Pictures of Stock 2 dr. Rubis Offroad? - Help Convince the Girlfriend!
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to convince the girlfriend of the awesomeness of a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, that its not a total waste of money, that a trailer is a good idea vs. a 4 door. Switzerland - so snow is a bonus.
Basically, modifications to vehicles are illegal here, so if I want a decent offroad rig, I have to buy not build
I want the elec. disconnect and lockers

I know it isn't a 2 door, but if a 4 door can do it, then a 2 door can too. The suspension is pretty much stock (just a different front spring to compensate for the bumper).

With the deals on Jeeps right now, Rubi is the way to go. I'm sooooo happy I decided to get mine. I was planing on an X even had money for mods in the bank ready to spent, but I decided I wanted a Rubi and the wife let me get it after I showed her the prices on Elec. Sway bar disconnects, Lockers, tires... Paid the mode money to help cover the difference in the X and Rubi. Wouldn't have been enough to get the Disconnects and lockers so I come out to the good.
it worked for me. I still want bigger tires but since it came with the BFG MTs I'm good to go for a lot of trails out of the gate.
Good times She'll love riding around with Rubicon on the hood.

Rmember this...the JK Rubicon in stock form has been run on the Rubicon trail to be tested. Not too many vehicles straight off the assembly line can say that. Here are a few vids for you to show your girl...

Stop right there!!! This is only your girlfriend, not even your wife yet. If you have to convince her now how to spend your money, I could only imagine how your life is going to be once you get married. I basically told my wife I was getting a Jeep and thats it. I actually called her from the dealer after I signed on the dotted line to tell her I would be home a little late and not to wait for me for dinner.

Of course I'm buying the jeep, I just want to do it with her enthusiasm and understanding.
