The audio in this video was recorded with in-ear binaural microphones. If you wear headphones, your mind won't be blown, but it will go, "woah, that's cool."
I'm also the producer for the Winding Road TH-cam Channel:

Here on TheTopher, I'm known for putting a camera on my face and driving cars. Whether it's about any of my personal cars or reviews on weekly press vehicles, the goal is to give you an idea of what a certain car is like to drive or live with. Most of my videos are filmed in POV, with my clothes on, and (for like the 5th time) with in-ear binaural audio. Which, if I haven't made it clear yet, is why you should wear headphones. Because of the whole "woah" factor. It's there, trust me. Try it, it's pretty nuts. Or don't. As long as you whitelist me on your adblocker I'm okay with whatever you do or don't do with regards to headphone usage. That is all. Oh and I guess you should also probably subscribe. Why are you still reading this, you should be watching the video. With headphones! Hah, had to sneak that in there one more time. Later!
A Jeep is my dream car and this is pretty cool display, I like it.
But the only thing I don’t like about it is the price.
Michael Tomlinson this is why we leasing 😹🤝
You got a point😂
And all the dealerships will say.. well it’s because they hold their value😂 it’s very true but cmon now
😂
I think their demographic now is trending to be customers who will get new cars every 2-3 years so they make leasing so attractive. Chrysler, region, dealer incentives, and good negotiating can get you an otherwise really good price. I know jeeps aren’t known for extreme long term reliability but the reasons above cover that fact. Jeep’s basic limited warranty covers repairs and towing for 3 years / 36k miles, and powertrain for 5 / 60k so again those warranty plans basically covers the length of your lease. If you like them, go for it and lease!
Your video is really helping me with my anxieties about driving for the first time 😂
trust me, Its not even that hard..I drove for the first time 2 wks ago and the car does the rest
Roger Ramah I’m glad to hear that my anxiety is about how to properly turn and park.
@@kawaiisakura23 you'll get used to turning and parking as you drive more. I was nervous about that when I started too.
@@kawaiisakura23 I thought I’d never learn 😂 now I drive my friends around everywhere 😭
Did anyone else get nervous when he was taking those corners? 😅
Getting my Jeep tomorrow. So excited!!! Videos like this are so therapeutic to me lol. And I loved this point of view. 👍🏾
As a former Jeep tech, Im impressed with many of the things Fiat is doing with Jeep. I think $51k is reaching, just a bit. Hopefully Fiat depreciation will make them more affordable in 3 or 4 years. Turn signal noise 👍
Wranglers have the lowest depreciation of any car on the market, they are expensive out the gate but you'll get 70-80% of your money back when you sell it.
@Manpreet Singh Very good points. I think any Fiat product depreciates more quickly than many European brands. But the Korean brands have taken the crown of depreciation superstars for a long time, so Fiat depreciation now seems less significant.
@@2W3X4YZ5 European cars generally have terrible resale, the worst in the industry. The 7 Series is a great example. In just a few years, it's barely half of what it was new.
I am really hoping that fiat reliability will go up in the coming years because of the new CEO.
@Joel Repass I think it has already improved significantly.
The alpine unit in jeeps is one of the best systems I’ve ever heard
Ben A Ford Sony Audio + this is the best I’ve heard
Better than bose would you say?
Jorge Escarcega I don’t have any experience with Bose Systems in cars
Jorge Escarcega I would say they’re pretty comparable I’ve moved to aftermarket though so stock stuff sounds pretty flat but still a good system
I wish they would work more on the reliability than looks. Most owners change the look anyways. And in my opinion wrangler is the only jeep worth getting. This was a great review!!!
Great review. I just got a 2018 JL SAHARA UNLIMITED 2.0 litres TURBO and I'm really very happy!!
Alessandro Catanese do you have the soft or hard top? Also how’s the wind noise from the inside ?
If you press the climate button on the display, near the bottom,that’s how you control the heated seats. Sahara’s come with heated seats but the heated steering wheel comes in the Cold Weather Group Package.
Vehicles have out priced themselves
Nah, it’s just that salaries haven’t gone up.
@@Austin-cx2xe LMAO
The technology and levels of refinement you get in vehicles nowadays is absolutely unreal compared to their counterparts even 10 years ago! Look at any Chrysler or GM product compared to what they produced before the recession! So their prices relative to the quality and features of the products haven't gone up that much, at least not an unreasonable amount, but what Austin said is definitely correct, wages haven't risen nearly enough to keep up with incremental rises in cost.
MSRP he stayed is wrong. No Wrangler Unlimited Sahara goes for MSRP of 38K.
MSRP is 51K
NADA/KBB is 38K
@@MihaiRUdeRO They were able to increase profits and investment by moving development out of the U.S. and selling out to Fiat. They remain just as unreliable, but more refined.
I've been really impressed with the way things have turned around at FCA, I'd say the best turn arounds of the American Big 3.
A wrangler was my first car - and currently I have one. I would never pay more than 30k for one though. Your review was great. Just sad to see where Jeep has gone with the insane pricing for their vehicles. They’re not with the 50k that some are going for...
John Baxter ended up paying 46.5k for mine.
MSRP was 55.4k, invoice was 52k with manufacturer incentives it was 49.6k.
Was able to get 10k for my trade which I probably could’ve sold private for 11-13K. I gotta amazing deal and the dealer pretty much broke even.
Mac Sc Maybe I’ve aged out of the market. The highway drives kill me. Lol. (98 wranglers might as well be 89 wranglers - drive wise.)
They do keep a high re-sale value so - it’s money well spent for you.... I just need some comfy seats and no water dripping in on my head when it rains. Lol.
As soon as the economy gets back up and running - I’m looking at a RR Velar - similar price. With an extended warranty of course / I’m old enough now to write it off for work)
Actually the New Ford Bronco is a possibility- if Ford could catch a break to launch the new line.
All the best to you - I’m sure you’ll enjoy yours. No disrespect. ✌️
When the Jeep Gladiator comes out do a review
you`re the only one i could find on youtube who has shown the 4-high-auto selction in use on the road. i have been very curious about whether you can drive on dry roads without tearing up the transmission. i was hoping it basically turns the jeep into an all wheel drive when it needs it. very good video..thanks for answering my question by showing it in action
So I had my AirPods in and when you revved it I thought it was someone outside in my apartment complex
I just watched this 3 times and this is the 4th , I'm falling in love i think she is the winner
Thanks for going over the sound system in the last couple of videos!
Haven’t really driven a Jeep...seems like you gotta turn the wheel a lot to get it to turn.
Not with the JL it's very fun to drive. Transmission is very smooth
Clam73 They’re super easy to turn but you have to crank the wheel back to straight instead of just letting it go like a normal suspension vehicle. It feels like a tractor but like an over sized go kart too if you get the turbo lol
Classical jams
The review was severely lacking in the dog department.
Glad to see another Jeep review really impressed with the new wranglers. Topher is there a possible chance of you reviewing the new Ford rangers?
Arkadaşlar kanalıma bakmak isterseniz :th-cam.com/channels/TtuH85xuskMjTQ9CkhiNLA.htmlvideos?view_as=subscriber
i agree, i would hope he’d do the ranger
Was just driving a new Wrangler hardtop and I'd totally buy one! The only downside for me is the noise at highway speeds gets irritating and it's hard to hear music.
Why not just bump the volume up? Love my new jeep on the commute to the hiking trails and back just because the Alpine system is so clean sounding.
Finally they’ve changed the Wrangler on the inside.
It has the best heated seats and steering wheel in the business. Wish you had it.
The heat the steering wheel makes is insane. Love the remote start.
The pov is so good that I was even keeping an eye on the road when you were putting the music on :)
I think I need to get off the sport cars band wagon and get a Jeep Rubicon.
First review actually playing the speakers, thanks. It sounds really good
The sound is coming through his microphone and then played through your device's speakers or headphones. The only true way to gauge a sound system is to listen to it yourself.
this is exactly how i would have mine but with the V6!
Carefull saying stuff like that will get you killed around here
starsaberfan39 what?
I love this new interior on this Jeep, looks great
Yayyy I've been waiting for the unlimited
A software flash has supposedly fixed the spongy steering issue fwiw.
I love jeeps so much like I love jeeps it’s my Dream car man I love jeeps so amazing 😩❤️
Keep up the good content though. Your videos are relaxing
Thank you for giving me a ride in your jeep. great video learned a lot.Thanks
Great video as always. Loving it dude
Excellent rewiev mate 😎👍
Nice Review as always 😄
Who else gets excited when he does tht first turn
When you think that you can get a fully loaded wrangler or a Durango srt it kinda puts things into perspective. Not that these compete with each other at all but they are both 4wd SUVs and the wrangler makes the Durango look like 5 times the price on terms of refinement not to mention the durango has the 6.4 and brembos.
The price difference has a lot to do with all of the off road goodies in the high trim wranglers. You can take a rubicon through the toughest trails at Moab and it will get through without a problem with a decent driver. Throwing a v8 in a Durango they’ve already produced for many other vehicles in their lineup is much cheaper.
Can you take the top off a Durango?
Gorgeous blue!!!
way too expensive
I agree 100%.
The only people able to afford them are the engineers at FCA...
So based on the feature packaging and build quality what do you think it’s worth?
Connecticut Dashcam 35k
@@matty1053 Wrangler has been setting sales records left and right. People can afford these.
Wow! Highway wind noise is insane 🤯don't know if i could handle it maybe it's just the rag top how about a 2021 review with hard top.
I prefer getting the hardtop on the jeep.
Edgar -69x do they have wind noise
Tod Smith yes but way less
its crawling time
For that price, I wouldn’t even take it on a dirt road much less a trail.😳💰
Brian buy the sport, it’s around 35-40k
yay been waiting for this one
Love the review and the Jeep! Not related to the review but what was the first song you played? Lol thanks
"bro this too expensive I'd just get a Ford Raptor" People are getting way too good at irony.
Shoulda kept straight at 2 mins and stopped at Karl's! Great vid.
makes me want a jeep 😳
Overpriced.
I think the same thing but since Jeeps really are one of a kind and people will always want them, they can charge whatever they want. Also, Fiat doesn't have as much money as most manufacturers and putting a high price on the Jeep is their way of making up for it.
@@joelrepass2379 I would never buy a fiat pos, now a Dodge or Jeep bc their made by them. I've heard horrer stories from the new ram. Their quality sucks ass. I wouldn't buy this piece of garbage, even if I had all the money in the world
ChevyDude I think it is mostly a first year production issue because the FCA reliability is going up and they do have a new CEO who is English American. Their new cars are far more technologically advanced than what others are putting out so that is what I would expect to happen but in the next year or 2 they will probably work the kinks out.
@@campbell0162 the big 3 are all garbage today from Ford's cabin water leaks and 5.0 engine knocking issues, Chevys highway shake and AFM problems, and FCA's leaking cabins and electrical issues. Cars today aren't what they were in the 90s-mid 2000's
@@joelrepass2379 Actually, Fiat is one of the 6 largest automative companies in the world. Most people have no idea of this, because Fiat's automotive USA division is very small. They already announced that in 2 years all their Fiat vehicles in the US will no longer be imported. Sales are poor and their quality is poor. However, they are going to pour a LOT of money into Jeep for many years to come. I should mention that Fiat also manufactures airline engines, truck engines, even train engines. this is actually why Fiat is so large in other countries. So in reality, my stating, automative investing, is only a slice of what makes them so large as a global company . The future of Jeep for Fiat Chrysler is extensive, look at the Gladiator as a good example. FCA is an (association) not corporation with Jeep. So, Chrysler has an open book to make the Jeeps top vehicles in their class, or any class. Basically Chrysler now has the resources to go wild on the Jeep brand. Exactly what they needed. They essentially invested huge money into Jeep which is why the new Jeeps, especially the Wrangler are now top of their game. My 19 Unlimited Sahara is at the same quality level as the vehicle I traded in , a Kia Sorento SXL-V6. I had a Range Rover Evoque before that. That started falling apart the day I purchased it. I had 4 new Jeeps in 90,92,95,97. They were reliable even though Consumer Reports rated them horribly. They actually still do. The seats in my 19 are incredibly comfortable and I love getting in it every time I drive it, no matter how long or short the drive. Not sure why their are so many reviewers that complain about wind noise. It does make more wind noise then most vehicles but it isn't obnoxious. I can have normal volume conversations on the highway. They are damn expensive but you actually get a lot of features and safety into the new package. People don't realize just how expensive it is to add so much into a Wrangler. I got the advanced safety package which includes slow and fast active braking and park assist. The Uconnect system is the best Nav and Apple car play on any vehicle. Super fast and easy to use. It makes BMW and Mercedes systems look horrible. Okay, enough ranting. Enjoy.
Really loved JL
Scotty be like *_UNRELIABLE ENDLESS MONEY PIT_*
But that is true, why your hatin
also Scotty: "The only car worth driving is a '94 Toyota Celica!"
@@MrSomnix he never said that. Lying is a sin.
Wut? Scotty actually recommends the Wrangler if you are going to buy a Jeep.
Rich people get all the cool cars :D
Dushmanu Munkinboy yea that’s why I’m going for a used one much cheaper
Jeep is my favorite car I always wanted a jeep I always wanted to drive I wish I could drive
i like how where you live you can just drive off the road and make a u turn on the snow. if you did that where i live you’d be screwed
Good review. Was that regular or premium soft top?
Having now driven both the 6 cylinder with the manual and the turbo 4 with the auto, curious as to which combo you prefer.
I got the 6. i don't trust a brand new design Turbo 4 in any vehicle. The 6 is strong, fast, and has a great history for durability.
The v4 is definitely quick but I love the sound of the v6
The only problem with Jeep 2019-2020 is the play in steering wheel. it annoys a new driver a lot when it required to put lot of afford to keep jeep in lane. i took it to the dealership and according to them nothing wrong with it but if you see on jeep form and everyone own 2019-2020 has same problem and no recall has been issued yet.
A Wrangler built for off road does not get sports car steering. It is that way for a reason. It does not look like play in the steering , just a slower ratio.
johnnyedify thanks for your reply friend. I drove older models (below 2018) never had such difference as newer has.
Look! A car that can flip!
Quincy Jackson It’s not a car it’s a Jeep the one an only since 1941 everything else is just a copy
Those little square mirrors are horrible.
true dat
51k for a jeep gtfo. Sorry for that kind of money I'll just get into a Raptor or a Power Wagon
pilot steve: Raptor for 50k is Years old- vs new.
good luck finding a raptor for 51k.. unless you're getting the older 6.2 model, but theres going to be atleast 40k miles on those as well.. raptors are ridiculous in resale
A fully speced out Raptor and Power Wagon cost 65k
^not true at all
Or you could just get an older Jeep for a cheaper price.........
My dream car
Do a review on the Kia Telluride
It does come with heated seats and steering
Thank you so much for this review! You answered a lot of my questions!
Wait it has adaptive cruise container when
I was planning to buy one but the wind noise for me is overwhelming...not for me!
Then get a hardtop it cuts the noise in half
its a jeep
Can you please review Nissan Murano,thanks
I want this car😭
I really am starting to like the Wrangler’s exterior as beforehand I did not like the exterior
should get your hands on a colorado z71. everyone does the zr2 now
Aye Michigan gang 💯
My mom been drive for 25 years
Lovely My dream car jeep wrangler
The JL is notorious for having a leaky roof.
MSRP he stayed is wrong. No Wrangler Unlimited Sahara goes for an MSRP of 38K.
MSRP is 51K
NADA/KBB is 38K
Hope your sway bar is still intact
Please don’t laugh but can you do the Ford Ecosport 1.0 turbo?
stay away from it, they are PIGS on gas, better off with the regular 2 liter and it will last much longer
Ecosport? Yuck! That's the garbage that we used to only subject Latin America to, that somehow is now for sale in the US. Ugly, slow, poor handling, and not even that economical.
DumbDuck44 I know; but they did a POV of the Toyota CHR. I’m just want hear what he says about the Ecosport.
@@BoopSnoot you forgtot to add that all Ecosports are fully built in INDIA. Third World Car built in a Third World Country and sold in the US!! Way to Go Ford!! By the way I was born in Argentina and have been living in Canada since 1984. Currently in Argentina now for holidays. I know all about the Ecosport, if you think the current one is bad you should have seen the first generation that came out here in 2003. At least now it is the Third generation and Much Improved over the Original. The fact that it is built in India and SO expensive is unforgivable. The ones that they sell in south america are built in Brazil and much worse quality than the ones sold in US and Canada built in India. I would stay away from them.
this Wrangler Unlimited or a Grand Cherokee Trailhawk? My wife has a Wrangler itch, but I don't think she knows what she would be getting into with the Wrangler Unlimited. She loved her '04 Pathfinder and I think the GC Trailhawk would better suit her (needs) than a Wrangler. The only problem is we see a Wrangler every 5 minutes in our SW OH area. Wranglers are cool, but I'm not totally in board...yes, yes, happy wife, happy life; but if her "dream" car turns about to be less than desirable, then what?
The blue metallic and tan leather really pop!
If it's automatic then why does it have a stick for shifting!!? I'm a car dummy, someone please explain to me my head hurts 🤕🤧
Love the new JL, but not the Sahara trim. Has to be a Rubi or built-up Sport. I’m not feeling those silver inserts & larger wheels on the Saharas - ruins the whole vibe.
Drive a Sahara, it's amazing, the vibe is insanely nice.
You laugh at the steering being unresponsive! That’s a defect Not normal and Jeep has not fixed it yet.
Lenny7118 have they fixed it for yours yet? Recall for fix at your dealership?
You’re paying for a name and and an image. No quality to back up the cost.
Explain
Harriet tummy any SUV with those dimensions isn’t going to be great, however it’s not bad for a large SUV. Even so, how is this in any way a sign of poor quality? There’s no correlation. People don’t buy wranglers for good gas mileage
The quality and image you're paying for is shown when you take it off road.
jlv3x people acting like ridiculous crawl ratio (2.72:1 low range), 4:1 heavy transfer case, locking diffs front and rear, ability to disconnect sway bars, hill decent control, heavy skid plates, factory 33 inch tires, and beefed up axles is just all free of cost or something. Off road equipment isn’t cheap by any stretch.
@@nathanmaynard131 They also act like Wranglers are just a "name" and "image" and treat it like a CRV.
Can you drive the Jeep hardtop on the highway ?
Want to know the noise difference comparing to the soft-top.
I just got a 2018 JL Sahara Unlimited 2.0 litres turbo with hard top. Then I got MOPAR headliner fixed inside the hard top, noise reduction more than 60%
Oh my god i want this car so bad
How big of a difference would the wind noise be with the hard top?
7:50 Chevy had no turning signal at all.
CuteFox kKa
Anyone tried it , iam willing to buy one but i heard a lot of negative feedback about the steering wheel, could anyone advise please
i can evn hear the turbo
This road noise sucks. Dude, do a 4runner review.
Which wrangler has the cup holders on the bottom?
Land Rover should've learned from Jeep Wrangler when they designed the new Defender...
Is your car a manual or an automatic?
So I’m looking for a car I’m 4”11 which car is best for me
What does that thing near the transmission lever thing do?
Awesome
4:47 is when the driving starts. Your welcome
Road asmr
I LIKE
Too fancy for a wrangler. I'll hold onto my 17 JK
