The rubicons do have a good kit and package for off roading, they are rarely used for that when new these days. Locking differentials for example are typically an off road specific feature.

Other than that classic front grill and round headlights … those things are just glorified hatchbacks with a lift-kit

I’ve known several friends who have gone out to buy and own Jeeps … a few with Rubicons … and I have yet to see any of them take them off roading, or even on a rough dirt road. I had one female friend who constantly kept hers shined up and would get terribly upset if any mud or dust accumulated on the paint finish.

The culture has changed. The rubicon has been a package offer for several models and years. Usually its the 3rd or 4th owner that finally takes advantage of the package.

Glorified hatchbacks with a lift-kit and a cult.
