I'm gonna put an "M3" emblem on mine. I hope to get mo' POWA!! And smoke all posers at street lights.

Why spend a premium on the Rubicon when you can build up an X. Hello most Rubicon owners end up swapping out tires, rims, gears, shocks, springs, rubi rails, ditching all that "Rubi" stuff anyway. Buy an X and do the same thing.

Got a friend that laments they spent $40,000+ on a brand spankin' new 2008 4 door Rubicon back in 2007 and looks like a stocker compared to mine.

Told him his "Rubicon" sticker was good for +5 horsepower.

Sorry Dude, but I have to repeat:

There are only 2 important parts on the Rubi:

#1 The Rubicon transfert case 4.1 (instead of 2.72 on the other models)
#2 The front Dana 44

For the other parts, you can easely buy lockers, quick discos, etc

Sure #1 and #2 nice to have but I think you can live without them and handle most of the wheelin' an average dude will do. Get most of the other Rubi stuff second hand and away you go

Good Deal. Sounds like you had a hungry salesman + hungry dealer.
