British Car Reviewer doesn't understand removable doors and center window switches

[Arterius2]

And then goes to insult people's wits when people explain to him it's because of removable doors. With other comments following calling out Jeepers "morons".
Apparently they don't use their own "wits" to realize that it’s designed so not all doors necessarily needed to be removed at the same time and still need to operate those windows.

I'm just slightly irritated by the fact that Jeep in this case actually designed this feature and considered all usage scenarios thoroughly, also a fact that center window controls aren't new on the 2020, or the JL, or the Wranglers for that matter... it's as if this is the first time ever they saw a Wrangler..

If anyone should understand doors coming off, it's the British.

I say this lovingly; my dad spent his life restoring British roadsters.

Not gonna watch that...I don't like nerds in polo shirts and those stupid ass shorts.

It’s illegal to drive on U.K. roads without the doors so the whole concept is unusual for him.

I agree he’s irritating though.

A nasty annoying Brummie (from Birmingham for our American friends)

He has no idea of the capabilities or benefits!

Yes irritating. More of a spaz. Banging and hitting everything. That was painful to watch - don't even know why I bothered.

You forgot YouTube rule #2... don’t watch videos where the thumbnail is someone with an over-the-top expression on his or her face or if his or her confused-looking face is superimposed next to the reviewed item.

It’s closely related to YouTube rule #3: don’t watch videos where the thumbnail contains the title of the video and the title follows the following structure:
“Top x things YOU didn’t know about blank!”
“Blank is awesome (and here’s proof)”
“[Celebrity] shows off his lightsaber skills!”
“The TRUTH about [any common consumer-grade product]”

Of course, I shouldn’t even have to mention rule #1- don’t read the comment section.

Who cares what this douchy limey bastard thinks, though with a face like that...

I believe the Jeep was originally designed without doors so it was easier to shoot the nazis that the Brits were having such a hard time with.

Did not watch the video, but if door lock switches can be installed on the doors, why not the window switches? I am sure there is a reason, though it has not been so obvious to me.

What am I missing?

I'd love to know the answer to that one too - seems to make no sense!

They shouldn't have put the door-locks on the doors. When I go doors off in front, but not in back (kids), I can't control the locks without the key-fob or using the passive entry on the tailgate. That is a major PITA.

From the mouth of someone from the country that gave us the Mini Cooper and all of it's idiosyncrasies.

This would make more sense than splitting them apart! Especially since a single button could be used to lock/unlock all doors.
