  • With over 30 years of history, there are few trucks and SUVs that have such a rabid following as the Jeep Wrangler. We review the Sport, Sahara and Rubicon. The combination of utility, capability and affordability is what attracts so many people. There are other choices such as the Toyota Tacoma, 4Runner, Chevy Colorado and Ford Ranger but the Jeep is unique in the segment.

    I agree when you said it's an emotional purchase. When I purchased my old Wrangler, it was because I have always dreamed of owning one but couldn't afford one until I saw a really good deal for a used one. But after three years of owning it, dealing with a lot of the negatives I've experienced (death wobble, fluttering hood, water leaking from the roof and so many more), I have scratched that itch and come to the realization that it just wasn't the vehicle I dreamed it to be. It isn't a vehicle catered for everyone, but for those lucky few who get the most joy out of it, it's a match made in modding heaven.

    I gotta say, I love your super-wide angle shots in tight spots on the underbody. And in this episode, there's surprisingly little distortion of the image at the periphery. It's definitely a creative way to give a better look at cramped spaces. This is one of many reasons I appreciate your videos. You always seem to be upping the production value with each episode.

    Great review Mark. I’ve had my JLUR for 2 years now and I’m still drawn to your review. Over 50 trails (many of them “hardcore”) later, my JL has proven durable and reliable. Now on 35’s and a 2.5” Mopar lift, I feel I’ve turned a corner from “fun vehicle” to a very long term vehicle. It’s really a great rig. Funny you mention the Miata in your review... I also have a 2020 Miata RF club, that I’m equally enthusiastic about.

  • @dil6969
    @dil6969 5 ปีที่แล้ว +111

    I agree with people that the price is eye-watering, but holy fuck these drive so much nicer than the previous generation. FCA made a real effort here, even if it isn't what everyone wants. If you really want a hardcore Wrangler you're probably going to buy an older one anyway. Attitudes and markets change. Cars that fail to adapt will cease to exist. I'd rather have a normie Wrangler than no Wrangler at all.
    Every car from every category is more refined now. For instance, a 2019 Miata, while light and small, is a far more comfortable car to spend time in than my 1991. Yet, it's still a Miata. The Wrangler, while being purpose-built to off-road in the beginning, is still a mass-market car that FCA needs to tweak in order to attract the largest possible audience. Like it or not, we enthusiasts are the minority, and appealing only to us will not make a car successful.

But until you drive Rubicon with doors and top off you don't know what you missing. The people who love the Jeep or just the same cult as the Miata Club.

    I like that the JL Rubicon is sooo capable. This is something you buy and leave the hell alone. I mean nothing not even rims and tires. The Sahara is the same but for more on road use. If you buy the x or the sport then you can freely modify to hearts content. These are very expensive but hold the value well, just prey you get a model with good weld joints( issue on early JLs). As always top notch videogeneeering Goose man! Please more comedy bits with Toddd.

    My second car (and the first car I chose for myself) was a used Jeep Wrangler TJ Sport, with the 4.0L engine and 5-speed manual. Except for the sound bar it was bare-bones - didn't even have AC. First thing I did was to get rid of the steel doors and replace them with cloth soft doors. Drove it open whenever possible. It was the best car I ever had in terms of fun - and, incidentally, in terms of reliability, too. Daily drove it for over eight years and the only out-of-schedule-maintenance was a wobbly turn signal stalk that had to be replaced for 30 bucks. That's it.
    Now, I'm driving a by comparison very refined, modern car which gets better MPG, is much safer and more luxurious - but it has become just an appliance.. a way to get from A to B, nothing more. But it is hard to justify to go back to a 20 MPG (or lower) vehicle - considering I drive mostly highway and the impact it would have on cost and environment. Also, the new Wranglers are just too fancy. Ah well, that's what video games are for... :P

      Yeah I traded my 2017 Fusion with 4500 miles for a 2016 Rubicon with 22,000 miles and lost my ass financially.
      No regrets.
      Same as when I traded my 2014 Focus for the 2015 F150.
      When it's what makes you happy, the rest is irrelevant.
      IF I commuted like you do, I wouldn't have traded the Fusion. In no way is it a bad car. It's just that it's a car. No way would I commute in the Wrangler. It's kind of miserable. 😂

      @@pimpmyride7278 Probably why there are so many used ones on dealer lots. They can't afford to make the Jeep a toy and commuting blows in it. So alas they trade for something normal.
      I'm fortunate that even if I drove it every day, work is less than 6 miles and a state highway rather than interstate highway.
      Even for that I'm like...nah. 😂

      dchawk81 - Man, I hate to admit it.. but your comments helped me realize the Jeep isn’t for me. I wanted a fun truck (was considering the Gladiator) but I would use it as a daily and if it’s that bad.. I better not risk it. It sounds like the Jeep is a good secondary vehicle.. one you take out on weekends for a little fun. If I could afford two vehicles I would do it.. but I can only get one good all purpose vehicle. Well.. Tacoma may be the winner here.

    Ive had a 2019 Sahara Unlimited for the last week while my truck was at the dealership for repairs. I felt the drivers seat was kind of cramped. I wear size 14 shoes and with Columbia outdoor boots on I had very little left over foot room. The model i've had is the removable hard top. Sadly it's been cold or rainy so I haven't been able to take it off but that being said it is extremely noisy. Which is to be expected. It is enjoyable to drive though. The transmission is great. The Jeep and the New Ram Rebel have the best "truck" transmissions I have ever driven. I took the jeep off road down some of the same trails that I take my 4x4 truck through and the jeep felt like it was having a much easier time then my truck down the same trails even without locking diff's on the Sahara. I can see why it has a cult following. I don't think I would want one as my daily driver but it would be a great second vehicle for me.

    Great vid as usual, but the biggest thing I'm taking away from this is that FCA has a Pentastar V6/manual combo that for some reason is not being put in the Challenger and Charger. A base model Challenger/Charger with this combo would sell pretty well I think, so if you're watching Mr. Gilles, please consider it!

      @@anthonygiordano3991 I said best ever I, me, myself, not you, not them but I have owned. He has his opinion and I have mine. Not everyone likes them. I have had Jeeps for a long time and this is by far the best one I have owned. Its comfortable, quiet especially with the hard top. I don't do the soft tops. Its either hardtop or nothing other than my #spiderwebshade for a bit of shade. It drives nice even though mines lifted and now on 35 inch tires. Its amazing off road. Took it to Moab and I was amazed at what it handled.

      Slightly Less Fat - I’m just trying to decide on buying my first Jeep. I’ve never owned one and I don’t off-road, I just like the look and the way you can modify them. I’m considering either the two door Wrangler or the Gladiator. You’re right, everyone has their own opinion but the problem is, some guys say they are noisy, only good as a secondary vehicle, not reliable, not safe, horrible daily’s, and would never drive them on the highway because they’re too loud. But then I get guys like you, who say it’s the best vehicle, it’s not that bad, it’s quiet and a nice ride. It’s really hard to determine what to believe! I haven’t test driven it yet but how much can you really get from a 10 minute test drive? I appreciate any of your recommendations and thanks for your feedback.

      @@anthonygiordano3991 I have to apologize. I read your comment as snarky to my comment. Let me re-reply to you:
      The best thing you can do is go drive one. The JLU has come along way even from the 2018 JKU. I have heated seats and steering wheel with cloth interior. You can get them in leather, which I do not like because I can't imagine having the panels and roof off with the sun heating them up to hotter than the surface of the sun, then setting my bare legs on them. Yeesh! But that's just me. The Gladiator is cool. Its like the best of both worlds. 7600# payload Wrangler with a truck bed. But, like I said, go test drive all the models and see what works for your budget. Go check out my TH-cam channel. I have a few videos on my Jeep.

I’m just doing so much research right now and trying to learn as much as possible. I don’t want to have buyers remorse. I might even ask you a few more questions, if you don’t mind.

    Ppl rarely get it right when they do reviews. But I think you guys got it pretty close to exactly right. Take the good with the bad, Pro's with the Cons and its NOT the best vehicle on the road. Buttttttt we didn't expect it to be! We justtttt wanna get muddy and get dirty and OFF ROAD! Haha for someone who's owned 3 Jeeps I can tell you, you got it exactly right. The Jeep Wrangler Sahara when you get up to highway speeds it really is quite shaky and that's just something one has to know before buying and be somewhat comfortable with and get used to. The hard tops really aren't as bad though. I also owned a Patriot, the Patriot is good for just ripping around the city, its almost just like a car and gets fairly good gas mileage. The Jeep I own now is my favorite Jeep I have ever owned by far. I suggest anyone who likes Jeeps and wants the best of both worlds, as far as off road capability AND Luxury and comfort, I suggest you go for and or try out the Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. That's what I have now. I have a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. Bought it back into 2017. Loveeeeeee it, love it, love it, love it, love it. Haven't had single problem with it since I've owned it. Its so comfortable and luxurious. I'm just comfortable in it. I love how it feels to drive. Especially in the Winter and it goes off road really well. There are no issues high way driving, its actually quite comfortable. The only thing is, its about $100 to fill up the entire tank. So all my fill ups are done@ Costco where I save about $10/per fill up lol. So the Grand Cherokee gives owners the Off Road AND Luxury. The Patriot gave me a nice little compact experience, that was still fairly good off road believe it or not. It couldn't go everywhere my Grand Cherokee can go, butttt it got me to most of the places I wanted to go and ONLY COST half of what it costs to fill up my current Grand Cherokee. I miss my Patriot, but I'm happy to have moved onto something bigger and better. Love how high I sit up in my Grand Cherokee now. I'm honestly just super happy to be driving it every day and I feel super privileged. I enjoyed the review guys!

    Interesting video, in that I used to live in Woodstock Illinois, where the thumbnail picture and opening scene was recorded in downtown Woodstock Square. I’m getting a new Sahara, so I appreciate this video, which is letting me know why I didn’t need the Rubicon, especially when it comes to the miles per gallon.
    Speaking of that, interestingly enough, I was amazed at how good the gas mileage was when I rented a brand new 2019 Sahara with 5000 miles on it in West Palm Florida for a week. On the highway I was getting 26 mpg, 28, even 30.1 MPG! I couldn’t freaking believe it! (this was on the Florida turnpike, which is nothing but flat.) This was before I found out it had an eight speed transmission, which made sense after I found that out. But at one point I was doing 68 mph at 1800 RPMs and getting 28, 29 mpg! 😳
