Half VS full doors
I am thinking of ordering a 2013 JKU and plan to get a base sport. I am torn between getting half doors or rolldown windows. I live in NJ so gets fairly cold in the winter but I don't mind if its a little colder inside the jeep and it seems worth it for the summers. So, I am posting a poll to get opinions.

My next Jeep will have half doors. I broke down and bought a set of soft doors. I feel too cooped up with the full doors. The uppers can always be replaced if they get scratched up.

Half doors! I had full doors on my 07 and hated them with the top down. The window opening is small. I ordered my10 with half doors. I live in the country so I don't need to roll the window down for toll booths,ATMs or drive thrus. I never unzip the windows if I need them open I take them out. They can't be beat after the temp gets above 70 and you can leave them at home.

I have half doors on my 07. They have held up good with only minor scratches. I drove a buddies jeep with full doors for a few days and I liked the full doors better. I say this because. I always have a window down, it's nearly impossible to safely zip the window while going down the road. The main reason for me is. If it is nice enough to leave the house without the top halves. I always remove the entire door.

Doors
I do like the half door look, but after 8,000 miles Michigan -Montana-Colorado, I am still fond of full doors just do to there convience {quieter on freeway wih M/T tires, cooler in summer, warmer in winter, easier to close in a suddden downpour}. I do have Road Armor tube doors for summer time.

Half doors will work with a hard top. The hard top takes the place of the soft top door surrounds. I have seen guys running halfs with a hard top. You just can't order one from jeep that way.
