I was doors off for about 6 weeks this summer....only put them back on for a quick trip carrying a lot of gear inside.
Once I bedline the interior I plan to keep them off all of next summer.

I have had my new rubicon for over 70 days now and I have never had the doors on since I took them off at the dealer 5 mins after I got it. I lost count how meny times I have used it in the rain with out doors and the coldest it got to was 48F (not a big deal for my because I have used my WWII jeep in the snow with no doors, top or windshld.) I want to see if I can make it a hole year with out the doors. What is the record for longest without doors with a JK daily driver, and what is the coldist anyone has without doors?
This will never happen with me. I live with two females need I say more.

a guy on my block never has a top or doors on his CJ no matter what the weather is, it is covered in bad weather tho
ive only gone 2 weeks with out the top, not fond of the rain on my interior while its parked..i usually always have the back windows out 90% of the time since ive owned it tho
do you people drive in the rain with the doors ( or tops) off? or throw the top back on and keep off the doors?

With the doors off in the rain, its not bad either .. you may get some water, well a lot of mist thrown up in the jeepo, especially if your on the freeway. Just depends on what you prefer driving in really I guess.
IF you like to stay dry and warm, or if you like the elements.

Well on my JK I have ot taken them off yet, but on my CJ's I have gone for months with out the doors while using it for a DD. In fact I don't even have the doors for my current CJ anymore.

dont know how many days, take mine off late may and put them back on around the first of october. I will put them on when a big storm rolls thru though untill it passes. I have to put the doors on during the wet seasons becuase i just have too much mudd to deal with and it is a pain to clean up when on the inside.
