I just found a 2011 rubicon setup just like that for 30k.

No power windows/doors here. I wanted a base model with minimal options. Not really needed when the doors should be off anyways. Less things to break down the road too.

Get half-doors then you don't have to worry about the windows at all!!

I don't lock it either...

My '11 JKU is power-nothing. It's funny to think manual locks/windows are the distinct minority in new cars; I remember when it was seriously fancy to have power windows. Anyway, I went that direction on purpose for the sake of simplicity.

I can still reach all 4 locks and windows from the driver's seat. But mine is a soft-top too so I haven't bothered to lock up much. One minor annoyance is the driver's side window crank pokes my leg; it's a little bit annoying during a long trip. But if I was gonna make the choice again, I would still do the same.

BTW,The only options I got on my JKU were 3:73 gears and limited slip rear, again by design. I figure a K.I.S.S. jeep will prove to be more reliable as time goes on.

I'm not lazy...but the wife plans on driving it also....I don't want to hear any complaining. Everyone keeps saying that price is high.....(2012 AUTO 4x4 4 door only option is SAT radio.....that is a $100 over invoice....I don't think they will come off price anymore.....

Mine came with just AC and auto. Everything else is manual, including locks and window cranks. I personally LOVE that! Fewer things to break or fix. Fewer things that could go wrong. Mine's a DD and I have had no issues with convenience. The cabin is so small that if I need to lock the passenger door or lower its window, I simply..... lean over

I paid $17,900 for my 08 X 6spd with 30K on the clock last summer. It is a 2dr soft top only with no power options except for AC. Its all that I wanted at the time. Over a year later I kind of wish I had dual tops, but that's it.. However, I am thinking of installing cruise control at some point.. A few years from now when my JK is paid off, I may sell or trade both my vehicles (I have a car as well), for a brand spankin new 4dr fully loaded Rubicon!! :r ock:

I think we see a split between the people that grew up before electric locks/windows and A/C were standard on even base models and those like me that grew up with them only coming on the higher end cars. Growing up I don't remember our family cars having any of that until I was in high school. I didn't have A/C until my third car and power locks/windows until my fourth. Thought it was cool having all that...then it started breaking. LOL! So now I'm back to no power anything...but I'll keep the A/C...I am fond of that.

Doors without PW and PL motors are lighter and easier to remove too. I am searching for a 2012 and no PW or PL is a must.
