Anyone jump from a TRD Pro to a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited with 3.6L V6

The Pro is a great vehicle but I have come to realize it just is not as capable in stock trim as a Rubicon Unlimited. Also it appears that to go to a 285 tire (33”) surgery in the form of a body chop is necessary to clear without rubbing. Then you have a vehicle that still only has a 3.73 axle and will still have worse clearances (approach, departure, break over) than a stock Rubicon Unlimited. So I am wondering if anyone has moved to the Rubicon and what they think? Just seems crazy to cut a $50K truck then you still end up with a vehicle less capable than Rubicon. I don’t want to be speaking heresy but would appreciate any opinions. Thank you.

I had 4 JK's. 2 with transmission problems. 1 with 4 water pumps. And one with death wobble. All before 20K miles. After experiencing death wobble I have no desire to get another Jeep.
