It's allright considering it will cost like $40,000.

40 g's... I'll take it!!!! J/K. I might pay $40,000 for something like that. As long as the company that built it can offer some kind of warranty it's worth it. The paint color alone is worth that, lol.

There are pictures of it in the SEMA thread.  It's ok but I wouldn't buy one.  $40k?  Imagine what you could do to a CJ/YJ/TJ/XJ for that kind of money.  You could buy a YJ or TJ and install some D60's along with an atlas 4 with a NV4500 and have plenty of money left for a custom or high-end lift.

I'd imagine if you took it offroad the warranty would be void on any claim.

my jeep with all those mods would run like $27,000 including motor swap and all. About the price of a new rubicon back then. i just started small because I had little money. I regret not getting the six cylinder, but it was $19,000 compared to $15,000.

Well for $29,125 I could have an Unlimited Rubicon and then spend the remaining  $10,875 modifying my TJ.:twisted: This actually sounds like a better idea than purchasing the Rubicon King.

Why did they bring the Unlimited Rubicon with the CRD engine???  They would have completely knocked one out of the park with the Rubicon King powered by the CRD and just left the unlimited at home.  Would have saved some space on the trailer and been far more impressive.

Don't get me wrong, the RK (that's what I'm going to call it) looks good, but it's basically a bolt on lift, winch, tires and body armor.  I can't see why they feel the need to publicize the radio delete option???  Seems fruitless to me.
