep has a proper exhaust note. It makes me think of the old CJ5s of the ’70s when V8s were everywhere around Colorado.
But the CJ-5 wasn't a bus.
I'm so glad he got stuck. That thing sounds SWEET!
That dude did not worry about his expensive ass jeep props 💯😂
He scooped a whole heap of ranch on his bumper. Imagine if he’d hit that at speed like so many of you are suggesting. I’m sure he’s disappointed he didn’t make the obstacle but he’d be pissed if he smashed his bumper. I’ve been to enough mud parks where Jeeps are being flat towed back home because their thoughts were “just give it more skinny pedal “
People are suggesting once he made it out to throttle it more and reversed and tried again. Momentum is the answer...you should know that by how many "mud parks" you've visited
THIS MAN DRIVING RISKED HIS LIFE FOR THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO. Wow is all i can say. This guy is a pro offroader. I have not seen better.This guy driving is a little crazy also. WOW is all i can say
Too used to Rock climbing and not used to Mudding! That's all. No harm no foul. Everyone is having fun and we benefit from the good content! 👍
He is 100% a novice off-road. Love to see people get into it. With that beast of a rig he can do so much
This guy is an awesome driver of this rig. Woww really talented driver.
I wanna see the bronco raptor try this course
Gotta let the driver do there own thing
It cracks me up whenever I see people wheeling on here. If you ain’t smacking your head off the roof when going over stuff you’re going too slow!
Need to bring it to Windrock in Tennessee. It will prove just how wonderful the 392 is at rock crawling.
I have seen 38's put on the 392, but I believe that was an extreme Recon 393
What a great looking , sounding and performing jeep
This heavy, oversized 4 dr bus met its match. Love how the nimble '05 TJ Rubicon did this trail like a champ with just a modest 2" lift and 33" mud terrains. By far, my favorite tumbleweed segment!
O|||||||O
🇺🇲 Only in a 2 Dr 🇺🇲
'41 - '06
I have a 2 door JK. Some obstacles favor short wheelbase, some long. Just the way it goes....I'd love a 392!
Looks like a lot of fun! Makes me wish I had something that I could come out there with to try my hand at it. Hell I'd do it just for the complimentary power wash!
Certified bad ass! I can't be mad at Jeep for putting this beast out.
Great sounding Jeep!, I am surprised he didnt have a wench but very good video. Great work Andre and TFL
Beautiful jeep. That sonic touch is nice
That Jeep is so sick!
:51 he was about to smack the hood but realized it wasn't his, so he lightly touched it. 😂😂
The kenda klevers look great!
I saw that "Not all who wonder are lost" nice
Entertaining and informative. The reality TV drama music though??
Pretty crazy, I never thought I’d see a guest on the channel that was from that close to me
So jealous Jeep we need that 392 gladiator!
Nothing sounds better then that 392
Love those kenda klevers!
Awesome. Hopefully we’ll see the Sonic at Bantam Trailfest in October.
We'll be there
Unfortunately, power wouldn’t help much in this case. Only ground clearance and tire selection.
That does have manual. Move your shifter to the left.
simple things in life LOL
More gas and actual mud terrains would have made a huge difference. Momentum the whole time. They slowed him down too much. Pretty sure back and forth would have worked when he got “stuck”. I’ve put my 392 on 37s with 4.88 through worse!
His coaching got dude stuck 😆
Hello fellow Pittsburgh-area person.
Has a 4Runner been out on this yet? Would love to see
No
I mean they literally all do the same.
They took the FJ up it when they first built the course and it couldn't do it. Of course, it was a stock FJ. If they had lifted it and put some good aggressive MT tires on it, then maybe it could have. But they never did.
Just get a blue trd pro and call Steve from Canada he’ll do it 😂
Watch jurrasic park if you want to see an old dinosaur off road
Im glad I live where we dont have mud like that. I have a Rubicon and its a beast on much more difficult "terrain" than seen here. Mud is an ENTIRELY different ballgame, tires are 90% there, and I would hate to be running 2 inch mud lugs on a daily driver.
So the big bad V8 Jeep 392 stuck just like Tommy's Willys Sport, Tommy said he could keep up with a Rubicon and would love to see an old Jeep Cherokee and a Blazer S10, ZR2, and K5 on the course, cool Jeep.
Andre that rope provides more pull than a regular rope the elastic retracts and adds power
im from butler pa. awesome jeep fest!
I think I’ve heard that you want to back out the shackle pin 1/4 turn so you can remove it.
he already dinked his little exhaust pipe NICE!
Those tires are on the mild side as well, if he had some Cooper SST or Nittos or something more aggressive he could have dug out of that, because he was already close when andre told him to stop. At least from my arm chair view.
Why drop both tires in at the same time. More angle entering Tommys Demise and more skinny pedal and it would of popped right out. Try to only put one wheel at a time into a rut like that. Very cool Jeep and the exhaust sounds great.
Lovely jeep.
Alright!!!! Tumbleweed Scores and Wins!!!!! :) :) :)
The mule is the star of the course lol
Exactly, i think it even went through Tommy's Demise being so light 🙂
It did pretty good great and really cool that you rinse them off afterwards because it would be $20 to $30 at a high pressure car wash to get all that mud off. Lol
I’m sure they have a hose and a pressure washer at Tumbleweed.
amazing car, cool driver
" Not all who wander are lost " - nice JRRT quote
Not all that are lost, wandered. ;)
shows the advantages and limitations of the short wheelbase. Good and bad. 392 also very very heavy compared to the turbo 4
You should mention tire size and brand on these vids.
On the subject of V8s and how jeep put the 392 on the Wrangler, I wish they would offer a smaller V8. Bigger isn't always better. I used to have a Silverado with a 4.8L V8. Great exhaust note, had enough power (285), and was pretty torque-y (over 300 ft lb) with decent fuel economy (got 20 mpg in a short wheelbase V8 Silverado). I wish there was something similar available for the jeep, for the sake of cost. I'd pay an extra $5k to have one as an option in a sport or Willys. But I'm not about to pay $20k extra over a similarly equipped Rubicon just for a V8.
Like the LS. They're dimensionally the same... And a 6.0 will still get the same mileage as the 5.3 and won't drop while towing
The MSRP on a 392 is about $10K more than a loaded V6 Rubicon Recon. Go through a dealer selling below MSRP and that difference is even less.
I believe Jeep used the 392 for two reasons. First, they wanted to throw down what they had to handle whatever Ford was going to release. Secondly, they ultimately don't want to sell to many V8 Wranglers as it destroys their corporate CAFE rating. If they offered a low cost 5.7L option the take rate would be too high. Supply constraints combined with customer demand would push the price up anyhow.
@@redtitan29 I mean, maybe the way YOU'D spec a V6 Rubicon, that's the price. I just spec'd one on the jeep website, and a non XR (because I'd put my own aftermarket lift kit, regear to 4.88s, and 37s) with my options (Gorilla Glass windshield, auto transmission, tow package, tailgate reinforcement and remote start) gives me a Wrangler Rubicon for about $54k. Sure, you can add blind spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control and all that if you want, or steel bumpers and LED headlights, but I don't really need all that extra fancy stuff in my Jeep, because that's not what I'm buying it for. And stuff like bumpers and LED headlights can be added in the aftermarket for way cheaper.
And that's on a Rubicon. I'd love to see the V8 option in a Sport or Willys, and I'd 100% pay $5-6k extra for it. But the 392 *starts* at $80k. I'm not paying that much. I understand why they did it - like you said, it ensures they meet their MPG requirements because most people won't be getting it because most people can't afford an $80k car - but it would still have been nice to have the option. Wishful thinking on my part. It doesn't really matter, anyway, since all Jeeps will be electric in 12 years or so, regardless. Would have been nice to experience it before that, though.
@@backwoodstherapy A 392 is only available loaded so my comments were towards a similar equipped V6 Rubicon. All things equal, I gladly paid the marginal increase to get the V8. Like you, I chose to go with a standard 392 to install my own lift etc.
@@redtitan29 that is actually my point. There may not be a huge difference between a loaded V6 Rubicon and a 392, but I'd like it to be an option in a non-loaded vehicle. Let it be an option in the Willys with the XR package, and I can throw in a front locker, an economy lift, and some 37s and I'd have an amazing V8 rock crawler for less than $60k but that's almost certainly what jeep DOESN'T want. 🤣
Very nice
big boss fight at the end
Great work 👏 👍.
I hope y'all have a safety and property damage liability forms for EVERY BODY to sign that goes there??? 😉
Time to put in an "expert" course, TFL!
I think he could have gotten up that at 12:33 if Andre would've let him bump it.
Nice! The problem with the 392 seems to be "you can go slower." LMAO
I think you need a special sticker for the very few vehicles that can make it through Tommy's Demise without winching or Mule support. BTW, what are you going to do when you have to return the Mule to Kawasaki? That little thing has proven itself indispensable.
It would be fun to see a new wrangler jl vs an old cj or yj. The wrangler will be the most capable but which one would be more fun to run up a mountain
My kids would be going nuts over that sonic sticker haha. I've never seen that sticker before. I'm sure there's always that 1 person that'll say oh they're everywhere here but I think it's pretty cool 🤷♂️. I'm not a fan of stickers so that's going against my nature.
How is the course OnX rated when Roman drove the whole time?
When off roading , there is no importance to horse power,with the exception of deep dunes, so i do not understand the concept of the 392.
If you want speed and noise,buy a corvette.
22 psi when off roading? try 8 psi and you will thank me later.
Great video,i enjoyed it.thanks.
It's driver/spotter error..That's not exactly stuck, if he backed further the first time, then stayed on the gas when the rear dropped in. It may have pulled through.
Had to be pulled out by a side-by-side?? :) As this video shows, horsepower is rarely if ever the limiting factor in offroading: traction and clearance make the difference. The exhaust note is pretty awesome, though.
I’ll like to try the trail in my 2018 JLUR Mojito 😊
where did your black door hinges come from?
Tires
That blue Ram 4500/5500 at very beginning (1st 10 seconds) … where/is there a Ike review on this truck?? Please do one!!
The RAM 5500 is better than RAM 4500.
I would like to see how an ecodiesel would run that
If he wouldn’t have let off the gas coming out of Tommy’s Demise he would have came right out.
Your right and I bet if they let someone run the obstacles in reverse start of with the hardest obstacle first Tommy Demise a few would probably get thru before it’s rutted out in each direction…
I would do up grades on it, dana 60's and lift to put 38 or 40's on it.
Is it wrong that my Bronco made it through with 300lbs of camping gear, Roman in the passenger seat and no spotter but I didn’t get a sticker? 😢😢😔😔😔 at least I got to be the first one 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼. The TFL guys are really as cool in person as on the video.
Classic, love seeing over confident new Jeep owners get humbled.
I wish my Mojave gladiator had a 392 option 😭
This dude is so accelerator challenged ! Omg 😱 Step on It!
Fresh
Is anyone in agreement that Tommy's Demise would have been easy for the 392 if the driver did not listen to Andre's advice?
Completely. They’re not very good spotters and the whole panic yelling helps literally nothing.
Andre yells about everything... He gets way to worried.
100%. He needed more skinny pedal. Once stuck, he SHOULD HAVE reversed and tried again. Bad spotter.
@@Thatbeardedguy86 he put him in right in the ruts. I believe he was trying to get him stuck for a better video scene
That's what I'm saying Andre kinda goes overboard on telling people what hand how to do things. I don't think he means it in a bad way just kinda controlling.
I need to take my 4Runner there
It's his made in China tires. Only Goodyear Territory or BF Goodrich KM3 made it thru Tommy's demis if I remember. Jeep is nice but needs Made in USA tires.
C'mon Andre, no mention of tyre size. They are 35 inch Kenda though.
Why does the clock break when it gets hungry?
It goes back four seconds.
So why does the longer, heavier Gladiator not have a V8 option?
Wish I could afford a 392
Ohhh… y’all know how to off-road. Thanks for the entertainment! 😂 lmao
Jorts, ftw!
What an idiotic location to put those stickers on the windshield. 😂
This or the diesel ?
Swap those shyty all terrains for some m/ts and it would have ripped right up! I had those tires and they're terrible.
Looks like a Yankum rope…..you guys need to get with the program and get a Matt’s offroad Yankum Yeelow
I wish they’d make a gladiator v8. I know they won’t because of the epa and it would reduce payload unless they upped the gvwr but dang would it be sweet. I’d even settle for a 5.7 gladiator. Come to think of it, a 5.7 “budget” wrangler would’ve been cool too
I said this elsewhere in this thread, but I'd love a smaller V8 option. The 5.7 would be a nice $5-6k option. The Rubicon 392 starts at about $80k. A decently equipped Rubicon (Soft top, gorilla glass windshield, automatic transmission, tailgate reinforcement, remote start and tow package) goes for about $55k. Hell, a Willys with the XR package and the same options goes for just over $50k. Imagine a $5-6k option for a 5.7 V8. Then throwing an economy lift on that, some 37s and a front locker. With the extra power and torque the V8 gives you, I'd absolutely drive that over a Rubicon 392, and for about $20k less. Which is exactly why they won't put the V8 in anything but a fully loaded, top of the line Rubicon.
Americas Most Wanted does conversions. You Tuber Casey250 and I think Epic out of Canada swapped in a V-8 in a Mojave
@@backwoodstherapy I’d also have to assume another reason they wouldn’t would be because they have to keep the efficiency of the lineup as a whole at a certain level, and the profit margins on a 392 are higher so they’d prefer to use their limited low-mpg-vehicle production capability on the 392
@@J.Young808 that’s sweet. Would still be nice to have it straight from jeep tho. Most ppl buying a vehicle trade in or sell their old one so to ship a vehicle off to have a conversion done would be a pain. Plus likely cost more. And void the factory warranty.
The Jeep Gladiator is better than Jeep Wrangler.
i would want to bring my aev jeep there
He would have had it if he gave it more beans on Tommy’s Demise but still HUGE props for taking a $100,000 Jeep Wrangler off roading !
I love the course but I’m not sure if Tommy’s demise in its current form makes sense. So far not a single vehicle has cleared it on its own. Maybe it needs some rework?
I think a lot of it has to do with driver as well personally
A couple vehicles have actually cleared it. That guys with the TJ from a few weeks back got through it.
The jeep gladiator made it
@@outofboundmudders yeah it was with a LJ that got stuck but the LJ had smaller, less aggressive tires. I think the week before was the week the other built LJ (or was it a TJ?) got through it.
@@backwoodstherapy I would love to try the course my self I have a 2022 jeep gladiator willy 3.5 inch lift with 35s
Does anyone know if it's possible to import the 392 Hemi version to Europe?
Crappy tires too
I want to bring my jeep up and try. Anyone know how I could make that happen?
