I'd have been tempted with a diesel, 6" lift, and 37's, would make for a pretty good trail vehicle, that you could still use daily. I'll definitely be interested at looking at the Unlimted Rubi. I think it will be very popular, they could have down a few things better, but I think Jeep did a pretty good job. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

If you lifted an H3 and added a front locker and 37" tires, how would they compare in your mind to the lifted rubicon of which you speak?

H3 has a 4 ft tighter turning circle. I assume the approach, departure, and breakover angles on such a lifted/big-shoed H3 would be pretty good. It seems like the only real advantage would be the solid front axle on the Rubi and its say disconnects?
