I know this is stupid to be upset over, but I did not ask for my carpet mats to not be in the jeep because I ordered a set of weather mats, that seems really strange......I want my weather mats for when I am up in the snow and when I am not, I want my carpet mats, other car companies give you both, I am going to try to fight for both, not sure how, but I will!
It seems like when you choose the option, they don't include carpet. I guess.... every upgrade works that way kinda.. I would like the carpets too if for no other reason to later sell them so I can make my payment! Lol

I got Mopar mat info! Mopar Mat Info!
So we've had snow here in Maryland, so in and out with the boots and what happens..... my optional Mopar Mats filled up with water. I've kinda not really payed attention, but did noticed that every time I seem to look down at the mats (front) the round studs that come up from the floor are not locked in and the mat is not sitting properly. Then I noticed the carpet was wet. Where did all the water go you ask? Into the carpet! The studs aren't locking in and the mat isn't fitting right, because the drain hole on the mats pertrudes down and is supposed to fit in the drain hole. So I just got home popped drivers side up and sure enough the carpet is 90% cut out (the same exact size as the drain hole in the floor of the JL). They leave just a tiny piece of fabric on the carpet plug(in case you don't want to use that style of mat, I guess) I neatly cut each side out, pulled the carpet plug out and then pulled the drain hole plug out of the Jeeps floor. Then the mat will seat perfectly, with the mat drain hole seating down into the drain hole in the Jeeps floor. Thennnn the mat seats properly in the floor and the locking the studs snap in and stay secure. Interesting. I'll give it a whirl. I guess it does beat having to lift a mat full of fluid out of the floor without spilling it everywhere. We shall see....btw I put in 4 wheel today hit a couple light trails at an undisclosed location. (at work on lunch break...)

A little more on the ride after a full day, the Rubi is a bit stiffer than the JL Sahara. Buts it really good. I'm assuming that the shocks are the reason because having had these tires before, they did not adversely affect my JLU ride. And it does sit a bit higher, this too can affect things, but I like it. And how quiet it is over bumps is really the best thing, no rattling or 2 seconds of rebounding. It recovers from bumps firm and fast (relatively speaking). You still know you are in a Jeep, but a really good one.
How does the manual shift feel?

Your at 2 different price categories between the Sport S and Rubicon which explains why they are equipped different. More people go for lower priced Sport which is reflected in it being the best seller.
