Jeep Rubicon 392?

Has anyone test drive the new Jeep Rubicon 392? I'm debating to check it out and maybe look into getting a 2022 model if I sell my 2018 zcp F83.


I'm not looking for mpg but smiles per gallon with the v8 engine naturally aspirated growl with bonus awd

Haven’t personally driven the 392 Wrangler yet but I have a Grand Cherokee SRT with the 392 engine and I absolutely love it.

I’d go test drive one. I know Wranglers can feel a bit squirrelly at high speeds if you go for the 35” tires option. I’m sure this one has beefed up suspension and that won’t be an issue.

Definitely something I’d be interested in owning in the future. I absolutely love how FCA is putting these big V8s in these things while everyone else is going the opposite direction

I love the idea of it! It sounds like a lot of fun! However, if it handles or drives anywhere close to my wife's old Wrangler, then I'd be very scared to have all that extra power, especially at high speeds!

I have one. It is very stable for what it is and handles pretty well. Sounds great and is surprisingly quick. Just had it out today with the power retractable soft top and windows open. It is a lot of fun.

Just to add to the above, if you are able to order one to get a decent discount through a volume dealer ($7-8k off of MSRP), you will likely be able to drive one of these for free for a few years. The Hemi V8s are not long for this world, and once they are discontinued, special models like this one are going to be very sought after.

In the future, I hope to own it. It appears that the price is rising.
