The powers intoxicating, the steering is pretty bad, the materials they chose for the interior are perfect, and the seats suck.
I've driven my brothers extensively. Spot on assessment! Huge smile and l laugh to myself when you open the exhaust and give it the beans.

Unfortunately it is silly in general and overpriced. Not to mention despite the power you can't tow anything with it. He took delivery last July and it was almost $80K at MSRP and not even close to as well appointed as a Bronco with the high pkg and Sasquatch (the leather seats are nice but still no where near as comfortable as the Broncos and the dash display is so small compared to the 12" in a Bronco). He added new 35" tires and proper gearing so that added another almost $5k. Obviously his was not a Recon or whatever they call it addition. He shelled out an additional $30k for a Jeep that sounds awesome and takes off like a Hyena with it's a$$ on fire but is less capable on the road and only matches a Bronco off road. Of course his came in 3 months compared to my 16 months so there is that.

In all honesty it is an overpriced gimmick. That said, you put that motor in a Bronco and I'm the first in line to buy it!

4xE is pretty heavy with the battery’s I’m sure that effect the ride. The Jeeps ride is better than the broncos imo.
Off-road, I’ll agree. On road……😳🙄😂🤣

Trying not to be a hater but why are we reviewing a 80K Fiat/Chrysler product on a Ford Bronco enthusiast Website? Has anyone bought a new Honda or Kia minivan they want to post on here too?
Yes I am kind of a dick FYI but honestly WTF

Did you happen to notice what section of the forum you are posting in? 😉 😁

hint ... it is titled "Bronco vs the competition"

Sweet Badlands by the way @WLDBST !

Check your FE tire pressure also. Mine were over filled, as were the 35's when I had them mounted up. I think those were at 48psi ... thought I'd need a kidney transplant on the way home!
Dropped to 35, then today to 32 and it rides MUCH MUCH better.
Either set of tires just soaked up the expansion joints and tar strips when they were set at the proper psi. The 35's excel at soaking up speed bumps... LOL!

OK fair enough but its funny I think Daddy Warbucks got himself a FE and then his wife goes for the top of the line JEEP instead. Jus sayin..

Holy moly 48psi it probably felt like a model T. When I picked the bronco up they actually did a decent PDI and had them set to 39. Right now with the cold they’re sitting at 35 psi. I feel more driveline vibrations in the bronco and you can feel more road feedback in it. When it’s in 4A you can feel even more driveline vibrations. I’m not sure if it’s normal or not. At the end of the day If we’re going on a road trip the bronco will be what we go in.

"Except for the MPG". I wonder how it compares to the Bronco? The Broncos from what I have ready get only 16-17 (2.7). Would the 392 get the same only it has that much more power? And also that the Jeep is perhaps lighter?

Love the color A,plus. It’s just not a bronco. Got two jeeps in the garage that give me lots of pleasure. Built them to climb rocks on class 5,6,7, trails. I get them real dirty , break them and repair them in my shop. But I’m a diehard Bronco fan . Love not hate but the bronco is the better looking of the couple. Had a couple of bronco’s when I was young!!! Didn’t no what I had. But they kicked ass

The wrangler weighs 6100lbs the Bronco 4 door squatched weighs 5860. On the way home the wrangler got 15mpg the bronco on the same trip got 20-21mpg.

My question is where are you all getting all that money???

OP has a brand new Bronco, a brand new 392, and is talking about getting a Bronco Raptor.

One guy that posted has a 392, a Bronco on order, and a Mercedes in the garage.

Another guy that posted has like 47 Jeeps, a Bronco somewhere, looks like a Raptor in one of the pics, a GT500 listed in his "Vehicles", and who knows what else.


Like WTF. We had to trade in my wife's nice car for my Bronco and buy her something cheap. One $950 a month payment is all we can afford....

392 sounds amazing. One pulled up to me at a light and was so surprised to hear that sound coming from a Wrangler. For $80k though, I would have a Shelby, M, GTR, Z06, preferably with a manual before any 4x4. Would be a fun 2nd vehicle though

I agree 100%, ford really did a great job with the design.
