Crazy how a lot of people on the American sites say the sport is if you only do 'mild' off-roading. I spent 14 years taking my un locked IFS hilux to many places it shouldn't have gone according to them!
I would have been happy with a Sahara/Renegade, given my 14 years of TJ fun. But luckily found a clean Rubicon for a similar price via private sale - still under warranty. So went with it instead.
