Default Driving with your nuts out, fix

So I have seen a few people complain of a rattle around the 'B' pillar area, and I think I figured it out. I didn't have that rattle untill the last week when I started driving around with my nuts out, (which I have always done in my other Jeeps with no problem). OH, I am refering to the DOOR HINGE NUTS by the way!
So, I'm gonna stick em back on before I go to work in the morning before I go to work and see if the rattle goes away.
Any one with the rattle have their nuts out too?

Default Hmm

I drove around with my nutz out one day and it was kinda scary. Things would seem to bounce up and down and I was afraid something would fall off that would be expensive to replace.
I weighed the pros and cons of having your nutz out or in and decided that I was much more comfortable with my nutz in as opposed to out. Not that it is more aesthetically pleasing but I think it is safer and my wife seems to like it better too.
My mother in law even noticed my nutz were out which kinda surprised me. She said I should put them back in also in case I get into a wreck, something might fly out.

So for me its nutz in for safety. Its not really that big of a deal to take them out anyways.

Just a little FYI:

Driving with your nuts out, and in shorts...when you add a bee at 65mph, it doesn't play very nicely.

I was wearing some shorts the other day when I hoped into the jeep to move it and the wife told me mine were out. Of course my doors are off so i could not figure out what she was talking about.

On a related note, I was in a relaxed, "let-it-all-hang-out" mindset, and decided to drive around with my rod hanging out. I kept driving around and kept hearing whistles everywhere I went...

Then I realized it was the sound of my fishing line cutting through the air at speed - did you think I meant something else?
