Got tired of anything 2 Door after having a 2 Dr S-10 Blazer, a Bronco 2, an older F-150 Reg Cab, and a 2 Dr Explorer Sport.
4 Doors the way to go.

All these comments about how much "better" a 2-door looks and how "cool" they are. I don't get it. Damn things look like something's missing! And what's so cool about having to get out of your seat to let someone in the back? At 5'9 that's a given for me. I'll never own a 2-door anything. Guess I'm not one of the "cool" kids ...

well thats why i bought a wj limted...if i have more then one passenger in my jeep, i just simply dont take the XJ...

the only thing i hate about 2 doors is the fact they have the same hinges as the 4 doors so 2 doors are known for sagging doors, and even for falling
off bc the hinges were designed to support a door half the weight

two doors are such a waste of energy. everything requires you do exit your seat to do anything in the back. i only own one two door vehicle and thats because they didn't make a 4 door version of that vehicle.

4-doors can get a pretty mean look if done right. not hating on the 2-door, but there are some pretty BA 4-doors out there.

totally representing the 4-door sport. something about wagon style vehicles i just think are cool. like old Chevy Nomads, Dodge Magnums, old woody surf wagons, they just have this weird cool factor.

also as far as im concerned, just bc its a 2-door doesnt mean its not a wagon style jeep..i love wagon style jeeps too..and the 2-door is a wagon style jeep..it doesnt have to have 4 doors to be a "wagon"...look at the 55 chevy nomad...thats 2 doors, yet still a "wagon"

You guys really wanna know why 4 doors arent up in the banner?
Well that because they look cute on the street and cant handle the beating that those 4 doors up there in the banner can. lol
Im jus bashing you 2 doors because i have a 4 door. haha

I would however love to get a 2 door since it is significantly lighter than the 4 door due to having only 2 door handles instead of 4.
Id be able to gain a couple of mpg's.

I love my 2 door XJ. And the rule of the 2 doors (any for that matter) is that the driver doesn't get outta the seat to let people in the back. It's just one those unwritten rules. Also, I think it's a hassle getting into the back of the 4 door because the damn doors are so small! Not saying I wouldn't drive a 4-door though. I love ALL XJs, but just happen to drive a 2 door that I bought for $400 and drove home trouble-free.

heres what i have to say about 4 doors...it takes you longer to roll all your windows down then me!!...HA!!....unless you have you know, 4 people in it, and i only have myself in mine...then i guess you could roll yours down faster...hmm..kind of a losing argument here i guess

this only goes for crank windows like mine
