If everyone is getting there money's worth then they're both good values and neither is a "far, far better value" than the other.
They're not the same price and they each have different features and designs.
There's no reason to rank the value of a Rough Rider against the Wrangler because it's like comparing apples to oranges.
If someone wants an affordable model with a birdshead grip, a longer barrel or adjustable sights then that's what they will buy, and it will be a good value.
I don't see a Wrangler being made with a 9 inch barrel.
I hope that you enjoy yours as much as I have enjoyed mine.
