Lets be serious - nobody (at least nobody in their right mind) is buying 
the Liberty to run the Rubicon. Its a road mobile with the capacity to 
handle mud, snow and ice. I bought one because I live on the farm, and need 
4wd occasionally to get through muddy fields or to the duck blind. The rest 
of teh time, I want a comfortable ride to take my woife out to dinner in.

If I wanted to run the Rubicon, I'd buy a serious off-road mobile like an 
old CJ5 or my old 74 Bronco. But these aren't the vehicles I want for the 
daily commute or even to run to the store for parts.
