Hey that looks familiar.

C'mon folks.

Why the need to copy a Jeep marketing ploy? Are you guys really that insecure about the capabilities of the Xterra?

My Xterra is not a Jeep, therefore, it is not Trail Rated. Being Trail Rated is marketing propaganda spewed by DaimlerChrysler in the hopes that offroad newbies will buy into it. The term Trail Rated means nothing in the real world except that Jeep came up with a cool and inticing marketing campaign. After all, you guys bought it, hook, line and sinker.

The Xterra can do 90% of what a Jeep can do. If you don't believe me then ask Hustler from UXOC about Mickey's Hot Tub and Potato Salad Hill (two major obstacles that hardcore Jeepers have claimed an Xterra could never complete).

I like my Xterra the way it is. It is a valuable onroad vehicle that can get me from point a to b in relative comfort and a very capable offroad vehicle that can hang with Jeeps 90% of the time. And for that other 10% of the time, I'm not really interested in beating the shit out of my truck.

My friend bought a hooked up Jeep Renegade last year.
Even *HE* hates the trail-rated commercials because it came out after he got his jeep.
So he's saying, WTF? I spent all this money and just cause my jeep dont have the logo it aint a real jeep? F*** that!

DueNorth, that's a hoot. I normally think that sort of stuff is corny, but I like that one.

I bid for one! I like'm!

Hey, lots of people think the Xterra is sexy. Glad you like them.

Now I am trying to think of something for those 4x2s. Are they even X-Rated? Maybe they are R-Rated. :p

For the people who used the Buy It Now option, you should be getting your decals shortly.

Thank you.

Don't bother.

Having a 4x2 is kind of like having only one ball. Sure, it still does what you want it to, and it's still fun to play with, but you don't really want to point out to other people that you only have one ball.

Not true. Taken from the FAQ at Rubicon Owners Forum:

Many people are complaining that the Rubicon did not come with a real Dana 44. Put your mind at ease, it is a real Dana 44.

The Dana 44 refers to the housing, differential case and axle. What many people are complaining about is they feel that the outer axles, steering u-joints and bearings are not Dana 44. Well they are, since 1996 Jeep upgraded the Dana 30 outers to the equivilent to Dana 44's. So at this point both the D30 and D44 front axles used by Jeep are the same design as far as the outer portions go.

You do have a stronger differential with the D44.

No the Dana 44 is not the same as what Ford may use or the same as what Jeep may have used on the old Wagoneers, but it is still a Dana 44.

-----------------------

I've seen a few Rubi owners break axles online, but it's not a big problem. If you look on ROF you'll see maybe 3 or 4 people total. I have an '02 Xterra SE/SC and an '04 Rubicon.

Due North,

Will you be at Calico this weekend? If so, can you bring me a sticker and I can pay you then??? Let me know.

Thanks,
Danna

Damnit!! I have one on my truck and like them so much, I bid on two more.....I was outbid, and I'd bet money that this thread is why!

Angelwolf, I plan on being there Friday night. See you there.

Glad you like them Hawk.

Lol, I thought the "trail rated" commercials were fishy too.

One question...are they "street rated?"

So are you guys offering the X-rated stickers or not?

Since im a 2 wheeler I naturally like this one the best. Can someone make this so it is white and i can print it on black sticker paper.Im not a pro-photo editor.

I just finished another batch.

Although it is computer cut, it is hand weeded (removing the excess vinyl) and it takes some time to do it right.

Thank you.

Ordered... thanx.

I bought one when he had them up last week. Very high quality and a very low price.

Just ordered one.Can't wait to get it.

I think Sandman has the right retort!!!

Please make some more because I would like to have one!

ME TOO

lol what a bunch of bitter tools

For those who wanted one, here's the link to the latest batch: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2479866414&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT

All the decals should have all been shipped out last week. If anyone didn't receive theirs by Tuesday, please contact me.

From the feedbacks, it looks like a lot of you like them. Thanks you all for your support.

Mine looks good on the X. I'll try to post a picture, but the rest of this week is very hectic for me - so don't hold your breath.
