Real World Test Drive 2012 Jeep Wrangler

[636675guy]

the sounds so fucked up with head phones

[NickSkyMan]

Finally it has a caravan motor

[jstewart9356]

Ugh. I HATE people who only use their Wrangler on the road.

[Dann1403]

no power top? no backup camera? Dude... you're missing the point.

[midsgalal]

Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is also made in Egypt and it is a sort of a special edition

[surredneck66]

@midsgalal you are thinking of the jeep J8

[MrZebraUTTERS]

why the hell would you need a back-up camera...what are a retard its a f'n jeep

[postmann1000]

usa nature is damn nice!

[JeepCherokeeful]

Your Real World comes with PR persons! Wow... and a pain in her butt? In crawling situations the passenger usually gets out to perform spotting duties.

Dumbest jab at smarter persons, a 12V cooler gets plugged all the time in the cargo area. Close your mouth and just smile:) Many vehicles in the USA have two 12v outlets in front.

[jan1761]

you would want a power top you wuss!!

[fferguson1992]

@jan1761 and a back up camera? reallly? people can't back up without a camera nowadays?

[workingstiff76]

I wonder what kind of serious design flaws and class action lawsuits the new engine will end up with? Dodge Neon 2.0 and Dodge Intrepid 2.7 anyone?

[buggy4truck4]

Its a Jeep!! You dont need GPS If you want a gps gat a garmin, you dont need a back up camera if you need one you shouldnt be driving and the TJ can start on a hill with the clutch not being pushed in... The TJ have a factory over ride behind the glove box. The TJ was the last REAL jeep. And yes i own a TJ

[jeepjeepjeep1997]

If you want a power top and want to wear a bow tie in a pinguin suit, with your long sissie hair, get a Land Rover.

If you want to get down and dirty, get a Jeep, period!

[TheChris559]

@geenfeet83 you have to be a real man to spell right.

[weld3z]

what did he mean by without pushing the clutch ? 2:05

[billiardball001]

@weld3z i believe he meant hill assist, so the car doesn't roll backwords.

[outbackmontana]

Most people who by the 4 door are new to 4wheeling and like to play soccer!

[geenfeet83]

What a yuppie fag lol you have to be a rill man to drive a jeep

[paintslinger16]

wow yuppie review of a Jeep...Camera? Really its called a mirror learn to use it.

You can put the top up by yourself it just takes longer

[matthouse078]

that 6 speed has got to be fun as a bitch to drive off road

[transamman305]

Bitching about no backup camera and no power top? Clean your sandy vagina dude! It's a jeep wrangler, not some pussy mercedes SUV.

[Axeldude]

I was listening to this with my headphones. My right ear just got molested.

[RealWorldTestDrives]

According to the owner's manual, which includes a DVD on how to raise and lower the top, it shouldn't be done by one person. That said, check out my earlier review of the Rubicon Unlimited and you'll see part of the instructional video.

[MrSnubzy]

I agree, a power top would be a good thing. It should atleast be an option. Just wondering though, how long is it to put up the soft top by yourself?

[johnnylove1234]

no back up camera? siriously...

[maico125]

This guy is a weenie! "No backup camera" Obvious he has no clue...

[fantastiko111]

@maico125 He just keeps admitting in the video that he's a horrible driver over and over again!

[Gersh10]

I do have to laugh... It's obvious the narrator isn't a jeep person or ever will be. I'd like to see a real jeep person do a review. Backup camera??? Buy a minivan... and getting my suit wet... Watch the morning weather report. I've put up my top in on an older JKU very quickly and the new soft top on the 2012 is even easier.

Please get a real jeep person to evaluate the 2012 jeep's off-roading capability... Drag race my jeep? It's a jeep! I do like the extra power to get me up the mountain.

[SillySeaWeed]

@Gersh10 "Backup camera??? Buy a minivan" No Doubt!! And what ever happened to that old fashioned process of just 'looking behind' your damn self!! It killed me with the suit and tie/power top comment. Oh well, must be fun to test drive/review multitudes of cars nonetheless!

[superhawkn]

need diesel please today 2.0l will work

[scottishbadboytracks]

Back up camera?try using your mirrors numbnuts

[SuperJeepz]

lol @ people saying the 3.6 is a "car" engine. Cool argument. Too bad the 3.6 is still worlds more powerful and economic than the 4.0. Deal with it.

[Fynn1974]

Wait - stop everything! It DOESN'T have a power top or a backup camera?!?!?!

Someting tells me that this guy is well outside to core demographic.

I have a Jeep - it takes 2 minutes to put the top up and that includes zipping in the widnows. As for a backup camera... well last time I checked, I had this thing called a neck that allowed me to turn my head and look behing me.

[dhena81]

Maybe you should get yourself a Land Rover buddy.

[usabadone]

No back up. Camera.  What. A. Fag

[JSSJeepin]

@usabadone No eyeballs? what a......

[RaffettoSpeaks]

A back-up camera would get dusted/mudded over or broken on the trail. Come on, man.

[info2002kr]

Looking forward to this 2012 model, most of the jeeps sold in Asia and Europe have diesel engines, 2.8 liter. Hope they up grade that too.

BUT REALLY, THE GUY DRIVING IS A YUPPY HE DOESN'T BELONG OR DESERVE TO BE IN A JEEP!!!! PERIOD! Please take down this video and get a real man or woman testing it!!

[mmiller1188]

It's still a car engine, has NO place in a Jeep. At least it won't spin bearings every 50k like the 3.8

[mmiller1188]

It's still a CAR engine. Has to place in a jeep. But hey, it probably won't spin bearing every 50k like the 3.8

[gittyupcomeon]

what a wangchung

[arelb28]

mythical tailgaiting try towing you dumb ass

[transistor311]

why is this guy reviewing any vehicle? 

[israeluzcategui]

yeah too bad it dosent have a SLK like retractable hardtop...NOT!

[noblinger]

This guy is a toolbox.

[gurupurkha]

No backup camera? This guy deserves to lose his job for mentioning such an irrelevant option in a car, let alone a Jeep.

[Shabbernigdo]

@gurupurkha i know right. This guys a d bag. Its a fkn jeep i dont want a million gadgets i want a bullet proof 4wd vehicle that i can run shit over with.

I miss my TJ : (

[TheRiobezerko]

Finally! Some decent acceleration! Not too sure about this 4-door "sedan" type shit.

[old12school3]

So when will jeep get smart and put a DIESEL in it?

[Shabbernigdo]

@old12school3 soon i hope im really tired of wating.

[GoHenneGo]

@old12school3 In Germany you can get it with a diesel since 2 years. :-)

[MrJeepyj87]

@old12school3

in europe they exist with a 4 cyl 2.8liter common rail diesel with 200hp..

[jeepjeff018]

@old12school3

when will they give us back the 4.0 I6?

[JSSJeepin]

@jeepjeff018 Never I hope. That engine would be so gutless in the JKs (the 3.8 has MORE power, you know?) and the 3.6 worlds more. long live the V6s, RIP 4.0 I6

[darthik]

@old12school3 Hi I think diesel is available only in EU market. 2.7 CRD made by VM Motori. But I do not know whether they are planning same engine for NA market.

[pipthemakem]

@old12school3 there is one already but it isn't made available world wide yet as far as i know

[mahatmacoatmahandbag]

@old12school3 2013

[Spankyshooter]

@old12school3 They have a wrangler with a diesel, but it's not sold in America.

[NemeanLion]

@ 4:08 WHO CARES? It's a friggin Jeep, and not for gadget happy wimps who only use it to drive it Starbucks, to buy a soy mocha latte with extra whipped cream.

[dirtymodevil12]

@NemeanLion mmmmm you seem to go to starbucks a lot to know their drinks...

[SeanMCMLXVI]

@NemeanLion lol... if I buy it I'll drive it wherever I want... and drink whatever the hell I want

[hawaiiboysz]

@NemeanLion whats a soy mocha?



[crashaddict71]

I had a 2007 jk and I think every possible part on it broke at one point. In 2008 it was at the dealership garage 162 days out of 365. So maybe change is good :). Still love jeeps though

[Frdmstang]

@crashaddict71 I also had an 07 that I bought new. It was fully modified and it broke quite a few things. The worst part was the old 3.8 liter engine. The new engine was a much needed upgrade. My 2 door with 4.10 gears and 35 inch tires was a complete dog and got awful gas mileage. The fact it had a few hundred extra pounds from armor and recovery gear didn't help matters. If someone were to do the same things to the new Jeep I think it would be much easier to live with on a daily basis.

[chrishoyt161718]

@crashaddict71 wow O_o how hard did you drive yours off road. my 2005 never did anything like that, and i also love me some jeeps =]

[mrjones944]

Dude that jacket has got to go.

[89Carfreak]

@mrjones944 LOL

[jamesjr934]

If you don't want to be caught in rain while on the way to a meeting put the top up before you leave. Power top in a Jeep? Please! Worst "review" yet of the 2012.

[SuperJeepz]

Just 8.4 seconds? :( How is it that the V6 Challenger with the same engine can do way better than that? With TALLER gears?

[and2244rew]

@SuperJeepz wheels and tires, aerodynamics, and the pentastar makes 20 more horsepower in the challenger.  Motortrend ran 6.7 in a sport manual which should be the fastest configuration. I believe the 8.4 is for the unlimited sahara automatic.

[bader175]

@SuperJeepz its all in the aerodynamics....and yes they do affect it that much

[dobbins2550]

American made baby. Do want.

[ncethngs]

jealous. i want one.

[cdh731]

Great vehicle to own, even better now that it has the new engine/trans. My only complaints about my 2008 is the interior fit/finish, which they changed in 2011, and the powertrain which they changed for 2012....Can't wait to trade mine in on a new one.
