I decided in late 2017 that my 2000 Sport wasn't quite what I wanted anymore. While it was a great vehicle and I made many memories with it, the manual transmission and Dana 35 rear with 3.73 gears weren't ideal. I wanted an automatic transmission and lockers, so I began looking for a '03-'04 Rubicon. I found a deal on a 2004 Rubicon locally on Craigslist In December 2017 and couldn't pass it up. It had been in Arizona since the beginning and was pretty clean for 126,000 miles.
