MJ w/ 2 TJs

Rory,
I have had my Rubicon since November of 2002 and am completely happy with
it. Is it worth the $$? For me, yes, it was. The extras (d44's, lockers,
ect) for me were something I probably wouldn't have done with a Sport or X
version. If I had to do it all over again, I will still buy the Rubicon.

I have owned several Jeeps including a '98 TJ sport, YJ and currently own an
'86 CJ. As far as best year and style, that really depends on what you plan
to do I guess. IMHO, i would go with a TJ, 98 or newer. I would stay away
from the 4 cylinder if your doing a lot of highway driving. The TJ has the
quad coil suspension for a great ride and there are plenty of after market
goodies as well. I like th 98 because, well, I had one, plus they added a
defeat for the clutch/ignition in the fuse box, which i don't think was
there in the 97. This is so you can rock crawl while using your ignition
to stop and start you. Hope this helps. GOOD LUCK!!

looking for another Jeep and was wondering if the Rubicon was realy worth
