As other posters have said there are some wind issues and I don't really care to drive mine without its top and doors on the freeway. >is a middle aged, overweight, grey-haired guy allowed to do this also, Last time I checked we're the only ones that can enjoy this sort of stuff. The kids are all worried about impressing the opposite sex and each other. I couldn't possibly care less what anybody thinks about me or my Jeep. (But I can't help but thinking my Jeep would be a babe magnet if I was interested in that sort of thing <lol>) >or is this something reserved for the young and immortal?? Back when I was young and immortal I road street bikes. You know the kind zero to way too damned fast in 3.4 seconds and so on. Through some kindness from God I did not get killed. Now I ride around in my Jeep, top and doors off and just as much wind as my bikes. I have as much fun as any Harley rider only now I've got seat belts, roll bars, air bags, and 4,200 pound of weight to take into any accident. Dean http://home.comcast.net/~1redcreek/ |

Yep. If it's a stock option on the vehicle it's perfectly legal. Same with I
didn't need side mirrors on my YJ when the doors were off. The only two things here that they get picky about is that the flares have to cover the tires and foglights mounted higher than the grill (ie: on the doors on on a lightbar) have to be covered unless used while offroading.
