I have bought one and Im currently waiting for another to be built. Keep in mind that many Jeep owners add lifts, 37"-40" tires, heavy armor, bumpers, and winches. The power of the 392 laughs at the added weight while the V6 becomes even more of a dog that it already is, even with deeper gears. Jeep was also smart by making the Rubicon 392 full time 4WD which helps to efficiently put all the power to the ground. The Hellcat Rubicon you drove was 2WD which allowed the power to over power the chassis.

@@DefinitelyNotYouThankGod they been using the 3.6 since 2012 with the same pentistar output 285crank hp and 260 tq as the 2021. I’m pretty sure the only thing changed was gearing and trans therefore it’s always been a slow 💩 and slow in comparison to any v8. Also over priced. Never understood the following. Only one I like is the track hawk for apparent reason. 392 is s the way they needed to come the whole time as a base for cheaper.

A fairly loaded 3.6L V6 Wrangler stickers for around $65k. Another $13k gets you the 392 engine, Fox suspension, larger brakes, steel knuckles, CV joints, beefed up transmission, 392 exclusive leather seats, all of the safety groups, re-engineered ladder frame, etc. What owners are REALLY paying for is the exclusively, resale value and the satisfying V8 rumble that puts a smile on every owners face when pushing on the fun pedal.

It makes sense to me. A similarly equipped V6 Rubicon is over $60,000. Those who calculated the cost of a used (not new) 392 & trans + needed parts at $4-5000 are way underestimating all the costs needed to make the swap. I think you'd be way closer to $10,000 if you do all of the work yourself & end up with a used drive train. Maybe you could recoup a little by selling the old drive train. Having professionals do the new 392 swap will add $35,000 - $40,000, so you're right where the factory 392 cost (or more) with no factory warranty, etc. To me, buying a new factory 392 is a no brainer.

Agree 5.7 should be a option. Biggest down side for me is the fact you have to buy the best version to get that engine. 2nd down side is 90k is hellcat engine level. So it would be a hard no at that price point. Would love to see a 5.7 at least in the Gladiator. When lifting these vehicles it's such a drag to see how much effort the engine has go through with the V6 even with gears. Honestly need all the help they can get.

Great Jeep. Great options …what gets me is that you always say would you spend this cash for this Jeep if you’re not in a mountainous region. Or in the sticks. But what I say is….born and raised in Chicago …with hot summers, which the roof is perfect for…and tough tough winters..which the 4x4 is perfect for…why wouldn’t it be right for the upper Midwest in the burbs? This area has the worst streets…with pavement buckles, potholes, uneven surfaces. I gave up owning a car in Chicago…the suspension gets torn to shreds…you need a vehicle like this to handle these ‘off-road’ like conditions even though you’re not in the woods. I feel you guys miss the connection and should stress that more…I don’t need to off-road…but if you’re in Chicago, Jersey,New York, Boston. These have got to be the best option to handle the urban terrain…which can be just as deadly as the trails…believe it or not…great stuff X

I am picking up my 392XR on Friday. It is like Jeeps version of a G Wagon imho. I always liked Jeeps but never bought one because they lacked power and some other features I wanted in a daily driver. Now I can get a great utilitarian vehicle with off road styling AND power. It has just enough luxury, like heated seats/steering wheel and ACC, but still bare bones enough so i can hose it out. Everything I want in an SUV. Yeah, it is a little pricey but I think it is worth it. You can barely find one under $100k on a lot. They haven't made a lot of them and you can no longer even order one for '22. '23 will likely be last year of the 392 (replaced by the HO Hurricaine). It is a special car.

I bought the 392 XR and absolutely love this thing. If this is a niche vehicle then I must be the target demographic. It has all the chops found on the standard Rubicon but bonus...it screams. What other vehicle can you go anywhere and enjoy front and rear locking diffs, swaybar disconnect, nice appointments, lifted from the OEM with 35s, bead-lock capable bronze wheels, a beefed up chassis, and a 6.4 Hemi that takes you from 0-60 in 4.2 with 4.56 gears. WOW! So whether you roll on the streets, or in the bush this is one capable and insanely fun vehicle. I hear that it has a stereo. I would not know because I keep the One-Touch top open to listen to the Glorius exhaust notes coming from the back. Thanks, Jeep!

I ordered my first Jeep ever at the end of November in 2020. I ordered a 2021 JL Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. I ordered mine with the 3.6 liter V-6 w/ eTorque. About 2 weeks after I ordered my Jeep the 392 was announced. I was so freaking bummed. And then the Extreme Recon package was also announced too. Had I known those things I would have waited a few months and ordered a 392 with an Extreme Recon package. But oh well. Other than the eTorque, I love almost everything about my Jeep. It is definitely the most capable off road vehicle that I have ever owned. I do need to buy another truck though after I pay off my Jeep because I used the heck out of my trucks in the past. But that’s still another 2 to 3 years away.

Buying a 392 is a no-brainer choice. The resale value on used 392's are going higher than the markup on new ones. Jeep has cut off all 392 orders atm no one knows if they will open for MY23. Prices for existing new and used are going through the roof. Mine sits in my garage, it's going to be kept stock and low miles and no offroading. I have other jeeps to wheel and drive...the 392 is special and will be one of rare jeeps and why I bought it.

Funny you say that. I have on order with no markup but, the dealer had one on the lot somebody returned with 400 miles on it. Those are the ones being marked up, which they did. And they will resale very high because of the rarity factor. Unfortunately, I don’t have the discipline and will drive it into the ground.

Yeah I disagree when the hellcat motor comes in other platforms. Jeeps to me have always been overrated and to damn expensive even if it comes with a v6 and they still want 60k when it’s worth 20-40. Then they put the 392 in it that’s being phased out for a reason for way more when a scat can be had for less with less weight. If your going to spend the money I would just get the Durango hellcat, track hawk, or trx. Not saying it’s not nice just to expensive and hard to find for what it is to be middle of the tracks in the upper segment of payments. And dodge always acts like they are lambos when you try to look at them or they just don’t help you. I wanted an suv for my wife but all the Big 3 dealers don’t want to help you and if they do then no deals are given at all or they don’t want to let you test drive them. Shit I’ve even driven up in a hellcat and barely got help. I now understand why people buy Hondas. they actually help you and they are cheaper on fuel, lighter, plus last unlike dodge products. And with gas prices the way they are and all dodge products being heavy sales will go down.

My Dad had a CJ-5 back in the 60’s…indeed we cleaned it out with a hose. If I recall correctly it had a 4 banger. Not much power, but it was geared so low we could go up and down really steep grades easily. It just kinda slowly pulled you up those steep hills. It was reliable and built to withstand just about anything. But driving on the street was very much like torture. This thing you just tested looks like it would be a real hoot to drive both on and off road, but I don’t think you could really put that much power to use off road unless you were in some kind of desert race. I like Rubicons and I love Hemis…but unless I hit the lotto I don’t think this would be great investment. Just my $.02. I enjoyed the video and your insight.

One thing you didn't touch on was the fuel demands of the Rubicon 392. Obviously with the lower MPG because of the 6.4L, you're going to burn through a lot of what that 392 requires, and that's Premium grade fuel. As much as I wanted a 392 when they came out, I had a feeling that fuel prices were going to increase eventually, and being that you have to put Premium fuel in the tank, that was the deal breaker for me. Had they gone with a 5.7 like in my Ram Rebel, that would have been easier on MPG and fuel costs. When they start dropped the I6 Hurricane in these, that'll be a game changer.

This is a special edition vehicle, so of course the price is “special”. It’s a smooth riding go anywhere sleeper! Plus the MPG is basically the same as my JKU was. It’s definitely a niche vehicle, but it checked all my boxes (e.g. V8, small SUV, AWD, 4WD, rugged, fast, mod-able, Wrangler) Also, where are these low priced TRXs at???

Seems nowadays it’s hard to even find a 5.7 Grand Cherokee. In ‘13 the dealer had both the 3.6 and 5.7 lined up for a test drive. Did the 5.7 first and had no interest in even trying the V6 after that. I think a 5.7 in a Wrangler would have been just perfect (but not for me @ 6’7” and 280lbs I wouldn’t know how to fold me into the driver seat). Currently drive a RAM… would have loved the 392 option without having to go straight to TRX. That said, considering the money I’ve thrown at it so far and I’m not even done, I could and should have had a TRX (got my ‘19 Laramie dec ‘18).

Yes I would spend 97,000 on a Rubicon 392, I’m jeep guy and I think it’s the perfect Jeep and within about a week I’m just deciding on which color to get I’m ordering one,, thanks for the video buddy👍

Like the 392 but would rather see a 5.7 version for the cost alone. Same exact vehicle only with the 5.7. And with the cost of gas 5.7 the 3.6 just doesn't get out of it's own way.

The base cost of vehicles like the challenger or charger on 5.7 vs 6.4 is only a couple thousand. It's just harder to find the 6.4 version without a ton of extras nowadays because there just aren't a lot of vehicle being made.

I don't own any jeep product or have the wants for one but I think they would have been better off if they stuffed a 5.7 in it due to gas prices fuel mileage and insurance purposes I agree they needed a v8 but at almost 100k I could justify one if I was to buy at a 100k it would be a trx just makes more sense to me I don't rock crawl and the use of a pick up I do have. Awesome content RACER-X and as always be safe 👍

Those are not 33” tires (you said wheels but you meant tires)….this has the XR package which has 17x8 beadlock capable wheels with 315/70 tires (about a 35” tire) vs the 285/70 tires (about a 33” tire)

Why is everyone saying it should have a 5.7? That engine is ridiculously underpowered for its size by today’s standards and the gas mileage isn’t that far off from the 392. It makes complete sense for Stellantis to use the 392 as the last hurrah for 8 cylinder Wranglers. What doesn’t make sense is how expensive this thing is.

So many things you missed. For instance, when talking about the exhaust sound, you neglected the exhaust switch meant to change the flow and get better performance; and what you mentioned, the sound with an upgraded exhaust. The factory engineers already thought of that, and installed a switch for it. Your review is lacking.

Would be my dream vehicle if it was available in a Manual Transmission, and no the crappy flappy paddle shifters don't count. Driving a performance vehicle with an automatic is like driving with a condom on. That's fine if that's what your use to, but I drive with all the feel I can get, the way driving was intended!
