Sold my 2007 Wrangler yesterday. Had it for 16 years - it was with me the whole time in the Navy, it's where I asked my wife to be my girlfriend back in the day... So many memories, but I sold it for the 2024 Gladiator Willy's. I don't regret it at all. I love my Gladiator!
@@SpaceGringos3D I bought my 2024 Willy almost a month ago and I love it. Mine didn't come with KO2's though. Mine came with Falkon Wildpeaks MT in a 33 configuration. The Uconnect Dash is literally not noticeable during driving.
The 35's, 4.56 gears and all the rest of the cool stuff is only available on the 4 door, not 2dr. Not interested in the 4dr so I bought a Rubicon X 2 dr with 4.88s, manual, etc..got everything but the kitchen sink.
I grabbed a runner in 2023, but man there’s a lot of things about the jeep that I do like. If only they were more reliable. But what I can do is try to make a little bit more money so I could have both. That’s the solution.
I currently have a 22 Rubicon 4xe, but if I had to get a new 2024 Jeep, I'd opt for the Willy's 4xe instead of the Rubicon 4xe. Its such a great all around package at a much better price point. I think Jeep has done so well with the 2024s.
The clutch is the issue. Jeep has put a stop sale on all 2023 units with a MT. Dealers cant even sell used ones. This is also delaying 2024 orders. Supposedly there is a fix in the works but not sure on timing. I know people that have changed their orders to an AT and received their 2024 Jeep.
Dashboard is awful, felt material. Don't spill your drink or get mud on it. Front dash screen is a joke, looks like a Tesla, w half a backup camera. Ill keep my 2021 80th anniversary. But i do like the new grill.
Totally wishing I had this version of the Willys Jeep for sure. It has all I want in a jeep for sure. I am currently running a Fully loaded Ram 1500 Warlock, lots of customizations and had it ordered with the 392 gear set. Been amazing off road, but this keeps got me looking at downsizing for sure!
12:21 The backup camera does not have a wide angle lens thats mated to the physical width of the screen on the dash. Either a wider angle lens, and you lose some definition, and or crop the image down with a lens that has output larger than the screen, or digitally stretch the video feed using software, and also lose some definition. Very minor complaint IMHO.
Got mine 2 months ago. Exact same thing except mine is V6. So far , it's been a blast so far especially when you take the top off. It's a bit hard on gas but i don't mind it since i work close from home.
It's amazing what they have done. Much better than privious. I wonder if we can install the whole dash from the 2024 onto the older version? Has anyone done that? I love the new screen. Looks cool.
It better be a better build today because I remember 2020-22 Rubicon's going for bone stock 43k no options and that's with 4-1 transfer case 4.10 gears and front disconnects not to mention the Fox shocks and beefier axles. This with no options is sitting at 46k. People we are getting robbed in front of our own eyes.
A lot of stuff is standard now. The Rubicon's back then were pretty basic. Halogen lights, small screens, no bells and whistles. They also added safety features, side airbags, etc... This is close to a Rubicon without the front locker and sway disconnect. And less aggressive crawl ratio.
I agree with the fenders needing to be the same. I think its sweet it gets an electronic locker now instead of just a trac lok in the rear. As for mentioning no axle disconnect, anyone needing front and rear lockers and sway bar disconnect can just get the rubicon since theyre close enough in price now.
Sway bar manual disconnects literally cost less than 100 dollars for any Jeep, and many jeepers prefer the manuals because they don’t automatically reconnect above I think 15 or 25mph
So I have the willys 2024 with extreme package . An hubby wants to go from 35 to 37 . What's your thoughts on keeping it 4.56 or go to 4.88 for the larger tire
Good luck with that new Uconnect5. We had a new 2023 Grand Cherokee L Limited with it and traded it back in after only 6 months. It is glitzy as a mofork!!! JD Power just reduced their rating on the Ram's due to issues with the Uconnect5.
The new 2024 Willys comes with 4:10s, which is relatively fine with this transmission and the 35s or 37s. You can always re-gear to a 4.56 for a bit steeper ratio. Cheers from the team at EPIC!
I had to erase all the trash talk I made on the internet about the 2.0 turbo😅😅.. I have one for a rental right now and it is great on fuel and more fun to drive than the 3.6..the only issue I would have to actually owning one is it sounds like bubble machine when you drive it.😂😂😂
Yeah, the 2.0L Turbo is a great engine. We added the Turbo Smart bypass valve for the awesome whooshing noises... much better now. Cheers from the team at EPIC!
It’s also the ‘gorilla glass’ that makes it Uber expensive. I do windshield replacements in Manitoba for MPI and my cost on that glass is $2500 😳 No joke the most expensive windshield I’ve ever seen
Backup cam would need to be replaced to use the whole screen. You can't just stretch the image on the screen. They should have just centered it and if the vehicle is equipped, used the left and right black space to show cross traffic indicators.
Showing LOVE for the channel Thank You for your coverage on this very fine piece of machinery me myself & I & beyond blessed to be able to say I will be a proud owner of one of these very fine pieces of machinery I've been saving up for years and I am beyond past due for a new vehicle and this is the one I want especially knowing the facts that I don't have to do no type of upgrading whatsoever it's all coming straight from the factory and personally speaking a Rubicon is a little too much for me personally or my little benches I take but this bad boy is going to be ideal perfect for my living situations and adventuring but thank you again man and y'all have a blessed day everyone. I'm Charlie Knight and I approve this message LoL have a gooden y'all
@@EPIC-4WDThank You again for this review on the 24 Whillys I've been waiting for a good minute well for several years for this opportunity to own one and knowing all the changes that's coming straight from the factory I'm personally excited I've always dreamed of being able to go trailing like you gentlemen do. Thanks again and have a blessed day everyone
I posted in a FB group that Willys should be based on a Rubi lite instead of a Sport with MT tires. The general concensus from the couch commenters was "you want a Rubi. get a Rubi." At the time the upgraded head unit was kind of rumored but i figured it would only be an option for the Rubi. So ibwent with the 23. In my opinion the 23 Willys with an XR package is a suitable Rubi lite. Wouldnt have minded the rear locker but absolutely hate the 24 head unit so glad I jumped on the 23 XR. The 24 Willys updates are awesome otherwise though.
Hey, nice video, I still love my 2020 rubicon ecodisel, with the mopar 2.5 lift kit o. 37s. Ginger, what can I change to get the most stable daily drive and also smooth in the highway, driving over 120k it's hard to control it. Thanks
At 56k usd at most dealers (some charging over 60k for a stock one) for the 2024 just get the rubicon. You’re already spending an arm, why not give them a leg. The lots also seem to just be full of 4xe currently. Hard to find just a regular ICE 2024 wrangler.
7:10 I’m going to have to crawl underneath my gf’s 24 Jeep Willys and see if it has U joints or CV joints. When I was playing around in 4x4 it sure felt like clunky U joints when I was turning sharp….
When I lived in Iceland, I purchased and drove a 1942 Willy's. It had an electric starter AND a crank if needed. It was left over from the NATO base there.
Agree on the dash. My sterring with stock tires seems loose. I had a Sahara Altitude that had stiffer steering and had a Rubicon a while ago with stiffer steering. Wish this had stiffer steering!!!! On the dash, maybe just dye it, cause it's gonna get filthy---- Now, how do I make my steering stiffer, this feels almost like a car, soft??? Other than that I like the Willys---- Living in Florida, it's just going to be a beach Jeep, no boulders around(trails in OCALA NATIONAL FOREST) & I just love my jeep wranglers, this one is a keeper----
They have me chained to the shop forced to make these videos, I found a file in the shop and been working on the shackles while no one is looking, hope to be free by 2025.
Love hearing the snarky Bronco comments. I love how you have next to no headroom, I sat in one and no dice. No storage in front of the shifter. Super tight cab. No thanks. Love my bronco with front and rear lockers, 35s and a bit of a lift all for less that that thing. Happy trails suckers!!!
The new 2024 Willys comes with 4:10s... so for most people on 35s or 37s it will be relatively fine. You could always re-gear to 4.56 for a steeper ratio.
I have a '22 Gladiator Rubi and it's on 37's and I'm trying to debate on regear. I hit 8th gear on flat land or slightly downhill, and gas mileage isn't utterly terrible but people say you HAVE to have 5.13's and the internet is full of chatter. Is it worth 3k to re-gear? Is 4.10 putting any issues on my tranny?@@EPIC-4WD
I like the improvements except the dash. For any and all who have watched or heard the video where the Engineers designed the JL interior to carry elements of all the previous jeeps. For me that screen and rectangular vents take away from that. Wish they would have given that more thought. For me, I like 8 inch screen as it allows me to run my Tablet without blocking the screen or windshield. Not sure I'd want to push my tablet past the new 12 inch screen. Lol.
Yea, at first blush it appears that the screen is just an afterthought and quick fix to compete with the Bronco, including the power seats. Cheers from the team at EPIC!
Finally don’t have to get a Rubicon to get a locker. Guessing the Bronco was an influence, although you can get 2 lockers still on the lesser Bronco models as an option.
Recon package adds on some other features. Good package if you're looking just to get a jeep and get exploring without any mods. Cheers from the team at EPIC!
i have this WILLY (feels weird saying that haha) and yes the cloth dash has me puzzled. if i feel like getting dirty when my top is off... how stained is that going to get? main difference i see is i got the actual matte black grill not the renegade left over grill.. sorry hahaha love your content
Any MT tire won't typically be great on the snow on the road or highway. Off-road they are great, aired down to 10PSI ;-) Cheers from the team at EPIC!
Heard they fixed it for 24-- put a gasket I between? Galvanic action, dissimilar metals! I'lll see. I just bought a 24 Willys. Fingers crossed■■■■■ haha... always something!!!

Today I picked up my 24 Willys, mainly because ginger is a good salesman, and the $6,000 In rebates were insane! I’ll learn to live with the dash. 😂😂

Absolutely no regrets! Love this Jeep. So much fun and a great Jeep straight from the factory.

Willys also got 4.10 gears for 2024, same as the Rubicon.

Yeah, it's actually a good option to keep the costs down in comparison to the Rubicon. Cheers from the team at EPIC!
@@EPIC-4WD That rear locker is a game changer
Im so glad they put the Dana 44 in the front to match the rear .. so as long as you are sensible you are good go with 37’s 👍
Does the rear axle use the same unit bearing full-floater setup as the '24 Rubicon, or did they keep the old semi-float design on these?
Full float in the rear
Love my 24 Willys! Almost went with a Sahara. I plan to mod with bigger tires. Happy with my decision.
Excellent choice and congrats on your new Willys! Cheers from the team at EPIC!
Ours will be here next week. Found one in California and we're doing a dealer trade.
may I ask what's your OTD price? I'm looking for one as well but seems too expensive

I paid 41k for my 24 Willy’s out the door. No options. I was able to get dealer discounts or it would have been close to 50k
A lot of stuff is standard now. The Rubicon's back then were pretty basic. Halogen lights, small screens, no bells and whistles.
They also added safety features, side airbags, etc... This is close to a Rubicon without the front locker and sway disconnect. And less aggressive crawl ratio.
Price any truck/suv-- they are all crazy expensive,
Jeep maybe a bit more!!!

Did you all end up regearing to go to 35s? I know you can get a regear with XR package but wasn’t sure if you thought it was needed for the 35s
The new 2024 Willys comes with 4:10s, which is relatively fine with this transmission and the 35s or 37s. You can always re-gear to a 4.56 for a bit steeper ratio. Cheers from the team at EPIC!

It’s also the ‘gorilla glass’ that makes it Uber expensive. I do windshield replacements in Manitoba for MPI and my cost on that glass is $2500 😳

Did it have the new high float Dana 44? Or did they decide to just put the previous year Dana 44 in it?
I Reside in Toronto and miss this perfect Mod badly
Does it need a lift if you slap 35s on instead of 37s?
I was told( by the dealer) no, ya don't need a lift for 35's
No rubbing, 37's need a lift
Could the axle disconnect be the reason why the 24 model is rated with less fuel efficiency?🤔

It's a great option. Just missing the 4:1 T-Case, Front Locker and Front Swaybar Disconnect. Cheers from the team at EPIC!
I wish Jeep had guys like you to veto those Foo Foo points you mentioned.
I ordered a 24 Willys with the Extreme Recon package as I do not intend to go any bigger that 35's, what do you think of the Recon package?
Recon package adds on some other features. Good package if you're looking just to get a jeep and get exploring without any mods. Cheers from the team at EPIC!
I like the idea of the screen but its a major after thought fail on how to revamp the dash to fit it.
Does the 24 willys have the rubicon axles also? Has the locker I know
Yes it does.

@patapeddler282 so we bought a 24 willys since I posted the quest I on last year. It has the read M220 and front M210 which is not a rubicon axle.
I think the 2024 4XE willys has 4WD auto and part-time function. I'm surprised the gas version does not have the auto.
Freedom increments! 😂😂😂😂

@@joshuawhittred-eo6kn Thanks for following along!
Looks like maybe they used the 392 steering wheel w/o the paddles ?
No sir. It's not the 392 steering wheel. It is wrapped in a different material tho! Cheers from the team at EPIC!
@@EPIC-4WD got it.👍🏻, Wasn’t sure. Cheers from So-Cal🍻
i have this WILLY (feels weird saying that haha) and yes the cloth dash has me puzzled. if i feel like getting dirty when my top is off... how stained is that going to get? main difference i see is i got the actual matte black grill not the renegade left over grill.. sorry hahaha love your content
steering with lift and bigger tires? yes frayed dash to match that renegade grill.
17 minutes of my life I will never get back
Ha ha! Reading and responding to your comment is 4.5 seconds of my life I will never get back.

How are those tires in the snow?
Any MT tire won't typically be great on the snow on the road or highway. Off-road they are great, aired down to 10PSI ;-) Cheers from the team at EPIC!
Is the corrosion issues included?
Heard they fixed it for 24-- put a gasket I between? Galvanic action, dissimilar metals! I'lll see. I just bought a 24 Willys.
Fingers crossed■■■■■ haha... always something!!!
2024 $55k Willis or for the same money 2023 Rubicon?
I had one of those had to get rid of it couldn't keep it on the road there's always something wrong with it but that's typical Chrysler
So good ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! Cheers from the team at EPIC!
Looks like a bronco at first glance!!
Have u regeared a 4xe to 4.88s?
