Also tinted rear window.What is the difference between the basic softtop that comes with the Gladiator and the Premium Softtop that's offered for an extra $600?
i didn’t see the premium softtop option on my build sheet but I do have the tinted rear window.Also tinted rear window.
Nope.Also tinted rear window.
I also have the basic soft top on my Willys Sport, and have the tinted back window.Nope.
I have the basic/non-premium soft top, but have tinted windows.
By myself, first time was probably an hour including removing the hard top and assembling the rear belt rail. This spring when I put it back on after winter it was probably 1/2 hour.Glad to hear it was a fairly easy install. About how long did it take you and did you do it alone of with help?
Should be pretty cold in Ontario by now--how is the soft top working out for you (I'm in Chicago and about to order)?My problem with the hard top is when you take it off.....wherever you leave it, you gotta come back for it. Or if you do have the dual top group, storing the hard top when not in use.
Would I like a hard top, sure, but the soft top makes more sense for me.
FWIW, I went with only the premium soft top and I am located in Toronto, Ontario (Canada). I will let you know what I think after running it in the winter.
Awesome! Not cold at all. The heater in this Jeep is second to none. We haven’t had a ton of snow yet, but it’s been cold.Should be pretty cold in Ontario by now--how is the soft top working out for you (I'm in Chicago and about to order)?
I mean your in NJ, I’m in NY. You have a hard top ( which I want ) I have a premium soft top (which you want.) let’s make it happen!IMO, the Premium Twill softop is the best. I had a twill top on my JK and will never go back to a regular softop. Like an idiot, I ordered a 22 with a Hardtop. At the time I ordered, it was part of the popular equip package on the Sport S that included the 7 inch radio and a few other options. Fast Forward and the 7 inch is standard on the 22'. I could have gone with just the premium twill top and avoided the hardto all together. I really regret ordering the hardtop, as I will have to pay for another top. Also, in my experience the hardtop will just become a lawn/garage ornament for the duration of time I own the Jeep. Honestly prefer the way the softop looks compared to the hardtop.
-24C (-11F) this morning. Upper body was nice and warm, my legs were a bit cold tho go figure.Should be pretty cold in Ontario by now--how is the soft top working out for you (I'm in Chicago and about to order)?
Yeah same here this morning, I'm a little east of the 6 (that's The Big Smoke, The T-dot, Toronto). Soft top only, I've had dual tops for my other Jeeps, got tired of the swap.-24C (-11F) this morning. Upper body was nice and warm, my legs were a bit cold tho go figure.
How far east? And I agree... I vaguely remember my JK being the same.Yeah same here this morning, I'm a little east of the 6 (that's The Big Smoke, The T-dot, Toronto). Soft top only, I've had dual tops for my other Jeeps, got tired of the swap.
My biggest complaint is that the lower vents seem to do nothing at all. I can get heat from every other vent, sometimes too much heat. But the lowers suck as bad as my JKU ones did.
