Man, thats a really good point. I forgot thats all included now. 3 years ago when I started looking I remember having to add that as optional.
I made it clear to all dealers I have been working with that my time frame is like 3 to 4 weeks and everyone I have dealt with so far has been pretty darn cool. Ive bee working with people in and out of state and found that being super honest goes a long way with many Jeep dealers. This will be my first Jeep vehicle of any sort, and so far the pre buying experience has been good.
I travel a lot for business and been teasing the hell out of myself through AVIS, as they rent JK's in most cities I go to and take the option every time. I cant wait to post pics of my own on here. . . . .

Really? That sucks, and especially on a Jeep. I hate power door locks/windows--just a malfunction waiting to happen (I keep vehicles for years--nay--decades).

Ah, no, sorry. I was just listing the price for the option so everyone new what i was getting. They are not making it dual tops, but that would be sweet.

You should be able to pick up a new one/near new one from someone who bought dual-tops but doesn't want it for around $500-600. Keep an eye on the forum For Sale section, as well as other sources like e-bay and craigslist.

It sounds good to me.
To give you an idea..
I got an 09 Rubi unlimited, with NAV/DUALtops/side airbags/Auto/16k miles
for $28500
It was really like new condition, the soft top was never used...and everybody thinks it was new, even myself.
I love it.
Also it was kind of hard to find an unlimited Rubi. I had anotherone on sight, 08 with 10k miles/6-speed/dual top/navi for $28000, but it was sold the day I was going to see it, I was actually ready to buy it.
Good LUCK, and enjoy it.....
