i have a soft top, personally i think it looks MUCH better down, then the my top does.
the sot while cool and convenient im not a fan of having the back window, and the frame still on the jeep when doorless. maybe , ill change my mind later on but for now i like my soft top.
Totally agree with you. I’ve got a soft top on my 2024 JLU and 2024 JLR. The SOT is cool for convenience, but yeah—having the back window and frame still there when you’re running doorless kind of ruins the open-air vibe for me.

I guess it would be nice to press a button and have the power top flip back on its own. But for the money I still prefer the factory standard soft top. I dont mind just pulling the 2 latches and flipping it back.

I'd like to see Jeep offer it in the 2026 for people who want it though.

I love the Sky One-Touch (SOT) top on my Wrangler because, for me, it’s more than just a sunroof—it’s the one option I would never order a Wrangler without. Living here, where the weather can flip from clear skies to a total downpour in 15 minutes, the SOT just makes sense.

I drive with the top open and the windows down 95% of the time, even on the interstate. If the rain shows up, I just slide over to the right lane, ease below sixty for about 30 seconds, hit the button, and I’m sealed up tight. No stopping on the shoulder, no scrambling with panels.

And it’s not about laziness—it’s about practicality. In the land of sunshine and unpredictable downpours, the ability to adapt instantly is a real advantage.

People who call it a “glorified sunroof” have probably never actually owned a Sky One-Touch. Once you’ve lived with it, you realize it’s an entirely different level of convenience and freedom. If I ever had to live without the SOT, the Bestop soft top would be my fallback, but honestly, nothing compares to what the SOT brings to the table.
I agree 100%…my SOT is both convenient and easy…no storage bags taking up valuable space. If the weather gets gnarly, a touch of a button and I’m good to go. The only thing I don’t like is having that back window and the fact that the profile is not the best. That roll bar slant is pretty cool!
