Where else are you gonna find a 4:10 geared, 4:1 crawler box, front and rear push button lockers, Dana 44 rear, Dana 44 front (if you put in Superior chromolly axleshafts), stock 31x10.50 MTR's, and a 7 YEAR WARRANTY??????
All for about 23g'sUSD new??????
i would not say a brand new rubicon is not "out of the box" heavy duty.

As for trail rated badge??? it can only help with any warranty issues.
