After not having power locks or windows on many cars, trucks, and Jeeps that I've owned, I can say that there's no way in hell that I'll ever go back to manual. Love my power windows, never lock my doors though, so I don't care about that.

Pfft power group... All these people saying this and that about the inconvenience is embarrassing. It's a Jeep, if u literally can't be bothered to unlock a door or roll down a window u probably belong in a hummer haha settle down, settle down i'm just messin with you fancy boys

I have a '12 without all that bs, saves money for real Jeep equipment... Don't even get me started on a/c in a Jeep lol

I do not have power in my 2 dr rubicon and every winter when my locks are frozen I cuss myself on that. When the day comes and I upgrade I will without a doubt get the power option.

2012 two door Sport S with no power and I still love it. I like having a light key chain with no fob. I don't find it a pain to reach across and with my long arms I can roll down the passenger window with my seatbelt on. Most of the summer my doors were off and I find that little cubby where the switched would be really handy.

I've been considering whether I can go without power options in my next JK. Every time I do, I keep coming back to those times when you and your wife (or s/o, or kids) come out of a store, and it's raining (or snowing) sideways. It's nice to be able to just hit a button and you both jump in. No running around or making the other wait in the rain.

My YJ had no power and I loved it. I had no regrets just had to be quick when driving an wanted the AC on (you know roll both windows down and flip the little windows out).

Now I have a JK with power cause that is how the Jeep came and I love the ability to adjust both mirrors from the drivers seat. I just think it is safer to have power, less distractions when driving and want air (when the roof is on)
