I love my 2 door. The short wheelbase is everything, handles like a sports car, turns on a dime. I took the back seat out, so their is a cavernous amount of storage. It's amazing how much room is actually back there without the seat. No family, no back seat, no problem.

They are both great, but the 4 door looks more agressive as an off road. I like the unlimited.

i like my 2dr but if you have more than one friend and plan to go out camping for the weekend you just cant fit the gear u need ...unless you lay down some cash for a roof rack. is it a choice between a 2dr rubi and a 4dr x? - if so screw the extra passengers and buy the rubi; otherwise i would go 4 door, fully tricked out i think it looks better - more like a true expedition vehicle, more space, ability to sleep in the back.

either way your getting another jeep so theres no real "wrong decision" . whatever you can find in good nik.

I'm a single guy also, use my JKU as my DD, and there are times I wish I would have gotten a 2D. I rarely have 4 passengers in my rig, but the ability to put the back seats down and haul a metric assload of gear everywhere is what made my decision for me.

I would get a 4D, but as others have said, if it's a 4D X vs 2D Rubi, I'd always go Rubi over all.

4 Door. The extra room and seating for three in the back seat is nice when you need it.

2 Dr for sure, if you go off road on a regular basis....This is due to the shorter wheel base, and less vehicle weight. If you need additional storage room add a Gobi rack.

If its a daily driver with only occassional off road usage the 4 door might be more practical.

In any case the Jeeps are Just plan fun!

You say your in high school so you are worried about looking cool, right.
4 doors just don't look cool until you lift them. If done right they are awesome looking.
With a 2 door a budget boost and 33s and you have chick magnet. To get the same effect from a 4 door requires a larger lift and larger tires IMHO.


Quick Reply: 2 door JK or 4 door JK ?????
