Its common in Africa and Southeast Asia. Its pretty good. You should try it. If you are lactose intolerant or health conscious, they make it out of coconut milk now.

I voted dorky because it is. You know what else is, the soft top in sunrider position, it looks terrible. That being said, I put my soft top back as often as I can because that’s why I bought a Gladiator and not something else. I also have two kids in booster seats that love riding in the Gladiator, and I’d be an idiot to take their doors off. The number of rocks I hear hitting the side of the Gladiator is incredible ... last thing I need to do is explain to my wife how my kid got nailed with a rock while I was driving my toy

Not to mention kids drop EVERYTHING. My 9 y.o. son dropped his sunglasses three times just today, and every time I heard them hit the door. My luck, I’d get them to school and one would be missing a shoe that fell off.

THAT is a good point. Wasn't even thinking about what the kids could drop...

I don't like the look as much as all 4 doors off... but with the kid in the back it's gotta be safety first.

2 doors off is still better than no doors off and the look is SLOWLY growing on me.

@DaytonOhioGladiator Life is too short dude, do whatever you want and feel like, it's your Gladiator and enjoy it! Who cares what others think?

I see beauty in asymmetry!

I haven't taken any of my doors off yet on the JT but I actually like just taking off the front 2 doors and the freedom tops when I leave work. I stopped taking my rear doors off of my JKU because people kept lookin at me crazy when they would notice the empty car seat in the back seat...I guess they thought I had lost a kid. :facepalm:

You know what looks worse than JUST the front doors off, OR the soft top in Sunrider position?

BOTH! But whatevs, sunrider is easy and just 2 doors off is easier than 4.

Where I live doesn't have a garage, so storing the doors may be a pain in the butt to haul all the way inside a spare room or something. Just taking off two is a way easier option, but I always think JL's look dorky with the rear doors still in and fronts out.

What do you think??
Does 4 door off look better than just the front 2 off? YES, doubt anybody says it looks better with 2/4 off (definately safer with kids in the back)...... BUT.......

Every sad bastard driving a non-doors come off (easily) andnon-top comes down vehicle will be envious that they weren't THEE dork in that JT with just the front doors off.

So you'll be the envy of like 99% of other drivers.

In fact it may upset them more and make them MORE jealous that a dork like you dare drive a bad ass Jeep Truck with JUST the front doors off...

So in that regard, its almost more fun to drive with just the front 2 doors off

Take all 4 doors off, don’t be lazy. Unless you have children or dogs in the back. Then it’s OK.
