I have been so tempted to drop mine a few times this week. Pretty much everyday for the last two weeks has been mid to high 60's. The only problem is the dark and ominous clouds that keep hovering. Sometimes they produce and sometimes they don't, I just don't want my wife to get stuck with the top down and it starts pouring rain.

We had a huge downpour last night, lots of lightening. I left the Jeep in the drive, without the top up we'd have had a huge pool of water inside.

I agree, it would be nice though.

I hope Smuhhh doesn't see this. Any soft-top discussion and I'm afraid he'll take his life.

I was leaving work a few years ago. I got to the Jeep and started opening the top. As I was doing so, another guy came out and got into his Wrangler, which was was parked nearby. I asked him "aren't you going to take the top off?" to which he replied "No - I don't have the time." Some folks just don't get it....

Left the roof and doors home for the last week, had a shower today, it was great now i don't have to clean the inside. threres one of those 4 dr units here in town and they still have the hard top on, must be a mall crawler or somthing. I love the open feeling and get lots of drooling stares when the sun shines just turn up the tunes and ignore the world.

get the same here in Toronto and I can't quite get why I see more 4 Dr/2 Dr's with hard tops? If you buy a Jeep isn't one of the main reasons for the convertible life? Yeah to off road, but also for the weather? Strange Kanucks!

Same here in MA!!

It's KILLING me. I've had the doors off for a month and a half, I had to pull the rugs cuz they were so wet.

I swear, I am starting to understand why the suicide rate in Seattle is so high... Geeez.....

Yep, rain ALLLL day in Jersey. I have a hard top now but I'm currently looking at getting myself a soft top. Don't forget, some of us would LOVE to have a soft top, yet they either picked it up off the lot with a hardtop or their town isn't very "Soft Top Friendly" if you know what I mean. Mine was a little bit of both and go figure, I still had my Jeep broken into back in January. Live and Learn...
