Jeep: Appreciating in value everyday Ranger: Depreciating in value everyday

Exactly!

Nice thing about the old jeep is that if it breaks down on you out on the trail, you can probably get it home using a hammer, a couple wrench’s, and a coat hanger. Try that with the Ranger! 😂😎

As a jeep owner myself i prefer the jeep any day, its more useful than that go kart with a bed.

Rebuilding my 1961 CJ5 right now and have had a side by side. It is no comparison I’ll take the Willys any day!

4hijas haha thank you! I do too but I am a little biased myself 🤷🏼‍♂️ thanks for watching!

One huge difference between the two is the speed at which you can tackle obstacles and run down the trails. The Jeep will likely go wherever the Ranger will but the Ranger would do it much quicker and much more comfortably than the CJ. That said....the CJ is all sorts of cool and would be the one I'd pick if I had to choose.

We will just have to see what the Ranger looks like in 50 years....

My wife and I are in for a CJ. We did this comparison months ago. I can’t maintain a side by, but anyone can work on an old Jeep. And $10,000 savings.

My UTV is a 1990 Toyota 4x4 Reg cab short bed.

If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure you could get a hydraulic dump bed for the CJ back in the day. I vaguely remember seeing it in that old black and white promotional that Willy's made to go over their catalogue of add ons and accessories. It was circa late '40s/ early '50s. Edit- So I looked it up after typing up this comment and I was wrong. You could get the dump bed for the Willy's pickup. The CJ had a extended bed you could put on the rear so you could throw more stuff in the back and I'm pretty sure I had those mixed up. Here's the vid if any of y'all want to watch it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/p2uHzsdxiJerirA.html

I have a two foot bed extension that I use on my flatfender Jeeps. Adds or removes just like a tailgate. www.ewillys.com/2020/06/13/1956-koenig-brochure-for-the-dj-3a-dispatcher/

As someone who uses a CJ for general purpose off-highway use, there is no comparison. Hitch a 32 ft RV to that ranger and see how far it gets... or recover a buried 3/4 ton Chevy. Good luck! Cool video man. Nice tuxedo park

@@petitepatate9727 Around a yard, no problem. They've been used as 'mules' to tow aircraft for decades.

For purely sentimental reasons, I pick the CJ 5. I used one to hunt mulies and antelope on my uncle’s ranch when I was in high school. Great video.

I’ve owned both. One of my first vehicles was a ‘57 Willys Jeep. I’ll take the CJ-5 any day. Simple to maintain and bullet proof.

The Jeep can rust? Yes. But the Polaris PLASTIC can get old, faded, and crack. I own the exact same Jeep, just one year older and White in color. :)

Without adding an overdrive kit or a new transmission, changing out the gearing in your differentials will help with your speed issue. That 4 cylinder can get you up to 65 comfortably, on a clear day, but I find if you are going against a strong gust of wind, it will struggle at 65, 55 is more likely in bad weather with a 4 cylinder. Something to play around with.

I agree! If you’d like to watch some of my more recent videos, I did recently install a Saturn overdrive and found out why my little F-head didn’t seem to have much pep. Thanks so much for watching!

That looks like some really nice property and off road comparison of the Jeep and the Polaris. Next video you ought to compare on the road capabilities and then, Oh wait, the Polaris isn't on road legal. Dang. Jeep wins.

I vote for jeep

I pick up my cj5 March 1rst. I vote jeep.

Can't say with this particular side by side, but at my local central Florida off road park 10,000 acres . On the main trails I often see them stuck in mud because the tires aren't tall enough with the suspension components hanging down and a jeep/ truck ruts Many times I wait as they get pulled out and effortlessly drive my 3 inch lifted front locked jeep wj right through..many times Definitely want tires as tall as the jeeps if you want to drive the jeep groove

Nice jeep!

Should’ve towed the ranger with the CJ for optimal trash talk!

And…what videos have you produced? Share a link, I’ll wait, since you obviously can do it much better.

I have a 1962 CJ5 21k original miles, F134 and I can do 60 mph, not sure why his can only do 45mph. Maybe the tires? I prefer the old Jeeps over the side by side.

No it does not! Plus for the CJ!

Eu tenho um CJ5 1963 minha filha um Polaris , sempre que ela chegar aos eixos, eu vou fazer o resgate com o meu CJ5 rssssss. quando eu me retiro do pântano eu continuo rebocando para casa para causar risos. rssss.

as a Jeeep fan those cjs are known to be horrid rust buckets

Will that ranger be around in 50 years? Doubtful

Jeeps are better🤣🤣🤣 there both pretty cool

That jeep is worth around 12,000 you have it’s clean or even mower

In ten years the CJ will be at least twice as valuable as it is now and the Polaris will junked out somewhere.

yak yak, nothing. i have a ranger with cf moto 660cc engine and a 74 cj5 304. depends on what you doing.

I have a CJ5. 1973. Are those new machines faster, smoother riding? Sure. But my jeep has been around for 50 years and will be around in another 50! I have a chevy v8 in mine! Its a versitile platform, i can put the big axles -tranny , tires ect on.... Let me know when your new light weight buggy is scrap , ill come CRUSH it for ya haha. You look way cooler in a nice vintage American made vehicle! Unless you LIKE the golf cart look haha. One is easy to fix noatter what breaks...the other is almost impossible to fix on your own.. The chooce was clear to me 😊
