getting ready to order
im getting ready to order my next rubicon and im having a little
trouble deciding on options this time. i know i want the auto for
crawling and cruise control for the long commutes. were i cant make up
my mind is:
-half or full doors. i never much cared for the hard top on my last
rubicon and will most likely just get the soft top this time around. i
like the looks of the half doors, but the convenience of the full doors
(except when going topless, then i hate the full doors). ive never
owned a jeep with the half doors and wonder how well they will seal
when driving at highway speeds at -40 degrees.
- color. i like the patriot blue but i already have an '04 cummins in
patriot blue. i dunno if i would want _that_ much blue in my driveway.
i like the khaki but my last rubicon was khaki and i was getting ready
for a change. i _really_ like the new orange, but fear that might get
old fast. if forest green, sienna, or yellow were still available it
would be much easier. ive only seen the "deep beryl green" in pictures
and wonder how close it really is to the forest green of 2000?
thanks,

For your Montana cold weather, I would highly recommend the full doors with
roll up windows.

Re: getting ready to order
My advice...get the dual top option so you have the hardtop for the winter,
softtop for summer. I think that hardtop will make a big difference at 40
below. The soft door uppers with the half doors will be really hard to unzip
if you have to open them in winter.
You can always get half-doors later.

Hi Sandman,
Doors? We don't need no stinkin' doors! Oops, I forgot you now live
next to the Great White North.
I like any color, so long as it's blue.
Cummins is an engine, what kind of tractor is it in?
