I was just curious to see if anyone here does any offroading. Im about to order a 2012 Rubicon unlimited and Im looking forward to testing it's limits.

I go all the time! The rubicon can do some pretty bad a$$ stuff
I've been a few times in a couple of my old trucks ('89 Hardbody & '97 4Runner). I'm about to buy another 3rd-gen 4Runner and would love to take it up this Spring. I actually went with the Trail Damage Jeep Club, up to Slaughterhouse Gulch. You should check out their webpage and see what they got planned for this year. Slaughterhouse was just easy enough for a stock 4R, even street tires. Only one Jeep had a problem on the first steep incline, but I think it was her lack of experience mostly.
I got big plans for my next 4R, I'm as excited about that as you probably are for the new Rubicon. Cut's right, that thing is already built to have a lot of fun up there, congrats!

I'm down have a couple 4x4s all ruff up. The new jeep is awsome. I have had a few wranglers but ran from jeep when the v6 was put in them, but I have to say the new pentastar is damn good motor Actualy thinking of one my self
Sweet guys, yeah we'll have to plan to go up this summer. Alot of my buddy's have jeeps and other things and soon I will too. Yeah the rubicon is siick. I waS reading on some jeep forums on some of the inclines and trail ratings that even stock rubi's are doing. So I'm stoked! I'm not a noob to offroading, I used to have a 89 tracker, not fully built but that doesnt mean it couldnt climb or somewhat crawl. What do you have Cut?
The PentaStar has sick power!

Pentastar is one of the best motors Chrysler has ever designed
Key words "the designed"
Man, you guys are the only ones I've ever met who liked that motor...
Who doesn't??? It's already been proven reliable, easy to add power to, powerful enough in stock form to make a lot happy, etc.
I'm pretty sure you're thinking of the old 2.7/3.5. 3.5 wasn't bad, but the 2.7 sludged up if you didn't keep up on maintenance pretty well.

Trail Damage is a great site. Last year we put together a couple threads here on the forum. Tons of great places to go wheelin

I was blown away with the pentastar. It has no "exhaust mainifolds"
Not sure how you mean? Factory headers?
Have owned: '01 Volusia

The headers are cast into the heads
Ahhh, yeah, the V6 that's been in the JK's was the one I'd been hearing bad things about. Good to hear it's been remedied.

My jeep has changed a bit since these pics were taken...added some flat 6" rear flares and tube fenders...new tires will be going on soon as well (since there is now way too much wheel well lol), just need to come up with some cash for them...need to get a dyno tune and suspension tune for the bike first
