Re: STUPID QUESTION
 
When I first got the Jeep I locked the doors (because that is what I did
with my other cars)... but now I don't bother... with a soft top and windows
that have zippers, I see little reason...

Just don't keep anything valuable in the Jeep (the same caution you'd take
with any convertible).

It keeps kids out if you lock it. A kid like some of my friends from way
back in grade school can get in a car, shift into neutral, and pop the
parking brake loose quicker than you can say "negligence tort."
