How do you make the Jeep Wrangler - a vehicle that can take off its roof, fold down its windshield, remove its doors, and overcome tremendous off-road obstacles - better? Jeep thinks the answer is simple: add a HEMI V8. Well, simple in theory at least.

In practice, wedging a 392 cu in V8 engine into a compartment made for 4 and 6-cylinder engines is no small matter. The accessory drive and alternator placement, exhaust manifolds, oil filter, oil pan, and cooling module all needed tweaking to accommodate the bigger motor. Furthermore, Fox aluminum monotube shocks were substituted for Tenneco units, giving the truck an extra inch of ground clearance. Finishing touches included a third generation Dana 44 front axle from the Gladiator Mojave, stiffened chassis components, and a performance exhaust to unleash HEMI music on innocent bystanders.

The 2021 Rubicon 392 stands as the most expensive, powerful, and well-equipped Wrangler ever built and factory delivered. But is that enough to justify its $75K starting price? Competitors like the Ford Bronco, Lexus GX, and even Land Rover Defender 110 SE cost significantly less and offer components of the Wrangler 392's package. To find out, Miles takes the 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 through a series of on and off-road tests in this in-depth review.

Options Equipped:
- Snazberry Pearl Coat ($245)
- Trailer Tow Package ($350)
- Trail Rail System ($195)
- All-Weather Floor Mat ($165)
- Sky One-Touch Power Top ($2,000)
- Integrated Off-Road Camera ($595)

[JustSmile]

Big thanks to ford, because they are the reason forcing jeep for a v8 wrangler finally!

[HectorPerez]

Love your in-depth reviews and especially the way you break things down. Excellent!

[BestJeepGuideOfficial]

Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 is known for being the king of off-road vehicles 🔥🔥🔥 This is a Perfect American pickup 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲 Thanks, great content👍👍👍

[andymckane]

Fabulous review. Best one I've seen yet on the Wrangler 392 Rubicon. Thank you very much!

[matadorprime]

Great video! Thanks for doing these in-depth walk-arounds. Love this Jeep! At 12:22, that T50 is the name/type of tool you need to remove the bolts.

[chrisrosenbaum]

Great review - very detailed. Thank you! I ordered a 392 last week and can’t wait for it to be delivered.

[germancarsarebetter]

Your videos are very entertaining, and your sarcastic comedy is quite good and much appreciated. Keep up the great work. SUBD

[blakethomas]

Wow that's expensive! You do such a great job in explaining each vehicle. I learn so much from your channel. Each day the channel grows closer to 1million! Thanks for your hard work! I love me some Miles!

What a lovely wild horse 392 i love it

[polarisflyer]

@ 12:22, you mention the T-50 on the door hinge as being an indicator of the required torque. That's not the case. The T-50 indicates the size of the Torx bit that you need to remove the bolt in order to lift the doors out of the hinge.

22:09 key FOB in the shape of a jerry gas can, how cool is that?!?

[viperrt]

Great review! extremely thorough and entertaining. I ordered a 392 in Snaz. Fantastic color on these Jeeps. And you nailed it about the 35" tires.

[strohdog]

I would love it if they did a 392 Gladiator.

[Theonestrongbusleader]

Great Review As Always Bro, Also I Totally In Love With This Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4×4. I Totally Love The Sound Of The V8 & The Color.

[sleepycalico]

Thanks for showing the cargo space. I couldn't see that anywhere else.

[tomcat]

Just picked my 392 up yesterday. 87k before tax. Luv it.

[nitroxide]

First the diesel, then JT… then 392 JL. Jeep really caters to fans.

[guarnibl]

Great video. Cargo space is different than the regular wrangler though, as you lose part of the little pocket area below the cargo mat which I assume is due to the exhaust.
