I've got a silver two door for you. It's a 2005 "slightly modified" haha. What mods do you have?

Im thinking about trading in my 2012 jku sport for a 2012 or newer 2 door jk (possibly rubicon) I never use the rear seats or rear doors I have now and dont need all the room the 4 door gives you. And I really like the new anvil or billet silver color. Just wondering what your opinion is on this trade..

Reasons to trade:
-Start a new, more focused build
-choose a color that I like more
-better mpg, turning radius, and power
-hopefully lose some of the issues im having with mine now

Reasons not to trade:
-having to start over
-5k wasted if not sold with aftermarket In sales price

Thanks for your opinions

-Sean

Don't worry I'm only joking. My wife would kill me if I got rid of my jeep after the axle swap and countless hours of modifications.

The two is a lot more "zippy". The four seemed very sluggish and sloppy. I do not rock crawl or anything and I go down some pretty tight trails that the four door would have to hang it up. I did not need a back seat and I really really wanted commando green my four door was crush. I liked the crush but when my wife started wanting one the green just seemed to fit me because I was prior military. The ride on the two door you seem more connected with the road than you do with the four door. Some people like that and others don't it's all preference but I can tell you even though my wife has a four and it's modded also we always take the two door on vacations etc. it's just more fun.

First off, thank you for your service. And thank you for your opinion. I as well dont need a rear seat, mine is always folded down so to me, a 2 door seems like the better option. Also having the modification experience from the 4 door, I think it would be good to start over with a 2 door and make it right the first time

Thanks. Here is my two door. I wouldn't mind a rubicon but for the additional price the sport does just fine. I can go anywhere the four door guys can with big wheels I just can't go straight up like they do. The two door seems skittish on the hill climbs.
