Jeep Info...
My wife is finally tired of her Ford Taurus ( YESSSSS ) She wants a Jeep now... Either a Wrangler or a Rubicon she said. I know nothing about them so that is why I am making this Thread... She hates cold weather so I told her she would want a hard top instead of the soft top. She wants a soft top so she can "be bop" around town in warm weather lol... Am I wrong telling her that these newer soft top Jeeps will freeze her out? She also agreed for a 4x4 auto since she loved my Blazer in the winter Any tips or thoughts would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Soft top not really an issue, the interior is not that big and heat output exceeds loss. Sister has Wrangler in Chicago suburbs and never been a issue. Maintenance of the soft top the bigger issue. Her’s is 2008 and she has replaced the top once and its about ready to be replaced again. Maybe its the area she lives in but apparently keeping the top from splits and tears ticking her off and she said rather have a hard removable one next time even if its a bit more involved to remove.

I owned a '97 with a hardtop for years. It was pretty easy to take the top and doors off, and I left it like that every summer. The worst part about Jeeps, IMO (especially 2-doors) is that there just isn't much room inside for cargo. Even with the back seat permanently removed, it's pretty hard to fit a weekend worth of camping gear in it.

My wife is like the funniest woman without really meaning to be in the moment... We have been kinda shopping around for her a Jeep. We were talking and she said, " well, I could get use to driving a car with no doors on it I guess. Then she made a funny face and said, wait, what if someone steals it when I am at the store or something... I lost it and busted out laughing and said honey, if you already have the top off the thing I don't think locking your doors would stop them "..... She just looked at me for a few seconds and said " hummm, good point you have there " with a huge grin
