Not pretending. This is absolutely a requisite for my deal. I'm not living with the KM2s (I mean, c'mon, they're not even the 3s) until they wear out. Credit (at least a healthy portion) on the swap or no deal.
It was the same with the JK, the Rubi and Willy’s got the KM’s while the km2 was out, now that the 3 is out they put the 2’s on.

Funny with the JL that they switched the types of tires. JK era Rubis had the MT and Moab received a Goodyear A/T. Must’ve realized that majority of rubicon owners stay on pavement so they put the A/T on them and the Moab got the MT :CWL:

But in all seriousness, anyone that is not a combat veteran, is not a man at all. Just like any Jeep that's not a Rubicon, is not a real Jeep, so if you're not a combat vet, but you drive a rubicon, you're basically a tranny twink.

2019 JLU Rubi
Wow I had no idea the MOAB got such hate on the Jeep forums.

Here's my story on why I almost bought a MOAB and quickly change to a Rubicon.. I have never owned a Jeep Wrangler before, but my wife and I always rented a (JK) Rubicon when we vacation in AZ over the past 6-7 years and we always go rock crawling with them. So of course I wanted a Rubi. Have never really been into knowing the models to be honest, just liked to drive them.

When the JL came out and I started reading reviews of how the JL's are better now as daily drivers, we decided take the plunge. Not knowing much about the current JL models, a trip to the dealers and seeing the JL's in person made me believe that the MOAB was a special edition Rubicon when I looked at it.. kind of like the "Hard Rock" editions we looked at back in 2014 or so. (Again, we didn't dive into the special editions because we never got serious about buying back then, just considered one).

Of course after really getting serious about a JL and doing my research, it was apparent that the MOAB was not what it appeared to be from a casual buyer standpoint (I thought it was a special edition Rubi).

So we chose the Rubicon with no regrets. To be quite honest, I just don't like the color matching tops either, so that would have been wasted money for me also.

See, you can relate! That is why I posted this thread initially....then it turned into a MOAB form of "Your Momma" jokes....which has been all in good fun.

Jeep Rubicon
Does anyone know how to get the stickers off my Rubicon hood? I want to replace them with Moab stickers because it should have been called the Moab to start with because it's the most off-roadest Wrangler.
Since you didn’t make the sticker you’ll note it’s incredibly durable. :CWL:
