2003 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon

Hey all,

Again, these two vehicles are somewhat different. However, i think the Rubicon serves well as an alternative vehicle to consider for the off-roading community.

Price runs around $23,000 to $30,000.

Hey all,

Who says the Wranglers are not popular? According to CNN, it is the #2 vehicle most stolen...relatively speaking...Acura Integra is #1.
