From Rubicon to GX in Portland

[pdxchuck]

Hello all - Chuck here in Portland, OR. I'm selling my off-road equipped Rubicon Hard Rock and have just purchased the GX. Traded a Model X Tesla for it... the idea was to find one vehicle that would serve both purposes of the Jeep and the Tesla. Very happy after a couple of weeks so far. The threads are very helpful... I'll be putting my Autohome Airtop rooftop tent on the factory rack, and am curious how that will work out. I agree with some of you that the factory rack creates a lot of wind noise. I'm also into motorcycles and look forward to trailering some of them around the PNW with the new rig.

I agree, very nice. I'm biased though, with the same color scheme.

Hello from PDX as well that was my next choice for color but decided to stick with Caviar.

I'm in the same boat.... sold my modified Rubicon for the OT+. Very good decision.

For the rack wind noise, try peeling off the rubber lip underneath the front bar. It helps a lot.
