Couple hundred pounds, that's the difference? One of me? The way you hear some people talk you would think the 4 door was 1/2 ton heavier than the 2 door.

That is what I have been saying on here for quite a while. Everyone talks about how much quicker and better performance the 2 door has and it makes me wonder how much better it actually is or if it is just a myth.

It looks like you have added a little more than a full tank of gas to your Jeep.

I've had both, no real difference in "take-off" speed...feels the same.
