Any reason for the 3:73 ratio vs having a 4:10 like my Rubicon now has?

Better fuel economy would be my guess.

Perhaps better calibration of the automatic transmission, as well. Particularly at freeway speeds.

I think based on Annual sales numbers every 2 door owner in the country has chimed in with their disappointment.

It makes me laugh... Sales results have consequences!

I also appreciate everyone telling us how “smart” they are not to be an early adopter. I sleep so much better knowing this.

I think it’s a great halo product for the wrangler - it’s not for everyone, but damn it’s cool! Could a few things be tweaked yea- but monster HP/Torque solve many things.

Easy now. Sensible post will not be tolerated here Pull

I didn't read all 10 pages, but this is some BS. What's the price on this going to be? Probably 60-70K or more, since a standard 4 door Rubicon or High Altitude are 40-50K. They'll only sell a handful of these at that price. Sure it's neat, but I've heard a lot more people say they want a 2 door Gladiator. Yet they made this and say there's not plan to make the 2 door truck. Stupid.
This is just a way to say "ours is bigger" in response to the Bronco. If they were really listening to what the consumers want, they'd be making the 2 door truck too, not just this crap. It's just like the Hellcat and Demon. Pointless, geared toward a very small market, with the main goal of bragging rights.

Not impressed. HEY JEEP, WE WANT THE J6 GLADIATOR!!!!!!!

Agreed.

The way sales are going: the day FCA decides to discontinue the 2-door is approaching, but that would be a big mistake.

The 2-door Wrangler is such an iconic vehicle...as Jeep loves to remind us by plastering it everywhere!

You can get a new Vette for 60k so this has to come in around that...fingers crossed!

Agreed. Still, I think the day FCA decides to discontinue the 2-door is approaching but it would be a mistake.

The 2-door Wrangler is such an iconic vehicle...as Jeep loves to remind us by plastering a little outline everywhere!

I completely agree. Just because they don't sell a billion of them, they talk about dumping it. Then they have options that are only available in 4 doors, and talk about how 2 door sales are down. Well, yeah they are because you didn't give us the option of a 2 door. Can't buy a 2 door Sahara, or High Altitude. Moab wasn't available in 2 doors. Guess what FCA people aren't buying as many 2 doors because you don't offer as many 2 doors. It's a self fulfilling prophecy.

Save the 2 door.

Lets do the math!

2.0L or 3.6L has 300 ft/lbs to be generous. So * 4.1 = 1230 in 1:1 transmission gear.

6.4L is 470 * 2.75 = 1292.5 in 1:1 transmission gear.

It is likely they do not offer the 4.1 as it's not needed.

Yes, but the 3.0 gets the 4:1

442 * 4 = 1,812 in 1:1

a big question for me is if this will be a model that will continue to be offered for a number of years (just based on where I am in my buying cycle)?

Also, I understand there is a model refresh due for MY22 - where 35s will be available from the factory (hopefully on this model too).

I have a 4 door due to kids and dog, but if this was ever available in a 2 door - absolutely no question this would be in my garage! Would be insane!!

Hopefully by the time I buy one you don’t have to have the color matched top and fenders, I just don’t like it. Nor the advanced safety group.

The actual big question for me will be the price, given how porked up,it is with options.

As a side note, for any business owners out there it looks like the weight of this thing puts it in the tax deductible category

Doubt it. A well-equipped Rubicon tops $65,000.

This 392 starts with a well-equipped Rubicon, then adds a giant HEMI, a reinforced frame, beefier axles, bigger brakes, bigger tires, a full-time 4WD, etc., etc.

A selling price that’s 7% below invoice typically requires factory money/support, and that appears when sales are sluggish, but, assuming order numbers aren’t restricted by FCA, I‘m betting 5% off Monroni will be possible on personal orders.

Agreed, My quoted 7% under includes 1% Tread Lightly and $1,000 dealer financing. Just wondering if my dealer would be able to do it on a 392. I'd hit him up but too early. He won't know. I guess we had all better see a price first and go from there.

The forced body color top and flares is a big let down for me. I'm excited to watch the reveal and hear more, but I don't like those two pieces being a requirement.

Jeep better hope Ford doesn't throw a 5.0 V8 in Bronco at a reasonable price. I'd take that over this anyway.

You'd think. Since the Power Wagon and Raptor are about 55K I hope they'll keep it around that range. I doubt it though since something like the Hellcat Charger comes in at 67K. I don't think they care if they sell a bunch.
