I drive by on my way home from work and openly mock you.

You probably have ducks on your dash too.
I resemble that remark! I might have a few ducks on my dash haha. But I'm keeping count. I have more ducks than my wife. That's all that matters to me.

This is it! This is what we jeep builders laugh about every time we are told the only jeep to buy is the Rubicon trimmed version. Most never use it for it’s purpose. Not using the lockers will definitely cause failure.
Look, if you want a Rubicon… this person says no place to off road AND they would even take a JT in a 2 wheel drive version if offered…

JUST BUY THE DAMN HOOD STICKER AND IF YOU MUST, then get the rubicon hood with the fake vents. ?‍♂
Blasphemy. Stickers and vents on a non rubicon? The worst of the terrible. If you wheel a non-rubicon, own it. Don’t hide behind stickers on a sport.

Bahahaa! Who cares, most of the soccer moms around here have no idea what the Rubicon sticker means on their hood… but they love the sticker!

if you like the look I say go for it and pay no attention to these stupid… “oh I paid too much money for my Rubicon so you can’t put Rubicon parts on your sport and you should just “own” your sport”… ?

my JT identifies as a Rubicon… I guess she was just born that way?

Just like all on here if you bought it and your name is on the title… or the loan ? then do as you wish.
Own that Summit Dan! ?

of course I mean this in the truest of jest… Sport!

It’s a fun thread. I feel bad that you’re overcompensating though. Meet me on a trail. We’ll find out pretty quickly if rubicons are a waste of money. I do agre they’re a waste for non-off-roaders. But if you rock crawl, there are very few substitutes. :)

Okay, name it Dan, I’ll be your huckleberry.
From the factory, yeah your pretty close to being right. The Bronco is pretty good now though.

aftermarket is a LOT better than the sum of factory Rubicon parts though.

- ARB Lockers
- Aftermarket Suspension
- aftermarket sway bar DC’s
- aftermarket T-Cases

I have the wide axles
I have the 4:10 gears soon to be 5:13’s
I have 37’s
- the ARB lockers added very soon as well
- I’ll have the SwayLOC’s on soon as well.

so… let’s go Ruby Dan

Definitely a nice setup, but how much more than a Rubi?
