Actually, they look exactly the same and you can only really tell that they aren't 4WD when you look under the front and see no differential :eek: The really sad part of it all is that they are actually selling in my neck of the woods

Power windows=Don't care

Keyless enrty=would be nice
That's funny, I decided to get my power package specifically so that I could open and close the rear windows without having to stop the Jeep, climb out, open the back doors and crank away. The power locks are nice too

On the 4 door,I see why you ordered that..I was thinking in terms of the 2 door only,as that is what I will be getting when they arrive...

So you guys have never had a wife or girlfriend who wanted in the jeep in the rain in winter when you didn't want to run over there and insert the key to open the door for her? Or ever had anything in your hands (luggage, groceries, whatever) and needed to get in without having to insert the key? Come on guys, I know jeeps are great offroad and i love that ability but don't lie to me and say that's the only thing you are using it for is offroad. Ya never know when you might have to go shopping to the keep your passenger side seat cover happy lol.

I used to lock the half doors with the top off just to annoy people. I didn't really care if it was a thief or my buddies, either way they earned the aggravation at some time or other. plus the confused look was funny to me

seriously, lock the half doors, so funny, the plastic locking glovebox and console was pretty funny too.

Maybe I'm just mean to my friends, i don't know. Either way I want a thief to have to at least try to get to my stuff,

Its either leave it unlocked so all a thief has to do is open the door, or lock it so he can cut a nice size hole in your soft top. Wouldnt that be nice?
