Offroad Testing our Brand New 2018 Jeep Wrangler JLU Rubicon

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 มี.ค. 2018
  • So we purchased a brand new, 2018 JLU Rubicon exactly one week ago. Officially name "The Step Child", we slapped 35" Cooper STT Pro tires and 1.5" wheel spacers on her but left her otherwise completely stock.
    We then immediately took her out to Old Chinaman Gulch in Colorado and tested her on every obstacle we came across.
    When all was said and done - we had a smorgasbord of scratches and gouges on the belly pans and sliders (that's what they're there for) and zero actual body damage. The only thing that stopped the vehicle at any point was clearance (which can be easily fixed with 37s and a lift), otherwise it climbed just about anything you put it up against.
    All in all, we were extremely impressed with the offroad capabilities of the vehicle. Ultimately this thing is a beast right out of the box - 10/10 I would recommend to anyone looking for a vehicle that's comfortable as hell on the road and can handle itself with flying colors offroad.

    The girl knows how to navigate through

    The driver is awesome for keeping the
    vehicle from flipping.
    Congratulations on your new Jeep and
    conquering the hardest off-road course
    out there.

    Excellent driving and spotting skills. We did this in open diffs, 35’s on a 2 door. Didnt make it over the obvious spot where you high centered and made it. The spot you high centered and got stuck... same issue. Nice jeep!

    The skill level that you guys have off roading is down right impressive. This is no easy feat to crawl like this with even a stock rubi.. it’s a beautiful Jeep By the way.. I just wouldn’t have the confidence to do half of what you two did. And I say “you two” because the cutie doing the filming was an excellent spotter, wish she could teach some of my boys how to spot someone and make proper call outs. Haha great work on the trail and on the video I enjoyed it
