If you plan on doing suspension mods, some of the stuff that comes with the Offroad end up being replaced anyway. The only issue is the e locker in the rear.

I have a 2005 Offroad and have replaced most of the features that came with it. I still love the locker though. grin


the locker and the transmission are the two biggies for me. after researching the Off Road standard equipment, I found better aftermarket alternatives, anyway.

however, I wasn't able to find a way to replace the locker aftermarket.

also, I'm really wanting a manual transmission and most of the X's here in Denver are automatics. From my research, it's not trivial to convert an auto X to a manual X, like it is with other makes/models.
