Must be nice to have rational thought. Something of which I have no knowledge. :)
Just different stages of life, OB! :like:

Also, having that much non-dischargable debt alters your priorities a bit. :asshat:

For that kind of money, I'd opt for the Rubi personally. Jeep threw a wrench into my plans by not offering a 2 door Sahara for the JL. That had been my plan for the longest time.

Now, my plan is to (gradually) add Rubicon-esque bits to Gabrielle as I am able. But first, I think I'm going to work on my student debt - the monthly payment on that is more than my lease! :piggybank::asshat::movember:
I'd say its for a different purpose than the Rubicon. A good mud runner/bad weather Jeep rather than a dedicated rock crawler. The Limited slip and Select-trac lean in that direction I would say. By all means, if you've got rocks to crawl over get a Rubi, they are fun, just be ready to take a plunge in mileage. :)

To be honest, I think I may have had some rational thought the other day. I was thinking that if all this Medicaid stuff comes crashing down around me due to unforeseen reasons, like they decide that I have one too many vehicles. I could see putting Veronica up for sale if I had to. Not that I want to, but I could do it if pressed. At least Wrikki is an all-season ride.

I hope that qualifies as some 'grown up' thought. :)

Oh please don't pee on my Rubi choice! :)

I think that's pretty darn close.

Careful, don't want to grow up too fast! :devil:

No worries. My window sticker says 46,610, but really it was 46,110 cuz I was protected from the $500 increase.

Sticker on the MOAB I was looking at is $53,985 and dealer discounted to $49,055.

True, the 4 Door Rubicon I test drove matched the MOAB in price, minus the Steel Bumper Group missing on the Rubi...

Went to pick up one of the Company trucks at my dealer... swung by and checked out the MOAB they had. I might need to get a hold of those tires when my current ones wear out, lol.
