Howdy y'all!!!! I'm new to the site. My name is Ray and I live in a small town just southeast of San Antonio, Tx. called Floresville. I'm 35 yrs old and is a full-time student. I don't have a JK yet but I will be shopping for one this week. Maybe y'all can give me some advice. I'm fairly new to 4x4 and not sure which would be better for me, for sure it will be a 2 dr automatic but I'm still on the fence as to pick a Rubicon or an X model. For the most part I would probably use the Jeep for mild off-roading, camping, fishing, and driving on sand and mud. Oh and this will be my daily driver. Thanks!!!!

 

Welcome to JK-Forum Ray. I'm sure you will be able to get all you questions answered here and help you decide on what model to get.

 

Welcome to the forum!

 

Welcome to the site.

 

Welcome friend. It sure seems like we're getting a lot of new people from Texas lately.
Just spend some time reading these posts and you'll figure it out.
Good luck on yer JK shopping!

 

Howdy from the right side of the great state of Texas...welcome to the forum I would recommend a Rubi, you have some great wheeling spots near you you will get hooked

 

welcome to the forum

 

Welcome Dangermouse! (cool name).
If you haven't picked yet - you already know you got to do what the budget allows. If you price an X with the goodies you want take you near the price of a Rubi - you might seriously consider the Rubi (popularity, resale, and especially the 4:10 gearing if you don't option out the X accordingly).
Let us know what you get - and post some pictures!

PS - are there still 2008's on the lot that haven't sold? I'll bet they are quite the bargain now!

 

Welcome fellow Texan.

Well, when you take it offroad for the first time, you will no longer be "mild offroading". You will be hooked. Good luck with the search and welcome to the forum.
