Re: New Jeep Options
you know.. I would have to say NO.. now that I have it in my rubi.. they
put too much of the low to midrange through the woofer speaker and it sounds
muddy... all the time...it booms a lot.. I turn the bass ALL the way down
and it still booms my fav radio station..(rock) there is no option to
balance any of this out other than two sliders for bass and treble. I will
eventually tear mine out and replace it with a "good" setup from kraco or
something.. I would think even a rock, two sticks and some rattling tin foil
would sound better. THIS is the only thing I have to complain about in my
rubi.. I bought it gently used at 3500 miles, so the speaker system was
already in it. Otherwise, this is the most fun I have every had in any
vehicle..

Re: New Jeep Options
Cruse control comes in handy on those looooong trips.
I'm sorry I didn't get one when I got my TJ so I bought the
kit & talk about a PIA to install...........

Re: New Jeep Options
I ordered my past two TJs without the Cruise. I just never use it. (Must
be a control issue.) BTW, save some $$ for the aftermarket. :)
