Has The Jeep Wrangler Finally Met Its Match? I Compare Them to Find Out! | Bronco Week Ep. 4 

Great and fair review as always. Keep it up.

And Chevy brought the Blazer back as a soccer mom SUV.

You need to take to colorado, attention:if you going to try 4 doors bronco it should be a 4 doors Jeep as well.

Prices on Jeeps have been climbing over the years due to lack of competition. Hopefully the Bronco puts them in check.

One thing Tommy you need to mention about the sway bar disconnect, you can disconnect it under load and reconnect it while moving

Ford and jeep are going to have a legendary rivalry

Fun fact: any part on any car is "removable" just depends on how much work you're willing to do.

"Competition makes everybody better." #capitalism

I've been waiting for this since the Bronco was announced. Thanks for making this.

Tommy and Andre, you guys are killing it with all these Bronco videos. Thanks for all of the hard work!

I’m just glad someone is pushing Jeep. They are far too expensive for what you get and have rested on their laurels too long. This is good for the consumer no matter which you buy.

Please compare them in extremely rough terrain we haven’t seen. I know you guys have a few spots to do that.

Just bought a 2021 Wrangler diesel. I LOVE it! However, The Bronco does look amazing. So far, I really like what Ford did. My brother had a 1977 orange Bronco. Yeah, I think Ford did an awesome job so far.

The window having to come down to open is a huge disadvantage when in an ice storm, ask any challenger owner who has had one get iced up.

Frameless windows are HORRENDOUS in the winter, I should know... my Challenger has them.

Sasquatch is a 2500 dollar option on the badlands. It's only 5k on the base model once they let you get it with a manual. Other than that it's about 7k because until later this year it forces you into an automatic.

Christ, I appreciate all the information in a quick format but I felt my blood pressure raise just listening to how fast this guy talked. 10/10!

This man complaining about the plastic interior not being “nice” in the Bronco.. Well Ford made it for off-roading, not the pavement. If you want luxury you get the OuterBanks trim

I've always found cheaper feeling materials clean better just pointing that out lol get them dirty then clean tell me witch is easier too clean for a off roader it's probably better am I wrong ?

All that freshness of the Bronco and it still has those ancient Ford door chimes.

my girlfriend's 5.0 mustang has the little auto roll up window feature since they're frameless doors, and that car has been through it all and they still work. from 2006! ford seems to know how to make that pretty reliable.

Any other tall people out there excited about the Bronco not having that centre beam? Idk about you guys but that was the headrest for me whenever I'm unfortunately sitting in one.

The most important thing in any vehicle is reliability

The wrangler is better because it’s available

Ok, being a previous owner of2 Wranglers, I have never heard anyone say that the Jeep interior is of quality, let alone high quality! lol

That bronco just looks effortlessly good.

Tommy mentioned the Bronco tie downs on the hood look like gun sights. I wonder if Ford did that on purpose. They may line up with the front tires, giving you a better way to position this tires on the trail. Much like Jeep did the the JK.

Now compare base models (and show ALL standard features) and you'll see how much Jeeps been overcharging for years

I love seeing someone who is tall sit inside. Great video. Would love to see a side by side comparison with Jeep and Bronco loaded with a weekends worth of camping gear and taken out on the trail. How does each perform with all that weight? I had a Jeep but couldn’t trust it past warranty. We would always load it down with camping gear and when doing so there were quite a few times when the suspension bottomed out on serious obstacles. It was a blast and my attention is fully on the Bronco for getting back to that open air off road experience.

I’m not even gonna read the comments yet… I just wanna say that I’m glad Ford has brought back the bronco name plate!!! thank you Ford!!!

I was very worried about those windows on my 2012 Mustang, but after thousands of door opening rolldowns they are still going strong. I hope the Bronco has the same longevity. ~10 years is all you should ask for in a modern wire-driven window anyway.

Definitely taking the bronco

GREAT Job Tommy. You are very enthusiastic and thorough in your reviews. Dad must be proud of you.

At 9:53 is the video slowed down or is the guy in the background walking in slow motion? Completely confused right now

I have owned and loved Wranglers since 1996. I wouldn't trade my newish Jeep for a new Bronco but I'll almost certainly add a Bronco to the collection in a year or 2 when demand slows down.

My old Impreza had frameless windows, and I pushed more through the dirt than 90% of Broncos will ever see. Held up fine, I expect the two decade newer Bronco frameless windows to hold up just as well. Frameless windows are awesome.

Jeep press release: "If you'd ever consider driving a Ford Bronco, please, we don't want you in a Wrangler. Ever. Take your kids to the mall in something else."

Have you made a video of removing the hard top yet? Potential big advantage over the 140lb rear of a JKU/JLU and I’m curious how complex it is and how long it takes.

As a long time wrangler owner, I have a few observations that may help others like me cross shopping the Bronco: The fenders on the Jeep are so wide because the tires are pushed outwards from the body more. If you really do hard core off roading, this should matter to you. It keeps your body work away from obstacles when you're deep in the ruts, or on a side slant towards the ground. Wish they popped off like the Bronco though! That's an awesome feature. Lets be real about the IFS. It is better in every off road situation except for hard core flex heavy off roading. The problem is... this vehicle competes with the most hard core off roader on the market. It won't replace the wrangler in that regard, but the FJ Cruiser guys went hard with IFS back in the day, and the Taco and 4Runner guys do it now to a bit of a lesser extent. My Wranger's flat rear floor after folding the seats down is one of its unexpectedly best features. I think it's impossible to convey how truly useful this makes a vehicle like the wrangler. It's literally a gigantic box, and is ridiculously practical (4 door). One of the biggest misses on the Bronco in my opinion. One of the biggest misses on the Wrangler is the base price value. The wrangler base has: No power windows, no power locks, no LED headlights, no AC, no keyless entry, and a soft top. The Bronco has all of this and a hard top, and is only a couple of grand more (CAD). To get all of this on a wrangler, you'd have to spend TEN THOUSAND MORE (CAD). Now, I love the base model wrangler. Some people don't want all the options I just listed, and I get that... but the price should reflect that, and it clearly DOESN'T.

Thanks for the great head-to-head overview comparo! I can’t wait to see you guys get these two out on a trail and rocky terrain, it’s going to be epic!

2 door vs 4 door. Come on guys, let’s do an apples to apples comparison.

Finally a video that shows how the back seats fold down. Thanks for sharing!

BRONCO Always ❤️😎🤙

It's a great comparison, but I think the biggest comparison should be how these two fair against each other on some technical off-road trails. Will that be coming in an upcoming video?

That color scheme on the wrangler is awful. Dark green exterior tan roof black fender flares chrome wheels and red interior. Looks terrible

I saw a bronco in the wild today very nice looking rig

Enough of the banging on the dash. No one even touches the dash when using a vehicle. Will it last 50 years? Does it wipe off easily? Only relevant questions.

Keep in mind that the sasquatch package is much cheaper to add to the badlands as it already has most of the equipment. It's only 3k on the badlands.

How many Jeep drivers are actually folding the windshield down? I mean, it's a neat feature, but really, who is actually doing it???

First off I’m not a Jeep, or any other 4x4 off road vehicle owner… For a short time I thought I wanted a Bronco. Then Ford started the marketing games. I did my research, looked at the two vehicle’s features/specs etc. and when I do finally purchase a 4x4 off road vehicle it’ll be the Jeep. It looks more at home out exploring whereas the Bronco appears to be a city car that you can take off road. Yes Ford did there homework, “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”.

Jeep gonna have to up it's game against that twin turbo V6. Finally! The old 3.6L is so....adequate.

Tommy , what u mentioned on the hood of the bronco can also be used to run strings or cables to the roof for forging through brush and tree limbs , the string let's the limbs roll up over the cab/ windshield... Js

Thanks T and A for sweating through that heat to give us a great overview. Can not wait for you guys to get these 2 on your home trails!

He said he wasn't a fan of the bronco soft top when you lift it up to put baggage, yet it was done much faster than him trying to remove this tan soft top from the wrangler. Lol also, you're damaging the back windshield constantly folding and bending it.

The insiders at FCA have been looking to improve the Wrangler as soon as they found out the real numbers behind the new Ford Bronco a while back. Prepare for a new Wrangler in the coming years.

I would love to hear more about the visibility comparison between the two. The jeeps lower and narrower hood are probably going to make a much bigger difference in placement and confidence when offroading. But the ford definitely has a cooler looking interior and love the rubberized floor!

competitors in aerodynamic: Wrangler, Bronco and a cow

Very good comparison. But which one is a better mall crawler and grocery getter?

Nice review, location had too much road noise though :(

Prices are just crazy these days

What you all miss is that Ford's base engine offers great power and the optinal 2.7 one isn't that much more and is a true beast of a motor. The base jeep v6 is a boat anchor and the optional turbo 2.0 make's much less power than either Ford Engine. If the diesel costs the same as the Ford 2.7 v6 I'd say that's an advantage, but I bet it's quite expensive. Good video

I put $100 on the bronco in August last year for a reservation. Still hadnt heard from ford dealership so i bought a rubicon and the wife loves it

Imagine having both of them in your garage. One for Mommy and one for Daddy. Let the kids decide who they want to ride in for their game practice. Fun times.

Good luck with that first year Ford build. Read about the latest Explorer launch. Quality and other issues so bad they were sent from Chicago to Michigan to a repair facility.

Tommy did a line before he recorded this. Man he’s spazzing out

I am just now noticing the new bull bar is taller, revealing the Bronco name badge on grill. Looks great 👍

Ive been waiting for a bronco since i sold my 2-door Explorer

Re. the Bronco, you can use 2 different gas grades without damaging anything in the motor?

That wrangler was actually equipped with the rubber floor mats with drain holes

Did I hear you say the Sasquatch package is 7K ? If you did say, you are mistaken. It’s about 5K in the base model and as you get a better model the price drops to 2K because the better models has part of the Sasquatch equipment already in the suspension.

It they were both the 2 door versions, then they would be the most off road worthy.

Friend of mine has a Jeep 2 doors and he took out the rear seat and made a "tool box" from the back of the front seat to the back door at the same level of the wheelwells, all out of steel, totally flat, that opens upward. Kinda Ridgeline-like. He put a motorcycle elastic net on top. You can store stuff on top of it. It is brilliant ! So much more storage space.

To me Jeep looks better than Bronco from inside as well as from outside.

Another good informative, concise review. No slow parts. No fluff.

The Bronco reminds me of an older Land Rover…maybe I’m flashing back to the Top Gear Bolivia special.

Didn't realize how far those bronco mirrors stick out until it's next to a wrangler. Gonna be smacking some trees on the trails unless you fold them back.

Not all off-road is rock crawling!

Finally, the Jeep Wrangler is going to go through some major chances in the next few years. Got to love competition!!! Ford fan and previous-future Bronco owner here.

That Wrangler looks good, but at the same time dated. For me the Ford wins on the interior.

I was at a Jeep dealer a few Sundays ago and saw a 2 door Rubicon the same color, it was a manual. When you get close to it you realize what its meant to do , seriously HD looking, price was 53 grand

Let’s hope the new 4Runner will bring back some retro aspects from the 1st gen. That would make this battle even better.

Love the new Bronco . I have a jeep but I also ordered a new Bronco and I can’t wait for the off road after markets companies to get going on the Bronco. I believe this is also going to make jeep get better.

"everything you touch is pretty nice" then plays with the cheap plastic air vent haha Also I think its funny when people say random plastics in vehicles that normally are never touched don't feel quality. Umm when was the last time you stroked your dash on your car?

Thank you for the coverage guys, you're doing a great job as always. Couple of questions 1) what's the point in getting the sasquatch package on the badlands? The badlands already come with lockable front and rear diffs, disconnectable sway bar and 4.70 gears 2) Ford had mentioned a feature called one peddle driving while off-roading, can you explain how that works in general and also with the manual transmission. Thank you so much

That green and tan top combo is beautiful. Wish they offered a tan hardtop

The largest difference between the two is the steering, rack and pinion on the ford and reserculating ball on the jeep, for those who don't like the highway wander on the jeep.

Bronco starts at $28,500, but if you want locking front and rears with swaybar disconnect you have to get the badlands at $42,095 starting price. Also if you get the Sasquatch package it only comes with the automatic.

Seeing these in the wild is so weird over building the Bronco on the line

I feel just like the 4 runner and Tacoma it will be better than the Jeep in 90% of driving but the last 10% (aka difficult off-road) the Wrangler will shinned unmatched. Good to have more options in this market and thankfully not every SUV is a Crossover nowadays.

I've always loved jeeps but that bronco is much better looking

Do appreciate the honest side by side comparison. I didn't even want to know about the bronco because I'd just purchased a new rubicon. Seeing this I'm even happier with my jeep. None of them are perfect but the main issue is to enjoy your vehicle and be safe. 👍

Wow, I wanted to like the Bronco more. But, having one next to a Jeep I must say the Jeep still looks better in my opinion and seems to be more off road capable due to its solid axel suspension. Guess we'll have to see the off road comparisons.

With the door windows I’ve been replacing auto glass for 25 years. Not having a window frame makes for a hard install with a aftermarket glass. The Ford Mustang has the same install and I always recommend getting factory glass for that application. Which means you’re paying $150 plus for a replacement.

Can't wait to put my order in for a 2 door sasquatch with the 2.7L as soon as they're readily available here in Canada... nothing wrong with waiting out the initial issues of a new model either...

I'm really looking forward to future editions of these cars trading blows and making eachother better

i go for ford bronco💪💪💪

The base Jeep is $400 cheaper than base Bronco but the Jeep does not come standard with a/c, its a $1400 option. The base Bronco can be optioned with front/rear lockers and 35s, only top trim Jeep has them. I love the Jeep, but i got to say Ford did an outstanding job bringing the Bronco back. Plus that 2.7 eco is a beast. Another thing, every other Jeep video Tommy and Roman bitch about the seats, lack of support, lack of adjustment for tall people, how is the Bronco in comparison. Btw, stop whining about the plastic interior, every car has plastic interior.

That Bronco is hurting a lot of Jeep lovers feelings .

Finally! Some in person Bronco reviews. Loving all the Bronco content guys

The Jeep looks so good here. Just sayin’.
