by Ken Brubaker Greg Higgs is at it again! The CEO and founder of Fab Fours has just unveiled his latest creation, Legend 2.Woah (aka Legend 2.0). If you thought Greg’s creation THE LEGEND was over-the-top, Legend 2.Woah will leave you speechless.
We wanted to know more, so we asked Greg to elaborate on Legend 2.Woah. He says, “To be honest, Legend 2.0 was built with a bit of a chip on my shoulder. The original Legend was such a success and got so much attention that of course it was going to have feedback both positive and negative. Being the proud father, I love everything about it; its crazy dimensions, its styling, its scheme, and I knew good and well that it was fully functional and could wheel with the best Jeeps out there. However, due to its obvious expense and the fact that it was getting publicized from shows, it then got the perception of the trailer queen. Well, the team made me commit to not mess it up for at least a year due to its newfound fame, but I am a true rockcrawling enthusiast at my core and wanted the ability to show people that the Legend was both show and go; hence the beginnings of Legend 2.0. So the same robust drivetrain, unbreakable components, low center of gravity and the lockers with proper equipment for wheeling were once again added and this time with a slightly wider track width to allow for some clearance issues learned on Legend. I also opted for a smaller tire that would allow for a deeper ‘stuff’ in articulation. Now as for the styling, I reduced the fender size to provide more visibility and clearance, but I couldn't leave it be... I needed something for the hardcore rockcrawlers to bitch about, hence the Mohawk. You need to have that polar piece that drives the attention and makes your brand memorable. Fab Fours is always pushing to innovate something new and different. Every new idea is not going to be loved by every person, but you remember and that drives eyes to the Fab Fours site which exposes them to a myriad of high-quality innovative truck accessories available for next day delivery for all trucks and Jeeps. So now the real test is to go put this girl on the rocks in Moab and hit it up hard so both running the most difficult challenging trails and flexing with the best of them. This Jeep was made to wheel and we will put her all the way through the paces. Keep tabs on Fab Fours and you can take this journey with us!”
