Well Hello Everyone,

I'm looking at the NEW Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon.

But have Questions:

Anyone own one? How does it do off road compared to 2 door? what have you all heard about them? Can I go play at MOAB with it?

I Live in Az so I very much enjoy playing in the desert My youngest is much bigger now and I feel better about him in a Jeep and will most likely look at doing a belt upgrade. How about that any one taking a tween on trips?

so I just need some good advice between the 2door or 4 door also looking at a soft-top I don't really want to deal with a hard.

Any and all advice welcome

aside from more interior room, one of the advatages of the four door is the wheel base. but it's turning radius suffers a litle when compared to a 2dr

Are the new wrangler's independant or straight axle front end? Also they've done away with the 4.0 six and went with a smaller 3. something v-6, right?
