I wonder if it was the underpowered 2.3t (If you can even call it that) that didn't produce the wheelspin like the 2.7tt?Man that manual just crawled right up. Can you confirm if that was using the crawl gear?

Better articulation on the non-squatch apparently. Also might be trying to do apples to apples as best they can.So why aren't they putting a Sasquatch through all of this??
Yeah I agree, although "Most capable Wrangler (33's) available vs. Most capable Bronco (35's) available" to me would be apples to apples But apparently a more lifted Bronco with 35's hurts you on the articulation. Still would like to see a Sasquatch doing this.Better articulation on the non-squatch apparently. Also might be trying to do apples to apples as best they can.
I don’t think it’s actually more lifted. I think it’s the same height just that the 33s have more room in the wheel well to travel.Yeah I agree, although "Most capable Wrangler (33's) available vs. Most capable Bronco (35's) available" to me would be apples to apples But apparently a more lifted Bronco with 35's hurts you on the articulation.

I’m agreeing with the apples to apples comparison one, not the non-sas gets better articulation. I don’t believe that.Better articulation on the non-squatch apparently. Also might be trying to do apples to apples as best they can.
Had nothing to do with power. The Jeep spins its wheels with a lot less power than the 2.7.I wonder if it was the underpowered 2.3t (If you can even call it that) that didn't produce the wheelspin like the 2.7tt?

I have to say I agree based on the high rev and crawling speed towards the end of the video when he flattens out and commits to the next smaller obstacle.From the sound of the motor, seems like it was using crawl gear.
Looks like it makes a difference. Walked right up that.
Aren’t those 35s?My JKU rubicon in the same spot a few years back. 6 speed manual.
It’s a difficult hill so....it's almost like they picked these particular hills...
Nothing negative, just wondering if Ford went out to sections of trails just like this and made it a benchmark.It’s a difficult hill so....
Great video! Offroad capability comparisons are very tough. If you're looking at sports cars on a racetrack, it's very easy to look at lap times side by side and figure out which one is faster. But offroad, conditions can change from vehicle to vehicle - the lead truck could throw sand or mud on the rock it just passed and make it harder for the follower. There is no perfect, clearly defined, optimal racing line - just the line you try and pick through the obstacles. And tires make a big difference, too. So it's very hard to look at side by side comparisons of the same obstacle and decide which truck is more capable. I'm sure tens of thousands of Jeeps have made it up that rock over the years. This video doesn't prove that a Jeep can't or couldn't or even that the average Jeep would have a hard time, just that the Bronco can do it.My JKU rubicon in the same spot a few years back. 6 speed manual.
