Driving without doors for the 1st time
Damn - what an amazing feeling. I took off my 4 doors last night around 6 PM for the 1st time EVER, went to the Gatineau park at night with my girl and then drove to work this morning. LOVE IT LOVE IT.
such a liberating feeling .....

If you have any type of aftermarket rear floor mats...take them out when you go doorless....
One of my Husky Liners mats....decided to take flying lesson's when a gust of cross wind launched it out of the Jeep and just as it happened I looked in my mirrors and a RCMP was following!
He turned his lights on and pulled me over and told me I didn't see that and stated that I need to secure my floor mats or anything that may like to fly!!! Thus I now take the rear mats out now.

Try to find a big tall bridge this summer and drive over that without doors. THAT is awesome! Especially the ones with the metal grate for the road, you can see through them down to the water or whatever. Great feeling

alternatively, tie them down...
drill or punch a small hole in the floormat (kinda defeats the purpose of slush mats, I know... maybe in a high point on the mat)... use a small carabiner and hook them to something secure in front of them. They may flap a bit... but not fly away
