The fully loaded Rubi will cost me 40,000. The COD MW3 will cost me 42,000. Decisions decisions.

I don't like the bumpers on the MW3, so I would go for the Rubi. Don't like those bumpers either, but not paying extra for them.

It's not stickers.

It's front and rear bumpers that are 100% better than stock that is winch ready

It's got real rock rails

It's got leather seats

Blacked out grill, gas cap cover, tail light guard,

Have not seen or heard of ANY dealer taking 6500 off msrp for 2012 COD's.

I like it but I think it may not be as cool in a few years. I cannot make up my mind so I figured I would ask you for help. Thanks.
It will be out of style in November when Black Ops 2 comes out.

Seriously if you take away the badges then it's just a couple after market items you can easily add yourself. if you like the after market items on it for the price then go for it, if not or there are other items you would prefer then don't.

I'd take a Rubi with a lift/tires over a rubi with bumpers and badges any day of the week though.

I have an 11' JKU Rubi. and I like those MW3's. If the price you pay for an MW3 including the bumper upgrades etc. is close to what it would cost to buy a Rubi. and put that stuff on yourself then an MW3 is a bargain.
Those complaining about the price of the MW3's may be in a different income level; if affording an MW3 is no big deal then an MW3 is a decent bargain considering the parts you get.

It depends.....if you're like 12 years old you get the MW3 if you are an adult get the Rubi. For me I can't stand the AEV bumpers, especially the tubeless version, so on that basis alone I would pass. Oh, and not to mention the childish looking MW3 logos. But hey it is your money do what you want!!!
