kj in a tight spot you are going to love the new Rubi and it sounds like you already do. As far as going back to a stick the hardest part for me was trying to pass on "the dotted section" of a two lane road when you start from 6th. Getting down to fourth quickly is a little tricky when you have not done it in a while.

Bad news, watch the clutch. It seems that the clutch for this year TJ has had some problems. I have had to take mine to the shop because the clutch will not disengauge when the pedal is pressed (sometimes). Hopefully this will not be a problem in yours and this has been my only negitive mark on my Rubi.

Congrats on the new ride!

First mod: Ditch the milk jugs. You can get flat bumper end caps at the stealership for under 3 bucks each. :)

Carnut: What ken says. Wheel what you bring. Stick with this list long enough and you'll find LOST is more about good folks that it is about KJs.

The only dark side of being a Rubi owner is you're at the top of the food chain.

Everytime you get stuck, everyone will say "That dude took the wrong line, I could have made that."

Get stuck in a Liberty, Everyone says "It's not his fault he's driving a Liberty, they aren't made for that"

Drive your Liberty right thru a mud pit a rubi just got stuck in, like we did at the camp jeep pre-run this weekend and you are a master jedi! :twisted:


Is it just me, or is your damage list in your signature starting to grow a little faster??? :shock:
