Two door itch is real

[Punkn89]

I live out of my Jeep, and there is no way I would want to do it in a 2-door.

That is definitely a unique situation and understandable.

Yeah, I've had mine loaded floor to ceiling on a few multi-day trips with the rear seats down and the dog lying on top of stuff. Of course a little trailer for the 2 door would negate that. That's what I see most 2DR guys doing on long trips.

I would love to have an expedition trailer since I have to completely unload every night to give the dog room to stretch for the night. During the day if we are traveling he has about half of that space. I removed the back seat, and installed a Goose Gear floor to make room for my dog and all of my stuff.

Yep, that was mines spot where he slept the entire way too. Other than restroom breaks lol.

I picked up a 2007 - 2 Door JK Wrangler X this weekend with only 76,000 miles. and a 6-Speed manual transmission.

Border collies beg to differ!

Just me, the wife and the pooch, so the 2 door is perfect for us. We have her Land Rover for company and long trips where there will be no wheeling.
I also use mine for work. People are shocked at how much I can fit in the back without the rear seat.
And it's a hoot to zip around town in. With the 2.0T, it's like a full sized go cart.

YJ!

Pricing honestly sucks too - a sport S 2-door with the same specs I have now, $52k. Even with 8% off invoice, doesn't seem worth it. I'm keeping my eye out for a used one, but I am not going to lower my expectations on the options I want with it, because I know I wouldn't be happy.

WTH??? wow.. no wonder when I talk to people in the neighbored they say 'well you HAVE A JEEP' like it's freaking bmw or something.

I'm mr fancy pants I guess Lowering expectations.. welcome to the new America.

WTH??? wow..

Lol I know right - and that is without the leather I have now ? .

Just the cold weather, trailer tow, auto trans, sunrider top, LED lights, and safety. Even without safety , which I guess don't need, would still be $50k.

I'm looking at trucks again now post covid and wow.. yeah. Might just have to buy an old 12 valve cummins with 200k on it. I saw a guy with a cherry 2000-ish 2 gen cummins on 285 the other day. I flagged him down and asked how much he wanted for his truck. I'd pay good money for it. He said there is NO WAY I'm selling this truck

That's the most nimble YJ ever. That girl was wild.

Got my 2dr JL two years ago. I noticed the dealer only had one new 2dr on the lot and the salesman mentioned that they sell seven 4drs for each 2dr. And for lots of folks the 4dr is the way to go. Getting into/out of the back seat of a 2dr is tough for anyone with a shoe size bigger than 5.

But the wife and I were set on a 2dr. They just have the iconic Jeep look.

My TJ was (obviously) a 2-door, and I began missing it almost immediately after I sold it. I knew I f'd up. I intended to buy a used TJ when I bought my forever home on the Lake of the Ozarks, but the wife urged me to get a JL so she could enjoy the modern stuff (by Jeep standards). My kids are grown and gone, so an Unlimited was never in contention. I do love my 2-door. Peppy, ridiculous turning radius...proper.

But, I certainly understand the utility of more passenger/cargo space of an Unlimited. I have a truck for utility, though, so I'm good.

Nope wouldn't ever switch to a 2dr. I guess I'm used to driving large vehicles as I consider the 4dr small. I also don't care for the look of the 2dr but if you test drive and want a 2dr you should get one!

I also don't care for the look of the 2dr
