Or just buy better parts then the rubi comes with and upgrade your x or Sahara to something better than a rubi. There's tons of options out there for the jk

I dont think it is fraud or anything like that. really the only way they can get introuble is if they sell it to you telling you its a rubicon jeep. (explaining all the rubicon extras) if they just call it a wrangler and on all the paper work it says wrangler its shame on they buyer. A sticker wouldnt be enough for fraud.

I absolutely agree! If you're gonna build it, improve on what jeep offered.

I dont know about anyone else, but I noticed a significant improvement off-road, as soon as I added knock-off Rubicon stickers to my 2wd X Unlimited. Next mod is tires, then a long ride to Moab.

Yeah, and both vehicles have their Rubicon stickers in black. If I were to spend time & money to make my own Jeep a Fakeicon, I would at least order the correct sticker color for my paint color.

I'd imagine this car dealer has several of those Rubicon stickers, all in black, ready to through on the next Wrangler that comes on their lot.

I did not notice that they both had the same exact decal it must definitely be the dealer, I would report them for false advertising. Also you should go check the sticker price for them if they are rubicon resale value then that means they really are trying to scam people. Is it a Chrysler or a privately owned one?

Alright, just a minute there, I have one question..... Why Juan? Did anyone else catch that? Why not Bob? Chuck? Chance? Brandon? Dakota? What about muhammad? Ackmed? Yang? Dwayan?...just saying does he have to be of mexican descent.

But....Truth be told buyer beware!

Looks to be a private dealer with all the different makes of cars on the lot.
