Thank you for featuring my 392!!!

[@russellbecker1903]

Those badges and taillight inserts are awesome looking. Did you paint those yourself or buy them somewhere?

[@Rad392jeep]

@@russellbecker1903I bought the items and sent them to Distinction Applied for customization.. and as always Brian and his team hit it out of the park! 🎉❤

Picked up my 24 Rubicon 2 weeks ago it was expensive but waited 22 years. I am very happy with it.

[@DUNEATV]

The base Rubicon with the extreme 35 inch tire package is the sweet spot!

[@waynebrucemanbat5787]

Yeah, it's still insanely expensive but I might buy one at the end of the year if they have any deals on them. I'm worried this will be the last year to get a Wrangler before they do something dumb to them like move to an electric motor etc.

[@DUNEATV]

@@waynebrucemanbat5787 That’s exactly why I bought my 2024 XR!

[@waynebrucemanbat5787]

@@DUNEATV nice! Enjoy it. I'm saving up to pay cash by the end of the year. Going to live like a poor person until I can get as close as possible and try to haggle the best deal I can

[@DUNEATV]

@@waynebrucemanbat5787 I did the opposite… my local dealer had the color combination I wanted so I bought it and then now I am throwing every dime I could make in overtime and even selling a few things putting all my money towards it. Already have it down $6000 in three months!

[@woodystubb686]

Got my 21 Rubicon fully loaded for 57k ,24 base model Rubicon 49k then you add the upgrades,man seems to me jeep is pricing itself right out of the market in my opinion ,love the video guys 👍

[@baconfacegamer792]

i mean every other car is like that these days.

[@sandralittleton8812]

I have a 2 door Willys in Earl., but it's a 2023. I am slowly getting all the mods done, that now come in the recon package. It is my favorite Wrangler that I have owned. Love this channel! Interesting content for someone who knows very little about Jeeps.

[@leemen]

Something also cool for the 24 Willy’s is it now has the wide track axles. So same track width as a rubicon.

[@asdfjkl426]

Wow. This is the best 'call out the different features' new Jeep model comparison video I've ever seen! Super information packed.

[@sonnicman]

This is a hard one, Matt. I think if I were going to lease a vehicle and turn it back in in a few years, I'd go with the Willys. But if my intention were to keep the vehicle for a very long time, say over 5 years, I would go with the Rubicon.

[@WreckedBrewery]

I thought long and hard between Willys and Rubicon. There is a lot of value in the Willys for sure, but I wanted some options that came standard on Rubi so I went that route. I think Jeep did a good job giving more to Willys this year so it will fit the bill for a lot of people that don't quite want a Rubi.

[@stefanentzeroth9027]

Im so excited my 24 willys finally has a ship date, end of the month! v6 with a manual!

[@dad3562]

How’s the transmission feel? How do you like it so far? 4.10 gears?

[@Dc-ee8hn]

As a 2024 Wyllis owner I’ve been waiting for this one. Thank you. I also have the Earl

[@justinvanhouten5551]

After waiting 8 months I picked up my 4dr MT Willys 2 weeks ago, and it has exceeded my expectations.

[@peterc8979]

Nice color, enjoy

[@Dino860]

I figured it was yours when you said, “I ordered” when you were talking about the cold weather option. Great video. Love your content, I am a big fan going back to CJ Pony days.

[@GMS-jt3nn]

Thanks for the great head to head comparo, something that a lot of us do when looking at vehicles on the lot. Easy to get lost in all of the differences in packages and trims. Nice to have it clearly spelled out while standing in front of two popular trims. Bonus, now you can get the 35 Recon in a 2 door, Willys & Rubicon!

[@SteveC-h9x]

I love the Willys also. I have my 2024 Willys and already started some upgrades. The Bronze stitching on the interior looks great. Thanks for the comparison you guys are fun to watch and I love the partners that you have Lindsey is Awesome!

[@jeffcarter9646]

I built a Rubicon with the Manual transmission in Granite Crystal Metallic... Hopefully I'll get it in a month or so... This is My first Jeep... I'm so looking forward to seeing mine!!!

[@justinvanhouten5551]

I waited 8 months for Willy's Manual transmission. I love it, it has far surpassed my expectations.

[@DiveBC]

I've ordered a 2024 2 door Willys with a manual transmission in high vilocity yellow.. Choose it because it has everything I want and need. I speced it with the convenience package which adds the heated seats Ext as well as the proximity locks. Now to wait the few months riding the motorcycle in the Pacific northwest (currently the EV is broken and in the shop again. Back to a jeep I go) for it to come in. Can't wait. Thanks for the video

[@dgracias12]

Hi. Great choice! How long did it take from ordering it to finally getting it? looking to get something similar but in green or the Anvil color. Thanks in advance and congrats!!!👍

[@dgracias12]

Hi. How long did it take from the time you ordered it to the time you got it? I'm looking for the same setup but with either green or anvil color. Thanks in advance and congrats! 👍

[@DiveBC]

@@dgracias12 mine took about 2 months to arrive back in January till March. It's been a great rig

[@Dmh06178]

Cool Jeep Carlos! Thanks Ryan and Matt- great comparison

[@creative_rides]

There’s always a plus side to each Jeep model, I love the rubicon but also love the Willys for the price

[@davidwood974]

This is very helpful, thank you and safe travels

[@GoldenK9Campers]

Thanks for doing this video. The Willy's is now a real impressive trim.

[@gtamantube]

they should retrofit the side curtain airbags if people want to install them

[@sonnicman]

7:55 Carlos, that is a nice rig. Hopefully, you can make it up to the All Breeds Jeep show. If not, then perhaps GSMJS.

[@jlautomotive6349]

These are two great looking jeeps not to mention the viewers rig is gorgeous!! So you can option the rubicon/mojave fenders on lesser trims or just the Willie’s with the extreme recon?? The Willy’s would be the perfect spec if you weren’t going to modify your jeep!?! As always guys, keep up the incredible work!! 👍

[@dcman4902]

Let’s be honest, most don’t care for a 392 cause most of us can’t caught out 100k for one.. lol. So why bother even looking? It’s like looking at a Ferrari, oh that’s cool… but never gonna be able to afford one so why even bother? More of a status symbol anyways, you don’t really need all the extra crap at the end of the day.

Nice comparison. I dig the Willys in this vid.

[@djuell01]

Your Wrangler is still for sale down there, I am surprised someone didn't snatch it up. I would have if I didn't recently buy my JLUR.

[@begrateful8934]

Only 55k 🤣🤣🤣🤣 thats why they keep these prices like this. This bozo thinks 55k for a willys recon is a good deal SMH

[@st5637]

Willys with extrem recon is such a great deal!

[@petersantulli2337]

Love the extreme package but hate in the Willys you have to get the 2.0L turbo. If you had the 6 as the option it would be my choice.

[@searles400]

2.0 is the better engine. More TQ, roughly same Hp, better fuel economy and so much faster

[@petersantulli2337]

@@searles400 working in a garage the last couple years has given me a new look on turbos. They don’t last.

[@scrambler350]

@ 1:37 - aren't the hood "vents" fake....? ...or should I say, just decorative.

[@bobnoblesjr.465]

Are they equipped with the full float rear axles? If not, what jeep are they on. The full fliat rear should be on EVERY jeep. That Willys one is sweet!

[@peterc8979]

Great review!

[@KlausVillaca]

Good video, I like to see news about Jeep and off road cara and trucks. I have noticed that cars price are increasing for a while, does anyone knows the real reason for it? (Maybe an idea for the next videos). Keep up those videos coming they are good.

[@davidplotkin5173]

Just found your channel and subscribed. Terrific explanation, hitting all the right points! Thank you! I have a request for a recommendation ---- Will retire and travel the USA going to parks, forest service roads, car camping and hiking for a week or two at a time. Don't want rock crawl or "taking the hill" or sketchy roads (ie Rubicon level) but want to be READY for that challenging forest service road if I come across it. Much paved road and highway travel and daily driver when home. What is the best Jeep (and Bronco - yikes!) you'd recommend I look into and why?

[@davidplotkin5173]

PS: I liked better rather than worse mileage, and yes I know about 4xe and how it varies greatly in actual mpg .... also have heard the "discomfort and noise" or much paved road travel. Your thoughts?

[@ahmednesbitte4906]

Very nice video

[@GentleGiantFan]

Crazy on the prices. My base Rubi was $39k. What size are the wheels on the Rubi?

[@chrisdakins2010]

Is the Willy’s stock ride height the same as the rubicon? I know the Willy’s has 33’s and the same fenders but is the rubicon lifted?

[@Dc-ee8hn]

Would installing lights on the side above the bumper where the fake vent is void the warranty ? I ordered lights that are turn signals and also turn on when the doors open

[@duncanatr]

I own a 2001 Wrangler Sport and I cannot possibly imagine spending 55k for a new Wrangler.

[@ArtbyPatrickPetruccello]

Great video..love that Willys, it looks great.

[@Gzus]

Can you get a 2024 2-door Willys with the Xtreme Recon package?

[@1arry11egend]

No longer the affordable really. But, maybe the used market looks better. Gladiators are a bit more affordable at the moment.

[@TealOxAdv]

Great video. For me, the Rubicon X is the way to go for the power seats alone (I’m 6’5” and need the flexibility they provide). Saying that, the updated Willys is probably the perfect Jeep for most people.

[@amankahlon9651]

Which one would you recommend. A Willy’s Xtreme recon 2.0, Willy’s Xtreme recon 3.6 or Willy’s 4XE and get 35’s?

[@michaelcowin6442]

The 2.0 will sit higher and get better gas mileage. Plus, it's fast on take offs.

[@plaquatra]

Why is it a $4500 upgrade for an automatic Jeep site for a 2024?!?! I'm so sick of seeing "Wrangler starting at $31k" Such bs...

[@JaredDallin]

I think they need to go back to the high tide options

[@bval0014]

Why is the 2.0 the cheaper motor now? Previously it was always an upgrade from the 3.6

[@keithharrier]

The base comes with a 3.6 liter and a 6 speed manual. The 2.0l makes you do the automatic. And then the 2.0l auto is the cheapest and the 3.6l costs more with the automatic

[@eddieallen7751]

I have a 2021 jeep Willy’s :) I really want a 2024 Willy’s loving the content keep it up

[@gowheelin1]

Proximity makes it easy to steal.

[@johngreene920]

I have a question about your last Rubicon. Is it normal that on startup, the 4cyl turbo sounds like a diesel? I recently traded a 13 jku 3.6 for an 18 Sahara with the 4cyl. The Sahara sounds like the valve are floating right out of the heads😂. I really love this Jeep otherwise.

[@pablomalaga4676]

Is the 2.0 as reliable as the 3.6?

[@dwaynevarnell9157]

MSRP only $55K I must be simple because I would never pay that. Ever on anything.

[@DuyenNguyen-ui6mo]

I like the Willy’s better

[@DUNEATV]

Why? You don’t want all the extra stuff the Rubicon comes with?

[@DuyenNguyen-ui6mo]

No Sir, it has to do with my past life as a Soldier.

[@leemen]

For me the front locker, 4-1 transfer case and the electric sway bar is worth the extra money.

[@DUNEATV]

@@DuyenNguyen-ui6mo Ohh ok 👍🏻

[@quitoduck]

I've got a '24 Willys 2 dr in Anvil and I love it. All the changes they made to the Willys package from '23 to '24 is what made me get the Willys.

[@shiftintohigh5564]

The vented non vented hood?

Better have a golden seat throne before I spend 51k on a vehicle.

[@rhphotocdn]

Willy's is nice, but why that God awful grey dash...

[@GMS-jt3nn]

It is light gray and it is fabric. I know cause I own one. It is going to get dirty and will be difficult to keep clean. Love the heather seats with the gold stitching, kinda makes up for the dash!

[@Performance_Motorsports]

Okay guys, you bought a 392, now heard you just ordered the yellow Rubicon...whats up?

We ordered the yellow one back in July but pulled the trigger on the 392 instead.
