    Black on Black RUBICON

    OK, I know it's blasphemous to say this….but dayam, this black Jeep Rubicon is awesome! I love the Exo, fender flares, front bumper, roof basket and everything is coated in a light bedliner texture.
    And I really like those ProComp Xtreme Mud tires, just like hubby has.
    All the mods just go together and work, making it one bad arse looking rig!
    Jay, I expect yours to look like this soon!

    Thats not an exo cage...purely a roof rack that works with the removable top. But it is a sharp looking mall crawler

    OK, wrong choice of words…I took 4 yrs of Latin, so it's an exo to me cuz it's outside/around the truck…but not a complete exo that protects. I wouldn't call it your average mall crawler, …you say that cuz it doesn't look like yours? It's got some serious chit on it….whether it's used or not is another story..

    The ad says it has never been off-road! Why get all that stuff if you're not going to use it? Looks COOL though!

    I can actually understand hanging doo-dads all over your vehicle for bling effect if that floats yer boat, but springing for a 10,000 lb winch with synthetic line for a rig that never goes off-road?

    That thing is actually a pretty decent value given all the upgrades, and a Rubi Wrangler that has never been off road, southern presumably rust-free truck, with the old 4.0L, is about exactly what I would want if I was in the market for a Wrangler.

    Yes and why buy a Rubicon if you never plan on 4 wheeling it??? You're paying for components you'll never use and nobody can see-- other than the sticker.

    Still it looks pretty good but lots of bolt-ons. Nothing unique about this one... it can all be bought out of a 4wheelparts.com catalog.

    And why would you do all this within 5000 miles of selling it or trading it in...I know that life happens, but man what a waste...

    Are we waiting for zombies in the sky too? Gotta get em in the spotlight before you shoot em with a soon to be banned "assault" rifle.

    Aside from it not being black, IMO, this is what a Jeep should look like.
