    I sensed that. Like that year I got my mom a catchers mitt for Mother’s Day. It went great with the chest protector I got her the year before.

    What that rig costs you is going to be a lot different than what you pay. She doesn’t need modified Rubicon- She needs a safe dependable sport or X. And if she has a boyfriend he needs a good smack before he looks at the keys even once.

    The only time a Rubicon turns different is when the lockers are engaged. Otherwise there is absolutely no difference.

    Good posts- check carefully for frame rust - the price is good if it is not badly rusted- . Any of these will typically need some things done- Fluid, brakes, belts, hoses etc.-Usually one in that price range end up spending two or $3000 to get everything buttoned up. As far as it being good...

    No - a Rubicon came with 31 inch tires and those gears- But notice what I’m saying- I have a friend who’s got a rig and that is the set up and he has the same transmission and it performs every bit as good as mine does - Mine has bigger tires and is geared for them but did not run as good as...

    Thanks Blaine- This is a key post- I was concerned when this started that the results would get magnified because I know the desire for better 4.0 performance is tremendous- If you guys look at my earlier posts I tried to make it very clear that this is not going to make the vehicle a...

    Thanks man- you are a real car guy I can tell. Honest assessment. The C4-5 were still super exciting and ahead of their predecessors. All good stuff. Miss my 83 CJ-7, maybe what I miss is being 20 the most.

    Oh I know the argument just like I prefer round headlights over square- Thankfully that got solved in 97. Have you driven a C6? Especially back to back with prior years? I just was not a fan of the squeaks and harshness of the 80s but they got gorgeous before that.

    - don’t be too quick to get disheartened until you get a good diagnosis- can be a loose plug, etc- Be thorough- Start with checking your oil and you want to drain the oil and look for shavings, etc.

I’m not a Corvette guy so to speak....But I’m glad I’ve had the opportunity to have one and I would tell anybody if you’re not wanting to spend a lot of money try to at least get into a C6 or...
