On that scale... I would be a 3.5. I have LSD in the back, but no lockers up front, so I'm out for a 4.

0.5 so far.... but does snowy roads count as off-roading? Damn, living in the city sucks! I can't wait to boost that up to ATLEAST 2.5 when we go the the cottage with the jeep for the first time.

I'd say my unlimited is rated a 4 or maybe 4.5 It is limited more by the driver, Me, than mechanical.

Was a 4.0 in my XJ. Should be a 3.5-4 when my JK arrives. Back to a 4 after the winch and lift are on.

I’ve run a couple 3.0’s with my stock suspension. I put a hole in my Evap Canister on the last one. No body damage yet, but a number of scars on my stock skid plates (which is why they’re there). I need a lift to make a 3.5 without really trashing something. At this point I’m not interested in body damage so 4.0+ will be out of the picture for me.

Between a 3 & 3.5. Mostly limited to driver experience and lack of lift. Should be able to take care of the lift issue very soon, and then I can continue to work on the experience part, or atleast start getting a return on my winch investment

Well with RubyDoo as she is set-up right now i would feel almost saying a solid 4.0.

After my long wish list then maybe 4.5 to possibly a 5.0.
