TBH I didn't know there was a rugged version. There definitely wasn't 6 years ago when we got ours.
It seems it would be pretty hard to make this offroad capable. You could mod to give some more overall clearance I suppose, but there's not much you can do about things like the ridiculous departure angle. And while the build quality is excellent, I'd be worried that any meaningful off roading could wreak havoc on the elaborate mechanism for raising and lowering the roof. I have visions of something getting out of alignment or torquing funny, and blowing out a whole lot of tempered glass!
My bad the more rugged model is the fixed roof one.
