Anybody that lives where there is snow or mud benefits from the ability to lock the diffs. Sure an IFS rig can be fully locked but it will never be as reliable as having two stick axles, especially when you start modding a vehicle. 99% of my use won’t require the articulation of a SFA, but I want the durability and traction to take me down a frozen rutted hill in the morning to chase elk and back up through the mud in the afternoon. Having a rig that I can vacation to Moab or the Rubicon is just icing on the cake for me.The “enthusiasts” include over landing fans and not just “extreme” rock crawlers.
Serious question that I know no one will truly be able to answer. What % of rubicon owners actually live within a reasonable (1 hour or less) distance from a trail that requires a Rubicon?
