Anyone living in seriously wintery regions with the premium soft top: Is ice on the rear window a problem? If so, how do you deal with it? Letting the Jeep heat up until the ice falls away? Or does ice just not form?
I've read scattered but conflicting info here (and elsewhere), so I'm looking for some first-person experience reports.
I'm ordering a 2020 JLR and the dual-top option isn't available for two-doors. I've run hard tops on my previous Wranglers in the winter and often had to scrap ice off the back window in the winter ("often" as in "four or five times a week" for some stretches). I assume using an ice scraper on a soft top rear window in -20F is a bad idea.
I can order a hard top JLR and the premium soft top separately (not cheap—around $2k, I think). If I can run the soft top year round, I'd prefer to just do that.
Thanks,
