Like toodeep said.. There are more old rubicons with no problems then there are with problems.. The newer ones are a little better but i believe its all in the maintenance. Make sure you test ride it for a minimum of 15 minutes because it takes awhile to warm all that oil to get it to operating temps. Like mentioned above ppl come to the site when they have problems thats why you see it a lot.. My 2006 Rubicon has been flawless.. tires, brakes, upper control arm bushings... just maintenance stuff
