I’ve been working a ton of crazy hours and just got word that I’m being promoted. Finally decided to pull the trigger and retire the z. It was a ton of fun but maintenance costs from commuting on north jersey highways were getting out of hand. Just went and bought a brand new 2017 jk. 2 doors 3 pedals and a soft top just as the jeep gods intended

No doors and a striped polo shirt. If I owned a Jeep, this would be me.

Low key think you should’ve waited a bit for the JL but hell, why not this? I fully endorse your choice, nice job man.

I would have gone with half doors but there were no half door manuals anywhere within 200 miles of home

Ha, your automotive path is suspiciously similar to mine! Went from a 3-pedal C5 Corvette to a 3-pedal Jeep and have been reasonably happy with it. I mean, it’s kinda slow and rides like a lumber cart, but I knew what I was signing up for. There’s a certain freedom to being able to completely ignore potholes and dead raccoons on the road. Also, not feeling bad about skipping a few weeks of car washes is a new thing for me. Enjoy it and get those doors off as soon as it warms back up!

I wanted the half doors so they’d be lighter to bring up to my 2nd floor apartment. Eventually the doors come off completely in the summer

I’ve done the jeep thing before I know exactly how addictive the aftermarket can be.
