If your Jeep doesn't look like a camel trophy rig do you even overland bro?
I bet you don’t even own a Skottle. I didn’t think so Bruh. I’ll tell you what it is. A plow disc with a broverlander name. That’s what.

Apparently I'm not a broverlander because I had to google skottle...

Hmmm I wasn’t thinking that, but Freud might have some thoughts on that reaction 🤓
I was just wondering what smart-ass comment you would come up with I thought you could do better honestly.

No more 4XE now gas-loving 2021 Rubicon
I'm going to do this one a little bit differently...


Beautiful scenery, and what's basically a stock two-door...

Overall score: 2/5

I'll be honest, if it was a four-door, it would have been a 1/5. You can up the score on this one by half a point if you trim off those ridiculous outer pieces of the front bumper. Stubby bumpers are always better!! :rock:


Quite a few mods here, surprisingly enough a lot of them under the radar.

To start, it's a two-door soft top in bikini pearl, instantaneously you're already at 2 out of 5.

Looks like the same factory front bumper with those ridiculous extra pieces on the ends. You need to cut those off and give your jeep an OP stubby bumper!

Loving the aftermarket wheels. The Chrome goes great with the rest of the aesthetics of the vehicle. Not sure if they're real beadlocks or simulated, but they look good! The white lettering on the outside, really clean look! I'm not always a fan of white letters on tires but in your case, it looks good! 🔥

You got the bull bar, which doesn't always look good, but in your case it's a clean look. Makes it look a little more beefy and sturdy! At minimum it is in fact a functional addition. Something you can yank on if you have to be towed out.

You got an aftermarket reinforcement bar between your c-pillars, and clearly it's being used to mount aftermarket lights? And then I saw that thing on your c-pillar itself, not really sure what to make of it until I realized they are bikini pearl seat belts all around... :handsinair::party::captain:

Not sure if that's just a cold air intake on the passenger side hood, or if that can be used to mount a snorkel. Regardless it's a nifty little mod all the same.

And last but not least, the cargo basket. I'm not sure if you had to delete your rear seat for this or if you just folded it forward. Also the cargo basket doesn't look to be raised, so I'm not sure if there's a cargo lock box underneath it? 🤔 I'm going to take a guess and say it's just a cargo basket with the rear seats folded forward, and that way you can remove the cargo basket and fold back the factory rear seats, and fit two more people back there, thus why you still have the rear seat belts installed.

Clearly you've done quite a bit with this one.

Overall rating: 4/5



This one is definitely the least impressive. It's a four-door, it's a nice shade of red, but it's also a 4XE, which may be reliable for you for now, but as we all know is in fact the least reliable powertrain in the Jeep Wrangler ever!

It is a Rubicon, so you got that going for you. I'm guessing it's your family travel vehicle. 🤷‍♂️

Overall rating: 0/5

Part of me wants to be kind and give you a one out of five, and honestly if it was any other powertrain other for than 4XE, That's what I'd be giving you, but the 4XE is just such a trash powertrain, it has to be reflective in the scoring. I mean maybe you'll keep it long-term, but I'd love to see anyone with a 4XE Wrangler with 250,000 mi on it who hasn't spent months and months and months at the dealership lot, and 10s of thousands of dollars on part fixes outside of warranty. A lot of the 4XEs out there aren't seeing the bigger picture, a lot of them are still under warranty and they're not too worried because they figure they won't keep their vehicle forever, but the second that thing is outside of warranty, y'all are ****ed!

Hope that's not too harsh, and if it is, that's why you came here! Honest review!! 😜
Not bad. Yup from central Texas. Yup a Mopar lift and not too many mods yet.
What are you like San Antonio or something?

Nice looking area to live!

The chunky front bumper is a little bit obnoxious, but it does look sturdy.

I can't tell if that's Sting-Gray or Anvil. It looks a little too dark to be Earl.

The black wheels and tires are a nice, nothing negative to say about them, but they also don't stand out a ton.

So basically it's a stock Rubicon with a lift and an aftermarket front bumper? I'm guessing because there's so much stock things on there, it's a Mopar lift? My heart is telling me Mopar lift!

Factory rock rails, factory hood, factory everything. I know it's a factory dash, but as dark as the whole Jeep is, that red dash stands out like a sore thumb. And honestly it's not a good looking sore thumb. Maybe get it vinyl coated to color match your exterior paint? It just seems a bit much in an otherwise dark vehicle.

Not a bad looking Jeep, overall pretty basic stuff, nothing special either. (No hate on that, everyone's Jeep is special to them, and I'm not just saying that because I love my fellow Texans... Or am I 🤔)

OVERALL SCORE: 2/5
Not bad assessment. Yup from central Texas. Yup a Mopar lift with Bilstein. Yup - Sting Gray and not too many mods yet.

Post a picture of your Wrangler, and I'll tell you what my thoughts on it are.
Ok, Gregory. Here's my modest fellow, earning his keep.

I expect no preferential treatment here, despite my having gifted to you a postpaid set of Redline Tuning hood struts. 😉

I just want you to know my new signature line is your fault specifically. I do appreciate the inspiration.
