    Right? Lol I didn't even think of it because he usually checks for that stuff. He has found me a few low mileage gems before so I was just excited.


    Hell shoulda just bought my 4runner and you would have been set instead of the durango:D

    I have driven a few of the newer rubicons and honestly...i would never buy one.

    Felt underpowered, even compared to my heavy as rig. And so loud on the road in normal use. Cramped as well. Only reason i would have one is to take the top off.

    I had both a 2dr and 4dr Rubicon. If I could have either one as an extra while still having my Tacoma I 100 percent would. The newer ones with the 3.6 and a 6 spees get around well, at least as well as my Tacoma does now with 285s. My roof never leaked and it took the off all the time.

    I know they dont get much love around here, but they can be fun if you remember why you buy a Jeep. Plus if you throw a set of 33s on an otherwise stock Rubicon, and you have something that can handle just about any trail around here. There's not much better than cruising around without doors off.
    As soon as more of the soccer moms start trading their 4drs off on the new model and the prices start to fall I think we will pick one up again.

    Definitely going to do the one in Idaho Falls, since it's only a two hour drive. Want to do the one in Boise, but I have a trip on the 15th and a six hour drive after walking around with the kids all day...well. But that's a badass air show to have in your backyard.

    I don't really have anything against them. I just think the 4runner is a better option. I did love cruising with the top off. I wouldn't want to buy a used Rubi unless it was a soccer mom selling it. And I wouldn't want to buy one unless it was a Rubi.

    If it isn't a Rubi it won't hold its value well at all.

    pretty sure its due to the superbumps not being frozen
