mojave or rubicon

[The White Rabbit]

Mojave all the way and by far superior! Keep in mind, I have owned a 2003 Rubicon for over 20 years. I preordered mine and received it in late 2002.

I’m going out on a limb but I think @JETT_83 might disagree with your assessment

Bolstering is better, neither are comfortable though, seats are too firm

As a Tacoma owner with the pleather option they are comfortable lol

When you are ready to make the move, whether you choose the Rubi or Mojo, add the Desert-Does-It Seat Jackers. A simple milled aluminum block set that installs under the front seat frame to floor mounts. Added them to my JTM (along with a dead pedal) transformed my comfort to a level I didn't expect with the lower leg support I was looking for.

FIXED FRONT SEAT JACKERS - JEEP - 2018 WRANGLER TO 2021 WRANGLER JL, JLU, & GLADIATOR – Desert Does It

Thanks for the info ?

Those seats must really suck then because they’re so uncomfortable

He’s right, Mojave is trash, stay away!

My question is why didn’t Jeep just make only 1 trim out of Rubicon/Mojave? A Mojabicon? Frame is reinforced in Mojave plus adding front lockers, sway bar disconnect is the best of both worlds.

Your answers are Diesel and transfer cases. While the extra cooling the mojave gets can be added to any model with a towing package already, and the frame reinforcement could easily be made a Rubicon feature as well, there's nothing you can do about the engine choices and the transfer cases. A rubi should really have the 4:1 transfer case, whereas a desert runner really wouldn't want a 30mph top speed in 4lo. Additionally, the diesel engine does have heat issues, and would not be suited to a desert runner (which is why the diesel isn't an option for the Mojave to begin with. The only trim that wont let you select diesel).

As to why you couldn't just add SBD and front lockers to a mojave? that creates a defined delineation between the rubi and jave, and I don't think Jeep wanted to imply the Rubicon was the lesser of the two trims. Leaving the two trims as personal preference was almost certainly intentional.

Don't be jealous , everyone truly knows that the Mojave is the most versatile vehicle known to the civilian world! Undisputed!

You can add a locker and sbd in your driveway

Why not add 4:1 transfer case to the Mojave? Can’t you drive 50mph in 4hi? Why would 4low be needed for desert speed?

It has 4:10 gears like the rubi but the transfer case is 4hi and 4 low are 2 72:1 for the higher speeds on the sand

The odd years are. The 2021's. The 2020 and 2022 don't measure up.


Sorry bro.






=D

The Mojave has the ability to go the fastest in 4lo.
