Just got my first jeep, 2 door Rubicon. Its a blast to drive on the street and trails. The kids, however, do complain everytime they have to crawl in the back. In hindsight if I had the extra money I may have gotten a four door. For now too bad for them cuase I love this thing.

Down here in south Florida around the military base, 2 door JKs are the majority. Considering how many military installations we have throughout the country, I'd imagine that's a lot of niche 2door jeeps running around. 4doors are doing very well but 2door soft tops aren't hard to spot down here either.

What I am more concerned about is them no longer giving the option of having a manual tranny that would be a serious downer

Like Lui said, on the four bases around me, all have a large amount of 2drs. My base is small and has 1 4dr, and 5 2drs. I just went on a boat with another unit and almost the whole engineering department has 2drs.

Now I'm not a serious off roader but to go along with the point jeeps are becoming more and more "driver friendly " better road manners and mpg and interior options which I understand because the 4 door reached to marked for family's and what not but I feel like that simple and basic design that well I love about the jeep is fading and I would hate to see it become like evey other SUVs today that are futuristic and a computer on wheels I know they need to change with the times but you have to know ur roots and where u came from with that said I hope they don't kick the 2 door or 4 door

They will never do it. I have a 4 door and a 4 door pickup because I have a family of 4. The 4 door pickup out sells the 2 door. And they will never get rid of the two door truck ether. It fits a niche, just like the 4 door does.

The 4 door brought out the false breed of jeeper. The type of person thats like "oh look honey, it has four doors like a hummer so I want one". They are the breed that doesn't wave or understand the true love of a jeep wrangler . I'm not talking crap about all the four door true jeepers, just what the concept appealed to from the beginning .
