Ok! Go ahead and say "I Told you so"

I miss my Sportage, and am regretting selling her, the Jeep is a nice rig, but not half as much fun as the Sporty was, and the jeep can't fit into all those nice little trails and lets not talk about how the sporty would win hands down in the mud!

Did I mention I miss my Sportage?

Alright here are some shots, the only thing I've done so far is put on 34's, added some driving lights and made a grill guard, you will need one of these for sure as the openings in the grill are big enough to fit a baseball thru, nothing protecting the rad period!

And don't plan on doing any shopping in the Rubi, to say there is limited cargo space would be the under statement of the decade.

The wife will make me get the 4 door---Prolly a good thing now. NICE PICS.

I would change the front bumper, tear that plastic crap off the front underside, Body and suspension lift, Change the rims, dual exhaust etc.....

V-6 right?

I know, I know........The Rubi is already EXPENSIVEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/oink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />

Hmmmmmmmmmm! Sometimes computer make me want to grab a hammer and.... Well you know the rest! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" />

The 4 door would be the way to go, I'd also ditch the 6 speaker factory system as the sub takes up about 1/4 of your cargo space in the back. don't bother with the factory hardtop storage unit they will try to sell you it's a POS.

There are a ton of aftermarket parts for these things, but be carefull 90% of them are purely cosmetic and not designed for the trail.
