What is an unpopular opinion you have in the Jeep community?

Tires extending beyond the fenders look ridiculous.

That solid axles are better than independent suspension for every type of off-road driving.

Mudflaps are important and look good.

The manual transmission and clutch in the JT is pretty good.

that staying stock is okay.

(i need my max tow to tow as intended with every bit of payload they gave me)

40's look more like bad ass, then badass.

Painted looks significantly better for the hardtop and *factory* fender flares

Never really understood the duck thing.

San Francisco jeepers started it

Wander and wonder are not the same word.

While I agree, painted pinstriped looks worse than plastic, and a painted top makes a sunrider stick out like a sore thumb. And I love tight brush trails and my sunrider.

I love my manual, clutch included. I think my rokblokz look great. But IFS is significantly better for desert racing. I don't imagine many KotH entrants are running solid front axles.

Dana 44s are great, even with 40s
I <3 my long wheelbase
Aluminum > steel
Who needs beadlocks?

I too love my manual. My only complaint is reverse in high range is too tall.
I love everything else about it. We have a JKU too, and the transmission in the JT is so much better. I had a 2019 vw before this, and it's way better than that one too. It's not as good as the STI I used to have, or the 4 speed on my bug, but it's better than most others I've owned. At least it doesn't make me skip gears like the challenger I used to have. At low speeds, it made you shift from 1-4.
