2 door or 4 door?

[AK66]

All my life I have wanted a Jeep Wrangler. At 59 years old I finally got my dream machine and not once did I ever consider a 4 door. No offense to 4 door owners, but to me, a Jeep is and will always be a cute 2 door machine!

Absolutely the same story except I'm a year younger

A 2 door with a stick shift is my ideal jeep. I have a family that includes kids who are 6 and 7 years old and I have no issues hauling them around; I simply slide the seats forward and they scamper back to their seats. They have both commented that they love how huge their window is.

The only downside is storage. My wife's vehicle is a minivan, so that allowed me to be a bit more cavalier with how much space our 2nd vehicle offered. You can only fit objects that are roughly the size of a backpack behind the seats of a 2 door wrangler, and one of the activities that my family enjoys is tent camping. I'm considering getting a hitch mounted trunk to provide more utility.

You beat me by about three years. Wanted a Jeep all my life, from the time I was a kid and rode around in my neighbor's babysitters bright red 1967 CJ5. Almost got a brand new one in 1982, but ended up going back to grad school instead. Finally got my first one at 62. And a 2-Door was the only one I considered. It's just what a "real" Jeep is to me.

Best,

Good for you at 62, enjoy! Ordered my 2024 Willys at 62 but did not get it until I turned 63. Had to wait till Jeep cleared the stop sale on the 6 speed MT. Wife says I am stubborn and narrow minded, she also wonders where the back seat went and why the UPS guy keeps delivering all this stuff......
