Best comparison video I’ve seen yet and none of that filler talk we already know about. Great job.

That was great! Fair and balanced review and I can’t wait till my buddy gets his Bronco so we can do the same… although based on this, it appears it’ll be driver vs driver 😂

Thank you Dakota!! Toward the end of your video the stock lift vs 2" lifted 2 door Wrangler was eye opening. With the 2" lift the body roll seems less and rig looks more stable. Really good comparison. And no big deal not able to "stick" the obstacles first few tries vs last time you did. Terrain changes all the time from use, weather, etc.

Like the looks of that 2 door Bronco vs the 4 door. Bronco performed well and looks like a capable rig. Very happy with my Rubicon but love to see some legitimate competition. Good or all of us.

Great true to reality comparison. Both very capable vehicles. I am a long time Jeep owner (owned a CJ since 1990...). But I am really enjoying my new Badlands for the onroad behavior. You can't go wrong with either vehicle and having them compete will just improve the product for us end users :)

At 7:40 the Bronco took a line more to the right. That avoided the front passenger tire from going down into the hole a few inches to the left. You can clearly see that hole at 8:15 on the Wrangler approach, and the Wrangler passenger tire going into it.

Great video... can't wait to see more Wrangler vs Bronco with upgrades

Don't be harsh on yourself, my wife is a Bronco gal I'm a Wrangler guy, you did perfect it was probably just the 20 psi instead of your usual 15 psi. Excellent comparison! As a Wrangler guy since I'm a 5 year old to now being 31 in March, I'll be happy to see Broncos hit the trails!

This is an excellent comparison between the two. Really helped me decide. Looking at base model manuals now

Tell Ferd to replace the sway-bar disconnect with a unit that, upon entering that mode, mechanically drives the opposite wheel down in proportion to the compression of one front wheel like a solid axle does. All it takes is some sensors and software for the best traction all day.. Then, go full independent suspension for a comfy ride and precise on-road handling, and you still have "solid axle" like off-road performance when you want it in the boonies at the push of a button. All it takes is money, I suppose. And smart engineering. Great honest comparison, thank you.

I honestly think both of em are very capable vehicles and I honestly like both. Good to see someone doing a comparison and not just bashing one over the other.

Great video.. Just started watching and so far I’m enjoying them all.

Great video been on the fence for a while. Love both of them.👍👍👍👍

Both amazing vehicles. I did find it incredibly interesting how the jeep performed differently with the two inch lift vs without. Looked like it far more approach bounce compared to without the lift.

Bronco is really amazing for the price

Air down those tires more, 20 is pretty damn high for what you were doing

Best comparison video in the web, thanks

That problem with lifting a small two door makes the center of gravity lighter, so there not enough weight on the tires to get traction, I have been 4x4 for 40 years and I go low and slow

Fantastic comparison! No extra blah blah talking, no stupid loud filler music. Just straight forward comparo. I do wonder why the Jeep seemed to have less flex with the lift. I do think 15 psi would've helped both a lot. It clearly showed how a 5 psi drop helped the Jeep. Thanks man!

You should do a video of what will fit in the back of the Bronco as you did with the Jeep. I really want a 2dr but I'm worried I won't be able to sleep in the back (with a ledge built up to make it flush with the seats). Keep up the good work Brother.

Thanks for the great review.

You are a brave man. I would not have the courage to put those 2 new beauties through that torturous terrain.

Two beautiful rides. Great video

Cool video. Thanks! Question.. Getting my badlands soon hopefully. So when trailing or crawling you only engage the lockers when you need them? I honestly thought u were supposed to have them all locked all the time. Sorry, first timer here.

Hell yeah bro! Great video!!

Solid axle’s… nuff said…

Great review!

Ok .. now I see the RUBICON decal! So yes on the wranglers lockers!

Good comparison between the two vehicles. I’ve seen a few four door Broncos locally, they’re really large vehicles… It’s not to surprising that the Broncos a fairly capable vehicle considering all of the other vehicles Ford had to imitate from.

Finally someone did a Jeep vs xxx with the same tires. Everyone usually wants to compare a base model Jeep with stock tires and compare it to a top of the line other vehicle with off-road tires. At that point it's just a tire comparison. Great job

Man. The Bronco is just fantastic….and So is the Wrangler! You sure are lucky to own both these iconic vehicles. The locking diffs and the sway bar disconnect are amazing features….

Great video. Been wanting a 2 door bronco for awhile. Going to wait a few years for when the kids are older but gives me time to pick the right one haha

Plus you can drag the rear tire in the Bronco for turning

Love your videos. I’ve always been curious, what do you do for a living? You have so many cool toys.

Couldn't ask for a better comparison. Pretty impressed with the Bronco just not sure I'm fond of the engine yet as far as power and longevity. Thanks for putting together a great video.

Love seeing the comparisons. Thank you for doing that. What do you think so far? Which do you like better on road and off road?

best actual off-road comparison

Less talk more work by 4x4 enjoyable video, I love wrangler ☺️👌

Awesome video! On trails like these, is there any reason to keep the diffs open? Or would it be better to just keep them locked the entire ride?

Nice video comparison-thumbs up. Seen one for the first time and spoke to the guy that owned it, there seems to be a noise from the roof and it's huge, yet competition is good too much of a Jeep guy to get one. But it does look good inside. Can't wait to see one on the trail.

Hidden falls is a fun park to test them out at. I’d like to see them on some harder trails out there.

Bronco for the win! And I’m not a Ford fan. I think the lift negatively affected the Jeep

Nice jeep👍

Both vehicles are awesome!

So which is the better vehicle off road, muddying, on sand, and rock climbing?

I would be interested to see the weight differences between the two perhaps top off both fuel tanks and take them to a cat scale at the local truck stop.

Fantastic video! This is the one everyone's been waiting for because no one else could do it right, Dakota, does the lifted wrangler perform any better than it did with just 35"s?

@12:37 I have seen this a time or two where stock Jeeps out perform Jeeps and other vehicles with bigger lifts and in this case, tires. Go back to 33's, that's what makes these stock Rubicons so appealing. You never have to mess with expensive geometry mods. They can do amazing things especially in the hands of a competent driver with common sense and good off-road instincts. I have a modest 2.5" lift with 32" ko2's on my '05 TJ Rocky Mtn and it's an amazing TJ on and off road. The Fox Shox and Fox steering stabilizer have this TJ performing extremely well.

What trails did y’all hit? I plan on getting a badlands 2 dr and want to hit hidden falls with it.

Great video man!

Does the wrangler have lockers? And what size tires on the Bronco??

Wow, man! this video was awesome. A great demonstration of the capabilities of the Bronco and Wrangel. I am considering getting one or other, and so far Bronco is winning.

"Channeling my inner jermy clarkson" lmao 🤣 i love this part

Those two door vehicles Bronco or Wrangler simply amaze with where they can go.

Surprised with the BRONCO👍 I have the 2-Door JK AND it DEF looks like it’s going to be some good competition! Owning Both would be ideal. The BRONCO Badlands in 4-Door and the JEEP 2-Door💪🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻👍

Hate to say it, but these comparisons aren’t fair. You should put the same tires on both vehicles, help decide what role rubber plays in it.

Excellent video. SUBSCRIBED

the tiers on the lifted 2 door JLR were not deflated enough, you can easily notice the tires on the no lift jl embrace the rocks versus the bouncing lifted JL

Awesome comparison!!!

Killing it with this content. Deserves way more subs.

Nice video and great cars.I can't even afford a 10 year old Corolla and you got two of the best cars.

What depth of water can the Bronco go through without getting water in the diffs?

Great video. When the bronco was announced I was excited and wanted one. Then the long wait kinda cooled my desire and I ended up buying a sxs and a duramax to pull it(plus it’s just an awesome truck LOL) and I’m glad I went that way. The sxs handles everything these two do and more with so much ease and is so much more comfortable doing it. Also I have probably $10k left at least from what the bronco cost. Definitely one of the best comparison videos I’ve seen.

My wife wants the same Bronco, I have a 2013 2 Door JK Sport S on Ko2’s. It would be fun off-roading a Jeep and seeing some Broncos around 😎 ✌️👌

Awesome vid! Is your Bronco a Bandlands Sasquatch or just the normal Badlands? How do you find it on-road?

Cool video. I subscribed.

Was watching the end part when you where struggling with the lift to get over the one spot. It looks like you came in more at an angel the first time without lift so both your back tires didn't hit at the same time on the rock edge and that allowed you to just pop right over. Other wise some times we just have those days.

Perfect video

Nice Bronco! Love the 2 doors 👍 I’m thinking the Bronco has better tires?

8:55 I'd call it "Arty the articulation rock".

I have a question about which lift did you put on Rubicon. I run a 2 inch Jeep lift on my 2011 Rubicon and BFG KM3. That combination works fantastic...

Is this fair? Cause the wrangler isn’t 100% stock. Either way great video

With everything there is pro's and con's and I think the reason that the stock suspension did better that your lifted suspension is that when you lifted suspension that you made it stiffer and you weren't getting as pliable of a ride. I could be wrong but it is only thing i could think of as to why your stock vehicle was taking obstacles easier.

Nice job, great to see an owner produced side by side comparison. I've been a Jeep guy for 15 years both west coast and east coast. Some comments and questions Jeep: 1) it sounds like the Jeep JL drivetrain still has that well known mechanical slapping when in low range under load, between the transfer case and drive shafts. 2) I also think the decreased climbing performance your now seeing is due to the lift, you have a higher center of gravity now, and different spring rate. Bronco 1) I'm impressed with how well balanced and controlled the drivetrain is, very solid. 2) The articulation is better than many thought, I'm impressed, but I think there is room to improve. Of the two, which one gave you a better sense of footing, roll, and steering/traction in the more challenging parts of the trail? Thanks for doing this series, looking forward to seeing more! 🙂

So 35's fit on the stock rubicon rims? We have a 2021 with the 33's. If the 35's fit I may get rims for my truck and swap the 33's onto that, put 35's on the rubicon. We took it off road with the local jeep club last week. It did great except for a few spot where it got hung up a bit due to ground clearance but was able to get over with a good spot and a little skidding on the rock guards.

I have a gladiator, I’m thinking 2 door bronco to go with it. Used to have 2 door wranglers but needed a truck

What interior package do you have? Is it 334A, I’m trying to figure out if 333A is the only way to get the 360 camera because Ford has 334A listed as what seems to be an audio package so I’m wondering if you loose what 333A has listed online, thanks! Beautiful beast.

This guy has awesome cars

Why did you add a rock for the mini ledge rather than engage your locker🥲? Articulation is fine with the lockers engaged you can spend all day locked in the rocks.

Gotta love that 2dr Bronco!

Do u know how to air down tires??? Doesn’t look like it how disappointing

10:25 rear Jeep tire not firmly on the ground. Only driver side lightly touching.

I would get some rear shock guards if you will be going on rocks like that

Would you recommend those Wrangler Territory tires?? I’m very interested in them for my Tacoma

The rear wasn’t moving the same way after the lift as it did before.

Great video!

But it doesn't have all four tires firmly on the ground... It's diving on the sidewall of the front passenger tire ... Solid axle is not better... It just usually has more suspension travel simply because the fulcrum is on the other side of the car instead of in the middle of the car... That's pretty much where it ends... One of the reasons that independent suspension was built was to keep both tires flat on the ground. That's the point.

Amature......stock tj stock tires, (swaybar discoed) No damage. Gold bar rim. Poison spider. Flat iron mesa. 7 mile rim. Wipeout hill. Metal masher. Gemini bridge before it was closed. Ect..... Your "stuck" jeep was not on the same line. Damn near a whole tire width off. If you could not tell that the front tire and back tire were trying to climb an edge at the same time as the reason It was struggling you really need to learn how to off road. However.....(sadly) this was one of the best and fairest matched comparison videos I have seen. Keep it up.

Awesome video. This video shows I made the right choice with the Bronco, thanks for sharing.

Se nota mejor desempeño de traccion en llantas y en forma general en el jeep

Great trail comparison! Thanks for the review.

Seems like the suspension of Jeep needs to be adjusted. Fast rebound and compression will cause too much up-down swing while trying to climb big step rocks, the rebound will make the car jump backward once you hit the rock but have not fully climbed on it. Sorry about my terrible English, I hope you can understand. Cheers.

If you had to pick just one, which one would you keep and why ?

Excellent. Bronco comes in as the (IFS) underdog and hangs with the king. One subtle difference, 20 PSI tire pressure on a lighter vehicle will give a smaller contact patch than 20 PSI on a heavier vehicle. Enough to make a difference? Perhaps.

Great video, very informative and a truly off-road test. The joke part at 8:56 was gold 🤣

i love this video

obstable at 12:50 looks like you came from further left and already had the left turn in for the rear to step.

Wish Ford Australia brought the BRONCO IN OZ 🙂

Nice jeep, is that the 2 inch mopar lift it has?

13:07 you should’ve just bumped the ledge. Sitting there spinning isn’t going to do anything you got to hit it with a little bit of momentum.
