Default Sahara?

My guess is Sahara...to me the side steps are what sell it as a Sahara. would be a shame to remove the rock rails of a Rubi for those (Not that they are by any means great rails)

Not that it doesn't happen, but wouldn't you think it'd be illegal to hawk a modified Sahara or X as a Rubicon? It's misleading at the least. A dealer misleading customers??? SHOCKING!!!

I'd say Sahara since it's a lot easier to find Rubi tires and a sticker than finding the painted Sahara flares. Looks good either way, even if it is Silver...:toung:

On seeing the Arkansas plates, I'd say someone from Arkansas would take the path of least resistance, so it's a Sahara with Rubicon decs and wheels.

It's a Saharicon, with the wrong sticker!

I'll guess it is a Sahara that someone swapped wheels and added a sticker too. but it really is just about impossible to tell from those shots.
If it's an X fixed up with Sahara and Rubi parts, does that make it a Sexacon?
