      You guys are emphasizing that the wrangler is a quicker drag car based on *engines.* Yes, I agree... "torque" wins races. But you guys are neglecting the Gladiator probably got "towing truck gears in the rear end," making it slower off the line. Also, gasoline engines tend to have the torque more readily available across the entire rpm spectrum, where as typically with a diesel you can get loads of torque but you do have to wait longer for it, even with these car companies putting turbos on them. Put the same gears in both vehicles then see what happens.

      @@MethodMarine umm...incorrect...the turbos are usually for top end power, not low-end torque....diesels have all the torque down low and not much up top...of course that depends on the size of the exhaust housing, variable vane turbos, dumping extra fuel to ignite in the turbo to spool faster, etc

      SAM Cooper I think non turbo ICE vehicles lose efficiency with less oxygen somewhere in the order of 3% per 1000 foot in altitude. So at 5000ft around 15% in performance loss. It's all about manifold air density and Turbos with good inter coolers increase manifold air density which is why they enhance power even at altitude.

      @steve0763 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@0004612 Not true at all. NA engines loose 3% of their HP for every 1Kft of elevation. So at a mile high, the v8 and v6 engines are down 15%. The diesel, since it has a turbo, can still see the same target boost pressures, but it'll just take a little longer to reach those pressures. In other words the diesel will still make the same HP/TQ numbers, it'll just spool up a little slower.

      The Ram is lifted and on bigger tires, the engine in the F-250 was built to make gobs of torque across the whole rev range and has 2 extra gears in the transmission. I don't remember which rear axle they got in the F-250 but if they got the 4.30 (which every Super Duty should have, the 3.73 shouldn't even be an option) then they've really got the gearing, torque, rotating mass, and aerodynamic advantage (remember, the Ford still has that huge chin spoiler on it and they are functional).

      Well, when you think about it this way... Old SRT8 (Jeep WK) was pretty much quickest in its class (and even compared to some other SRT models) because it had AWD. Sure, AWD is NOT same as 4WD, but you know, if it was just rear wheel drive it wouldn't be as quick since it'd just burn tires and wouldn't go anywhere, compared to how it goes when all tires are doing it.

    The Gladiator Diesel is coming. The towing capacity is limited by the suspension on the Jeeps. That's why they don't gain with the diesel.

    Forced induction/high altitude story.... So I live in flat America near sea level. I took my 90yo father's 1996 Buick Park Avenue Ultra (supercharged) on a quick vacation through the smokey mountains in Tennessee. As the altitude brought all of the cars to using their hazard lights and trying to maintain 45mph on the 6% grades, I rocketed up those mountains so fast, I couldn't believe it! That measly 240 supercharged horsepower could run by regular cars at 85mph like nothing. I never expected THAT MUCH of a difference with forced induction. I wouldn't live in the mountains without it!

    • @HoosierDaddy_

  • @TheCodyleehargo
    @TheCodyleehargo 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I didn't expect the Jeep diesel and Ram would be quite that slow. My 2014 F-150 5.0 SuperCab 2wd does a consistent 0-60 between 6.2-6.3s and a 1/4 in the low 15s range. It was doing that before the intake and exhaust. That's not even really fast at all. Maybe the mile above sea level is the reason for the high 0-60 times and my times being lower is because I live in Florida at about 72ft above sea level.

    TFL should do a tire and lift vs stock comparison on the drag strip, fuel economy, and speedo change. I bet going from stock 30 to 35 in tires with a lift would show a big change.

  • @BiggMo

    I suspect those trucks had tow friendly rear ends. The wrangler is just geared different.
    Also, that 3rd gen 3.0L EcoDiesel is 80% redesigned- almost a new engine. I wouldn’t want to be FCA’s beta tester.

    This is a perfect opportunity to compare Wrangler powertrains (not Gladiator).
    What about a 0-60 race and off road comparison between the Rubicons, as well as MPG real world test?
    Please consider.

  • @petercheuk9019
    @petercheuk9019 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Horsepower wins races. The two big trucks (and the Gladiator) were pulling up on the diesel but the finish line is too short. 1/8th mile? On the quarter the diesel would have lost. There was an interesting article a few years ago from Auto, Motor, Und Sport comparing a Golf GTD against the similar horsepower GTI and they both had the same quarter mile times, same 0-62, and similar fuel economy, driven really hard, despite the TDI having almost twice the torque. Granted, driven sensibly on the streets the GTD feels spunkier and returns better fuel economy because you can short shift it but they perform similarly if driven aggressively.

    All those people who made the mistake of buying the gas Gladiator are about to seriously regret it! Expect resale of the gladiator with Pentastar to tank as everyone trades them in for a diesel and tons for sale used in 2020. Way too underpowered for a truck. The diesel in the gladiator will be excellent.

      The best 0-60 time they got with that diesel jeep was 8.6 seconds. But when they compared their Rebel against the new powerwagen, they were clocking the rebel 0-60 at about 7.5 seconds. so they must have really messed up the rebel's acceleration with tires and exhaust, or there is something else going on with it.

    Roman, you are likely correct about the Wrangler Diesel being the vehicle with the most torque and mileage but least towing capability if you don’t included EVs. The Tesla Model 3 Performance, to name one, has it beat in those areas if EVs are included.

  • @mattrobinson775
    @mattrobinson775 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Pretty cool, but the constant knocking about tow rating on Wranglers is just unnecessary. I have a JK and tow all the time, I have a boat and a utility trailer. Its plenty for lots of stuff so I feel like that claim of lousy tow rating of 3500LBS is misleading, it's a comparable number to other SUVs. And not the main function of a wrangler... The towing is decent, but I heard the claim it has the lowest tow rating in America is just silly.. many passenger cars are only rated for 1000lbs towing! Mamy SUVs fall into the 3500 to 5000 range. Plus, you can do so many things to get around towing limits to make it possible to tow more. Would I tow 10k with my JK, no.. but it's not a pickup and it's not meant to be one. Want to tow lots of things?? Carry lots of payload?? Then yeah get a pickup. But pickups are lousy on the trails, bad angles, long wheelbase etc etc.

      I'm not too familiar with these diesel 4x4's, but do tell me which ones those would be, unmodified of course? Something that's faster than, say, Golf R32 from 10-20 years ago, or even something like humble and cheap GTI Mk5 (which is slower than R32, but still faster than this Wrangler in this video) 🤔 How fast are those diesel 4x4's these days then? That wrangler doing 8,61 seconds 0-60? That's like watching the paint dry, compared to hot hatches from 10-20 years ago 😅
