"We are thrilled to present our fans with the opportunity to win a Southern Miss Golden Eagle Jeep Wrangler," said Director of Athletics Jeremy McClain. "This one-of-a-kind vehicle takes design cues from the CJ Jeeps of the 1970's while incorporating the historical brand of Southern Miss. Collaborating with Rubitrux allows us to creatively raise funds for our student-athletes while offering Golden Eagles fans the chance to drive home an amazing new vehicle."
"We are excited to show Southern Miss fans our take on a Golden Eagle 2024 JL," said Van Learning of RubiTrux. "This Jeep was built with on-road comfort and off-road us in mind. Our world class team at RubiTrux is thrilled to see their hard work displayed at Southern Miss football games and for a lucky winner to take it home. I can't wait to hand over the keys and show them around their RubiTrux-built Jeep!"
The Golden Eagle Jeep Rubicon comes complete with top-of-the-line upgrades that include Sky One-Touch Power Top, heated front seats and steering wheel, 12.3-inch touch screen display power adjust 8-way driver and passenger seat. RubiTrux has equipped this vehicle with a custom Verona leather interior, fog lights, steam bumper, and 20-inch rims inside of 37-inch tires, designed for rugged off-road and comfortable on-road use.
The 2024 Jeep Wrangler was purchased by Southern Miss from Woolwine Crown Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram in Collins, Miss.
