2001 TJ Sport - There's nothing like top down and doors off... I thought I'd never rid the Jeep but it was a pain in the butt to keep clean and I had to park it outside, everything was starting to fade. 16 mpgs got old. But someday I'll get another one for sure.

I had a Cherokee that I thrashed to pieces. 5-speed 4.0 Sport with an exhuast on it and free-flow cat. It was fun to take off road in Pennsylvania.

We rented a Jeep in Kona last December and hit the off-road trail (road) around Mauna Kea. It was pretty fun!!

Agreed -- I was finally getting a little over 17MPG recently after getting rid of my knobby tires. I bought mine when gas was less than $2/gallon. If I had anticipated $3+ gas I don't think I would have bought it. It was fun while it lasted. I wanted to keep it as a "toy" but doing this didn't make any financial sense to me right now.

Top down was nice, but doors off was my favorite.
