Hey guys, need some advice here. A buddy of mine has a 2005 rubi unlimited that he wants to sell me for 15,000. It is in good condition with low kms. Good deal?
-
My dad bought an 05 unlimited rubi a couple years ago for about $23K I think and that was a good deal at the time because regular rubis were going for that price. I would take a look at the autotrader and see what they are listed for.

Well the fargin binder has a bunch in the Edmonton area at dealers from 19,000 to 24,0000. So I guess at 15,000 i should be OK. Do these ride better than the stock tj? I have not ridden in it yet and I am trying to ease the wife's concerns about the ride......

The fact its a Rubi doesn't change the ride quality... the fact its unlimited will. Longer wheelbase might smooth things out a bit... but its still a jeep

The ride is 100 X better in my dad's unlimited, even though it is lifted, than my YJ, and I think it is better that his '00 XJ as well. As fug mentioned, the big difference is in the wheelbase
-
better than an XJ? I thought that was only possible in a WJ!!?
-
better than an XJ?
ummm .. what isn't ::) ;D :P

Anything rides smoother than a leaf sprung YJ!

A good looooong test drive.
At this point, when I'm ready to buy, it will be nothing less than a 2005-2006 Unlimited Rubi with auto tranny
