Here is Consumer Reports member survey of long term Jeep Wrangler Reliability, overall, not stellar, by any measure.

CR Jeep Wrangler.jpg
5 issues in the last 5 years? I honestly don’t care as I don’t own a Jeep now do i own stock so their reliability really isn’t any of my concern, I was just posting what I saw.

But for the sake of argument there seems to have been no serious engine, transmission or electrical issues in the last 5-6 years which is probably the most important parts. I have zero idea what body integrity means though? I’d imagine most cars would be about the same, average to good across the board.

Im a current Jeep Gladiator owner and plan on owning/running both. Because I like both and I’m not a 16yr old fanboy. ?‍♂

Again, do you expect Jeep to do a write-up glorifying the Bronco?

Where is Ford’s pro-wrangler pamphlet? I’ll wait ...

You sound like a fan boy to me. ??

Funnily enough, I was actually getting ready to dive into the wrangler rubicon and my friend told me that the bronco was being announced soon... not long after I reserved one.

How many times does this have to be brought up ************OFF IDLE TORQUE*************

6.4 > 5.0 > Any Ecoboost. So no, unless you want an F250, Ford does not have anything comparable. Maybe the hybrid, but I've been directly involved in reliability/maintainability analysis in complex military systems, so I don't have much to say to those continually in LALA land thinking a 6.4 OHV V-8 (basically loafing @ 450 HP these days) is not way more reliable than a small engine TT, dual injection, OHC, batteries, and electric motor built in trans setup.
Wow, there's a lot going on here.... First, comparing horsepower numbers while talking off idle torque is a square peg in a round hole. B) If you are in low range with an auto, or in crawl gear with a stick, you're not at idle when the vehicle starts moving. At 2,000 rpm, the small turbo's of the Ecoboost have spooled to 80,000 rpm and both motors are starting to match and shortly surpass V8 torque numbers. Last, The 2.7 is easily tuned to between 500 and 700 hp and TQ with a turbo upgrade, exhaust, and tune .

Maybe Jeep just needs to work on a turbo option for their 6. Or an affordable mopar turbo aftermarket option. This is probably the biggest check mark for the bronco. The engine options are solid.

Give it time to do what? grow a front axle?
LOL, give it time and I believe Ford will make the Bronco into a beast that will surpass Jeep in off-roading capabilities.

The only way for that to happen is if the make a solid axle rig. They may do it, and if they do, it could beat the Wrangler.

Wow! All that time and effort to point out all the advantages the Wrongler has over the Bronco and yet there's no mention of the #1 feature that comes standard on every Wrongler sooner or later: DEATH WOBBLE!
Don't forget, pre-dented door panels.

Throw in some poor grammar and you can see how quickly they typed this up... They are shitting their pants right now...
Ford Bronco Is FCA getting nervous? Publishes Bronco vs Jeep Wrangler Info Sheet Guide CR Jeep Wrangler


"Customers who want even more...... tires ON the Rubicon from Mopar." <--- fixed it for ya dumbasses!!

BTW, my wife's Jeep top leaks like a sieve... any chance you guys can spend a little less on propaganda and a little more on fixing a WELL KNOWN ISSUE with your prized Jeeps... thanks
Agree.....my buddy is the biggest Jeep guy around and he came over last night at my request to help me decide between a two or four door Bronco. He was a great sport about it and actually loved the Bronco. Anyways, he went on complaining that he wakes up every morning after a hard rain to find his carpet soaked inside his three year old Wrangler.
