My friend has a rubicon and is always wanting me to mud my jeep. I said I really don't want to but I will if you will mud yours I will mine. I get the "I paid 14k for mine and you only gave 4k."

****ing tards. Every Rubicon I see come up for sale is like "Jeep was never taken offroad" The only exception I take is this one TJ Rubi that was mint. Not a *spec* of rust, and I live in salt land. Some drivetrain wear but otherwise a brand new TJ Rubi for $13k lol

All mud really is is hold it to the floor and hope for the best lol a good trail and rocks is where its at! lol
Mud is the worst thing you can do to a vehicle. I don't mind it every now and then, bu wear and tear and RUST are problems. Especially on a daily driver with 212k, not to mention they haven't built an XJ since '01, we gotta make em last a while. Rocks and snow? Hell yeah! Mud, just not for my Jeep.

I mud the girls JK more than my XJ and I can already see it tearing up the poor Jeep, oh well. At least rot-free never-offroaded JKs will be a dime a dozen in 10 years.

Front man in my band, "you know that's not a real jeep, right?"

I'm still waiting for him to enlighten me on just how it's not a real jeep.
