Toyota guy here, but bought a used 2021 Bronco Badlands Sasquatch 6 months ago. It’s been so fun and no issues. It’s a beast off-road and I’ve ran it through intense Utah off-roading. So impressed. My first Ford and I’m liking it so far.

Off Road that Bronco is a beast. Especially off the show room floor.

I was dead set on choosing the Bronco when I learned about the Land Cruiser. I still preferred the Bronco and took it for a test drive. The drivetrain is better than the LC but it is really, really loud on the freeway. It scared me away from getting one. I test drove the LC and recently bought the First Edition (at little bit below the MSRP). I chose it because I prefer the looks and want to travel cross country, as well as it being a daily driver. 90% of the time I will be on roads but I live in the Mojave and want to be able to go off road as well.

As the Bonco's advocate. . . The stock tires on the Sasquatch are pretty noisy. If you turn on your front lockers while using the trail turn assist, you will really be surprised by how it works to pull you around a tight corner. (did I mention is has a front locker?) It's under a grand for a full set of steel skids for the Bronco via aftermarket. It does suck that if you want ACC and the front camera, you have to opt for the high/lux package. I wish you could have tested a fully loaded Wildtrak with the HOSS 3.0 vs the Toyota. As always, killer video Ryan, great way to enjoy my cup of java on a Saturday morning.

We LOVE our Base Sasquatch 2.7 twin turbo Bronco. Absolute blast to drive and wheel.

I saw another demo where the LC did all of that with factory tires. It was going against an older LC with off road tires. The new LC with factory tires outdid the older LC. Awesome 2024 LC.

[uncalm]

This was a fun one. Cool to see two vehicles that are very similar in capability. It's helpful to better understand the subtle ways they're actually different.

[JCOTV]

Wow, that slow drifting feature from the bronco is awesome

[ArkiDeos]

Base trim with Sasquatch package for the Bronco for me. I like more the looks of it vs. the LC. Ground clearance is important especially when you're in river crossing which you did not mentioned wading depth capability in both vehicles. And trail turn assist is a must when you are in the field plus front locker. Just put a proper rock slider and skid plate and you're good to go. BTW nice comparo video, just add river crossing on your future videos. cheer up..

I never though I would say this but the 2.7L TT V6 in the Ford Bronco is now (after the initial QC fiasco) a much better engine option than the new Toyota engines that are available for their Truck platforms, V6TT (very complicated engine) and the inline 4 hybrid system.

[sunchaser]

Bronco is just about as good as it gets for off road. 35s, front and rear lockers, sway bar for badlands, good ground clearance.

Otherwise LC overall more well rounded.

[AtzenMiro]

The reason why Land Cruiser did the part in 40:00 so easy is because A-Trac is allways on in the background in the new Land Cruiser.

[mattdagger]

black diamond Sasquatch package is the best bang for the buck in my opinion and that's why I ordered a 2024 in that spec haha. love it!

[azores]

If I understand correctly, the decibel scale is logarithmic, so there's a greater difference between the Yugo and the Bronco than you might be led to believe by looking at the numbers.

Doing some great comparisons Ryan, thank you!

As a toyota tech and a bronco owner i hard dissagree on the land cruiser being a nicer place to live. My manual bronco has the washout interior and its so much nicer than any of toyotas current interiors.

[ericcarlson]

All the chimes going off in the Land Cruiser would drive me nuts when enjoying a day in the woods.

[jamesmason]

Great video Ryan, the lobster seems to be very capable. Both seem to be very fun to take offroad.
