Neither .....don't want the driving dynamics of the wrangler and a motor that heavy in it

Bronco doesn't need a 7.3 that's show to be more of a work horse rather than a sportier motor like the 5.0. Hell I would even rather have the H.O EcoBoost motor in the bronco over the Godzilla. Only package that makes sense to me for a Godzilla motor is a tremor

I bet you’d buy a 1911 chambered in 9mm too...

I'm partial to the Bronco as I bought a 1969 rust bucket to use the axles, transmission/transfer case into my V8 swapped 1992 Ranger (hence my user name). Bought a 1972 Bronco Sport with the intent to restore, but funds going into my Ranger derailed that and I had a 1986 Eddie Bauer edition Bronco II that I drove until the motor started knocking (sold to buy the Ranger). This was all in HS and I like many of us, if I could go back in time, I would have focused on the '72 Bronco!

7.3L is potentially a more mod friendly engine.
That being said, one is a pipe dream, and the other is at least hinted.

If only FCA would **** off with the MDS crap. Whoopie, save 3%-5% on mpg, and have your lifters shit out after 60k.


I'm a Ford guy first and foremost, but will jump ship when they don't offer anything that I want in a certain class.

My friends boss has a 2018+ Wrangler with a 392 under the hood. He said some shop back east did the swap and it’s so clean it looks factory. Even the factory Jeep gauges/cluster works with the 392.
