    Thanks for joining Tommy and Roman on this first new Wrangler road-trip. So just how fast is the new Wrangler from 0-60 MPH?. You can find out here: ruclips.net/video/6ZZwLWPekp0/видео.html

      Can the bumper hold a winch on the sahara

      Will the 3.0L comes in manual trans?

    • @TFLcar
      @TFLcar  6 лет назад +2

      No, you have to get the Rubicon for that bumper.

    • @Seventh7Art
      @Seventh7Art 6 лет назад +1

      Ηοw about a drag race or comparison (0-60 & 0-100) between the JLU 2.0 L Turbo and the 3.6 V6 Pentastar which makes more power but less torque and has fewer gears too! What do you think?

    This is so cool that you got your son involved in TFL doing stuff like this and road tripping. These are life defining memories being formed... and the content is solid, but I’m just happy for you.

    1st let me say, without a doubt, you guys do not have any competition on youtube. This was a great vlog, I’m not a Jeep guy but you both put doubts in my head, the new JL looks really attractive. Thanks for your hard work.

    • @throttleblip1

      Rickoh75 they suck on 0-60 times...

    • @willmiller9631
      @willmiller9631 6 лет назад +3

      Vincent Affatati they're done @1m above sea level.

    • @svenskfox
      @svenskfox 6 лет назад +2

      Right, which is irrelevant to the majority of viewers.

    • @skiptastic1000
      @skiptastic1000 6 лет назад +2

      They film the 0-60 times at Colorado elevations, which they always mention . Are you thick?

    • @svenskfox
      @svenskfox 6 лет назад +1

      Right, and the 0-60 time at those elevations is irrelevant to anyone that doesn't live a mile above sea level. It's not really a mark against their quality but the 0-60 times they run aren't consistent with their competition, who do tests at elevations that are more in line with most of the viewers.

    You guys are my favorite channel for car reviews. As realistic as it gets and answers the questions that most people would ask about the type of vehicle you're reviewing....not just testing some generic metrics just for the hell of it. It's especially cool to see the family atmosphere that your channel brings!

    Awesome video guys. We had a wrangler JL in California for a week on vacation exact same setup you guys ran...1 tank we got 389 miles out of it! I was impressed it lasted an entire week a lot of our afternoons was spent is traffic in LA but even then it did really well on fuel economy.

  • @blight819
    @blight819 6 лет назад

    Truly loved this video. It shows what a wrangler can really do and I'm sure the up grade in transmission and other non-seen goodies contributed to the good gas mileage. Cannot wait to see what the diesel will do.

  • @danielreigada1542
    @danielreigada1542 6 лет назад +1

    Great video. The Portillo's you went to is actually in Tempe (I know, it's right next to Phoenix). I'd go more often if they served beer.

  • @dmwil1
    @dmwil1 6 лет назад +2

    I saw one thing I love...The fender light, at least with the headlights on, does not turn off when the turn signal is blinking. I hate that LED DRL equipped vehicles typically shut off the DRL on the side that is signalling for a turn. We'll see if it does this when headlights are off and DRL's only are on. It's just a small pet peve, but it bugs me every time I see it. Great video, guys! Keep the JL Wrangler content coming! It is helping me pass the time until mine is delivered.

    • @jameswilliamson7355
      @jameswilliamson7355 6 лет назад

      Principal Skinr The DRL shutoff when blinkers are used is to stay compliant with DOT lumen output limits.

    • @bradgt5130
      @bradgt5130 6 лет назад

      Principal Skinr federal law for the Lumens limits. If the drl interferes with the turning signal to where another vehicle can’t notice it shuts off. From the videos so far it seems like fca turned down the led of the wrangler so it doesn’t have to shut off.

  • @recon455
    @recon455 6 лет назад

    Funny. Earlier this month I wondered the same thing about Moab to Boulder on one tank in my 80 series Land Cruiser. I made it with some serious diligence about using the throttle, with about 3 gallons left until completely empty (the light turns on with 5 gallons left).

    @grigoriyrusputin5112 6 лет назад +1

    Great video!
    Roman,somewhere you mention you prefer the manual. I got job for you.
    On JL they switched gauges around, putting tachometer on left. I had drove cars with tachometer on left and my left hand was blocking the gauge while driving and shifting. Making it more like shifting by noise of the engine. Therefore eliminating need for tachometer since you can’t see RPM when you need it.
    I would appreciate if you could test that for us. Thanks.

      @BelovedChatter 5 лет назад +1
