You can get the Willys (pronounced "willis, " after Willys Overland, the company that designed the first Jeeps) with an optional rear locker, while Rubicon comes standard with front and rear differential lockers and swaybar disconnect. You can also get any Wrangler with any top (hard top, soft top, etc). Rubicon also has its fender flares raised by 2" to accommodate bigger meats if you want that.

Awesome job on this comparison. Very helpful! Excellent content.

This guy has no idea about the Rubicon. Never mentioned the chassis or suspension and that is what sets the Rubicon apart. Same the Mojave chassis and suspension sets it apart.

Great video, that why I got the Willys

[rushrocks]

I bought the 2024 Willy’s 4xe yes I could have bought whatever I wanted lol so I bought the Willy because I love it although I only have a rear locker but in the other 5 jeeps I’ve owned with both front & rear locker’s that I really didn’t need that much why because it’s a jeep lol

2024 Willys comes with rear lockers now

[mryanmoore]

The Willys hits the sweet spot as far as features/price. BTW it's pronounced Willis, as in "what you talking about, Willis?"

Just bought the Willy's same color love it

I got that problem now deciding which one. I’m thinking about buying a 2021 green rubicon pre certified, however I’m looking at a 2025 green Willy. I can buy the 2021 for 32, 900 unfortunately the will is $47, 000 don’t know if I would qualify even if I put $7, 000 down payment, I did qualify with the used rubicon putting $5, 000 down, I was surprised that I was approved.

I do love the fact that the Willy is new, plus the black wheels. The Willy is a cross between a rubicon and a Sahara sport S. That’s my opinion. You got nice bang for your buck with a Willy. What I do like with my approved rubicon is that it has all the bells and whistles. Getting a $62, 000 jeep for half the price. Wishing it would have the black whilly wheels.

It has 49, 000 miles on it. That is what I don’t like. It makes me want to buy a new 2025 Willy and just the whole $7, 000 down payment on it.

Many people are looking at this jeep, the sales guy is holding the keys for me since I was approved. I have until today to make a decision.

23 model Willys. 24 id different. Good review.

[slavakuznetsov]

Many people buy Rubicons and use their lockers only once a year. I have 2023 Willys, my bud has Sport, and side by side I can confirm that Willys (despite all the heavy-duty claims they make) is essentially an appearance package. The aluminum wheels on my jeep actually inferior for off-roading. Although for 24 model year they added rear locker, so this is a big step up (I only have rear limited slip).

Thank you. Rub adds 1 inch ground clearance

2023 models, Rubicon is hard to beat if you can afford it - standard dana 44 axles front and rear, plus lockers and better gearing and high clearance fender flares. New 2024 models Willys also have the Dana 44 in the front, high clearance fender flares, and a rear locker. Gearing is still 3.45 so the 33" tall tires are a stretch but it'll hold 35s with no lift and then all you need is a regear, add in a front limited slip and you have 99% of the Rubicon capability at a pretty decent discount.

You forgot the main difference. The suspension!

[powerboatguy]

Those prices are coming down now, especially on the eco diesels.

4:35 The Willys is NOT as capable as the Rubicon in offroad. The front locker and swaybar disconnect is huge while off road.

[Libertatem_Vel_Mortem]

The fender flares sit 2" higher than the Willy's as well.

[EMTBLifer]

Rubicon is the best if you off-road like me.

[r_itchytrigger]

Pretty lame comparison. Red accents dont matter. Jeepers want to know about diffs, axle ratios, lockers, shocks, etc. I guess its sufficient review for moms who dont off road a Jeep. Just buy an SUV. More detail, less fluff next time

[barbaram]

You’re showing 2023 models versus 2024. Still agree that Willys is more bang for the bucks; especially in 2024 model
