Last week I had the doors off and my female neighbor who drives an H3 was teasing me about having bought a "car" (she said car) that didn't come with any doors. I brushed it off and smiled just being neighborly.

WELL...Yesterday I saw her driving to work. SHE HAD SHUT HER DRESS IN THE DOOR! It was flappin in the wind and rain as she drove. I'm sure when she got to work she was pissed off.

I don't get the looks, maybe because I don't own a tie, but my ex girlfriend was a young, hot, teacher that dressed very nice and drove a late 60's Bronco. Talk about getting looks!

$30,000.00: Price of getting a new JK unlimited with goodies

$90.00: Tank full of gas

PRICELESS: Driving around roofless & doorless with the kids in car seats and getting the looks of disgust or smiles from drivers........

ONLY WITH A JK do you get the satsification of enjoying the outdoors while you drive!!!!

Been doorless and topless now for about 2 weeks driving 95 everyday. The other day I had a cherokee honk the horn and wave. Yesterday I had a little boy, probably about 10 hanging out the window giving me the thumbs up! Not sure how safe that is on 95 but it is pretty cool

I hope you told her that everytime someone calls a Jeep a car God kills a kitten.

Sorry, let me correct myself I-95. Going 95 would be pretty damn fast in a jeep
