Do it! It’ll help someone out here!
Yes, please! Buy it!!

If buying the Jeep cancels a Bronco order and we all move up a notch... Then we won't talk you out of it.

Current vehicle is a 20 Raptor and I pushed my reservation to MY22 for the Bronco. Then I decided I might as well wait for the Warthog version, but I’m thinking that won’t be until MY23. I have an issue with patience so now I’m considering the Rubicon 392. I’ve owned many Jeeps (5 altogether (3 Wranglers)) so I’m familiar with their product. Anyone have any advice?
The thread title should tell your answer. If you need someone to talk you out of it, then seems there is not total certainty you want just another Jeep over the bronco

I don't understand why anyone who could actually afford a 392 Wrangler (out the door cost + fuel costs) would actually be considering a Bronco. I'd pick the 392 Wrangler any day of the week over any trim of Bronco including the future Warthog. I don't think anyone's opinion actually matters though on this forum to change your mind if considering spending 75K+ for the 392 Wrangler.

You've had enough Jeeps (especially Wranglers), so I say no and wait for the Bronco.

I would likely opt for the TRX over the 392 for around the same money... but that's just me.

Yeah for that money.
I’d consider these based on my needs and wants and unsolicited opinions.

-Raptor
-V8 Defender, heck even the V6
-Super duty Tremor
-TRX? Sure… eh maybe.

Edit: but I’ve never wanted a wrangler , so there’s my bias.

fuel costs are not really that big a deal compared to the Bronco, it is rated at 18 MPG highway, just like SQ's and BL's. A reasonable V8 in a Bronco could very well do better on fuel (for all you naysayers on a V8 Bronco).

They’re probably not going to do the warthogs that way. It’s more than likely going to be a dealer allocation game like the shelbys.

Buy a V8 Defender so I can vicariously live through you.

Definitely went with the XR - no brainer!
Color? She had to have snazzberry. Thankfully, when I placed the order tuscadero pink wasn’t out yet. I had my VIN the next day.
