Default Half doors or no doors in the summer?

Hey guys so in the summer I'm debating running half doors or no doors. Which one do y'all prefer?

No doors whenever possible.

No doors are nice. But when I run tube doors with the cargo net, it looks military.

I have run for years with no doors. At the end of the Summer, I acquired a set of 1/2 doors. I prefer the 1/2 door - a bit quieter, the rear carpets do not float and a place to rest my arm.

Now with half doors I almost never run without them. It keeps stuff inside better and is almost as nice as no doors. When I had full doors I took them off more often because I hated the small window opening.

I just traded jeeps to get 1/2 doors. You can put the top half of the doors in the back of the jeep and put them back on if it rains, can't to that with full doors removed

I've done it both ways and tube doors with my JK. Lets just say I'll never buy a jeep without half doors! But not for everybody - I'm lucky to follow the weather so year around wheeling is possible!
