Default Did a crazy thing today....

I traded my '08 X with 3200 miles (see sig) for an '08 Rubicon! Now the fun begins, swapping over everything to the new one. The dealer is giving me 4 days to return the old one back to stock, luckily I kept everything. So, looking at my sig, do you guys see anything that may not want to swap over to a Ruby? Thanks!

Oh yeah, here's the main options of the new one:

Power Group
Dual Tops
Tow Package
Remote Start
MYGIG
Typical Rubicon Stuff

I had considered that exact same thing, and actually had at one time the axles on order, but you still lack the 4:1 crawl ratio of the T-Case, and the sway disconnect, oh, and the decals
