And a good way to break stuff, and void your warranty if you don't use it 100% correctly, just ask Ford. But if you really want it, I think the Taser just added that feature.

The beauty of the Jeep is the aftermarket support. They give you a solid lego brick, you build to taste. And the ability to take the doors and roof off, is HUGE, not to be dismissed. Those features alone probably account for a ton of sales.

Having said all that, an XR 392 Rubi or Mojave would pretty much wipe the floor with the competition in my opinion.
I bought my first jeep a few months ago and frankly, I am astonished how much I LOVE taking the doors off. I wasn't planning on getting a jeep but just took a test drive for the hell of it. Obviously I fell in love. I'm surprised that the competition hasn't figured out how much of a selling point door removal is for people whether they are mall crawlers or not.

I'd bet 95% of all Gladiators haven't had their doors off in the last year. And I might still be a little low. Might be closer to 98-99%.

Around here (Wisconsin) I saw many running near naked this past summer. Granted, that isn't a scientific estimation, but near half that I did see were that way. But, overall, you may be right, I honestly have no stats to dispute you.
