Welcome to the new Jeep 392 Forum, please post an introduction thread!

Hi I'm a old time jeep owner. My first jeep was a new 72 cj5 renegade 304 that I transplanted a 401 max motor in. That was a fun ride and made me a jeep fan for life.
My present jeep is a 78 cj5 with a very healthy chevy v8 and upgraded drivetrain.
I placed an order for a rubicon 392 on Feb 12. I can't wait for delivery and to share the journey with the group.
Welcome to the 392 Forum @kerite - congrats on the order!
 
Hello all. I became a Jeeper in 1998 when I bought a 1994 YJ. I sold that one and bought a 2003 TJ Rubicon. It was totaled. Love that year so much that I bought another 2003 TJ Rubicon, and I'm keeping that for the rest of my life. I placed my order for the 392 today! Waiting impatiently already.

Welcome to the waiting room! Congrats and you’ll learn to live vicariously thru those early purchasers receiving them now... great to get their perspectives while we wait.
 
Hi! I currently own a 2011 JKU Rubicon which is my 3rd Wrangler and 2nd Rubicon. I'm stoked for the 392 as I've been hemming and hawing about throwing a V8 in my current rig. Good to meet you all! The waiting .... it's like I'm a 10 year-old on Christmas Eve. The order was placed for my 392 on 12/7.

Welcome @David! Do you have a delivery date yet?
 
I don't. It moved to status D on 4/7/21
Oh man! I just placed my order this week and I'm already anxious about it. Sorry you've had to wait this long and continue to wait. I know dealers don't have any control over when they get their orders, but has your dealer given you any reason about this long of a delay?
 
Hello, glad to be here. Nice to be able to talk to people and not have to explain that the question they think they know the answer to is old info from two model Jeeps ago.

In addition, every time a 392 comes up every hater that would love to have one instead of trying to help just talks about what idiots we are for buying a gas guzzler.

This is refreshing and I can get answers straight and to the point.
 
Welcome to the forum @Smess -

This is definitely a community that talks more about smiles per gallon then miles per gallon 😂

They just started making them mid-Jan. We ordered ours 3-13, it arrived 6-17, a month earlier than anticipated.
It seems, the more extras added, the longer it takes.
not really a long wait considering -

Welcome to the forum @Jjirish - Congrats on the new Jeep! Were you able to drive the 110? Just wondering how it compares against the 392?

Yes. The 110 drove nice. I didn't take it over 45mph tho.
But. It. Can't. Compare.

The 110 is a suv which needs the v8 for any real passing power. Its comfortable and I love the interior in the hse edition (the other interiors are blah INO). But like I said - its just a suv, with no accessories or oem parts available - and everything you'd want to add, starting with the side steps - require a phd practically to install despite being specifically made for the 110. Its mind boggling how impossible jlr made everything involved with the defender a huge headache. I was very excited for my 110 when we ordered it, but I am so lucky I came to my senses and stayed loyal to jeep. This hemi is now the main man in my life!
 
Well, I guess I am supposed to post an introduction…

currently driving a lifted XK as my daily, and waiting for my Recon Xtreme to arrive so that I can save on gas… lol.
