Default Trade??

I have a 2 door hardtop. Am I crazy for wanted to trade for a soft top? I know the hardtop is worth more so maybe trade for soft top and somethan else? I don't have the storage for both tops. If I had a soft top it would be down all the time. But I know hardtop is a lot more quieter, better security, ect... What do u all think?

I'm in the same boat, especially living in Cali. Taking the top is a pita so I don't bother unless it's gonna be off for a couple of weeks. Only thing I'd add with a soft top is a rear security trunk cover. Remove anything of value and don't bother locking the doors.

Not crazy at all. I only have a soft top and don't want a hard top at all.

Not sure were you park your jeep at night, but I have had 2 friends that have had their soft tops cut with a knife so that their stereos and navigation could be taken. Both of them parked theirs in their driveways becuase they didn't have the garage space to park them indoors. Just something to think about.

I live in Florida.. It barely gets 50 degrees here which I can handle. I would like to have both but I only have a one car garage which my gf uses.

You aren't crazy. I got mine with a hard top and most people buy wheels and tires first, i splurged on a bestop supertop nx since I want a soft top for warmer months. I would recommend selling it and getting a supertop nx as it has more capability than the stock mopar one. Just a thought.
