Saw a Tomb Raider Rubi at Big Bear this weekend..
 

Saw my first Tomb Raider Rubicon this weekend. It was so new it still
doesn't have a license plate. We were weighing up the Rock garden at the
beginning of Holcomb Creek trail when a few jeeps came rumbling up. The TR
Rubi did well. Those special (looked like bushwacker) flares got ripped up
on the rocks but she made it through without any sheet metal damage. I
really liked the stickers they all had on the backs of the jeeps, "Official
Land Rover Recovery Team". Anyone know where to get one?
It was my first run on this trail, what a kick! We had a blast.

Heh! Yeah, even have a LR dealership within a few miles, but they won't
import the darn D90. Air bags, schmare bags.

The TR2 version has quite a bit more bling than the TR Limited Edition.

OK, can anyone get the clicky things on Croft's body to work?
