hey armycop, i bet you had no idea you would be the author of such a popular thread did you? *L*
If you really want to make people happy, maybe you should do a nationwide tour and affix your signature (in the form of a hood mounted "Rubicon" sticker) to all the jeeps you pass: X's, Rubicon's (then they'll have two!), Cherokees, Grand Cherokees, Wagoneer's Patriots, Libertys, etc. then everyone will have one and the whine fest will be universal?
I happen to like the stance of your Jeep. Your tire choice makes sense for your predicament, if i was doing major road miles i wouldnt even be considering MT's myself.
Your sticker choice is just that, your choice - get over it people.
Have you had a chance to go shake it around yet & see if there is any rubbing?

Plus the A/T Revos did pretty well so far.

Opinions are like a...., um, mouths - everybody has one, and they all stink. I don't see how this is such a hot-button topic, really.
I bought a "fancy" package for my Jeep - I don't consider myself any better than people that bought an X, or any lesser than people that bought a Rubicon... so why does this turn into a "class distinction" argument? I'll say it again: Wranglers are not some uppity status symbol.
The way tempers have been flaring and people have been behaving, you'd think that Armycop bought a Mercedes E350, drove it to a country club, drove it up onto the 18th hole, and badged it an E55 AMG in front of everyone... the yuppies may care about that status crap, but aren't we above that nonsense here?

P.S. Anyone remember the "Transformers" from the 80's? A PERFECT label for this situation would be to call his Jeep a "Decepticon"!
True will just call it a "Decepticon"! and leave it at that I'm done
