We have been ripping on each other for 64 pages now. It's all in good fun.
This should be in the humor forum. Although it’s not been entirely worthless. I didn’t realize the MOAB had full time 4WD and some other neat features. I’d probably still have gone with the Rubicon because of the lockers and sway bar disconnect. Those are features that would be difficult to add later.

Instead of adding Rubicon features to a Sahara they should’ve reversed it. I really wanted a Rubicon but the Selec-Trac and LSD/ASD were important for my terrain, so I went with a Sahara. A MOAB with Rubicon guts and Sahara enhancements would be perfect for those willing to spend.

I’m sure we’re both already spending plenty

Some of the reply’s were downright rude and juvenile. I don’t see this on other types of forums I belong to. At 75 years old, USMC veteran, I guess I don’t like to deal with petty BS. Their is some great information to be obtained on this site could be better without BS. Just my opinion and yes everyone has one.
We’re just having a little fun, at the end of the day, 99 percent of us don’t really give a shit what someone buys. I suggest stop reading this thread. And thanks for your service :).

This is nothing. Have you ever belonged to a Toyota forum like TacomaWorld or the T4Runner forum? Those Toyota fanboys are flat out ruthless. Most of these posts here are in jest and good humor. The Jeep community really is friendly.

I agree... I started this post because I really didn't get it at first. Those who took the time to provide their thought process made a lot of sense. Then came out the silly string insults and it was game on! lol Really appreciate the camaraderie I have felt as a result. Never took any of the insults personally, not felt others did either.

Some took it seriously. I’d assume they are former Toyota fanboys/girls

It’s required that Rubi and non- Rubi owners jokingly rip on each other. I think it’s actually written down somewhere.

It's an Easter Egg written in code on the side of the Rubicon shock absorbers...OH NO! Wait, the Moab has the same shocks! Now they get the Easter Egg, too!

I saw it in the mens bathroom of a truck stop.

At 75 calling someone juvenile loses its meaning. Lol ...and what other fora are you on? Are you sure your grandkids didn’t just open up a word doc on your computer and name it forum? :CWL:

All in fun, Al. Hoorah

:captain: I apologize sir, my posts in this thread (at least most of them) were just for fun, you're completely right that this thread is full of petty BS - go Jeep and OORAH! :flag:

The Toyota pages are just the opposite of these. The MOAB owners are not bashing the Rubicon's. I quit looking at the Toyota pages. It's a page for the TRD Pro and everyone with a jacked SR5 gets on there and talks about what a waste of money it is to buy a PRO
