I think that concept car is a few years old, and I'd like to see it on the Rubicon :twisted:

teraflex lift questions

I'd say it's more "Dual Sport" than other Jeeps, with a lean toward street performance. I'm sure it has it's place with the Subaru type vehicle market. Looks nice.

That thing would get eaten up on the Rubicon!

The Jeepster has come a long way.

Check out the video of the old Jeepster: http://www.jeep.com/jeep_life/legends/heritage/popups/jeepster_49/video.html

And there is no way that concept Jeepster would make through the Rubicon.

I had one of these when I was 15. I sold it to buy my '7. Course I wish I had it back now. They only made it for 4 years, and I had one of a few hundred with a 6cyl. There was a nice one on ebay a couple days ago that went for 17K....
