Thank you guys so much. This was a really special video. I know I have a few emails, but that was me, Jono. Thank you for pulling clips from my ruffcountrycabin YT. I was not expecting that. You made me and my wife cry a little. It was really amazing to see. We love you guys. DRC is the best!
Thanks for sharing your story!
Prices on new Jeeps are just stooopid. A 2 door sport for $42k is insane, you could get a Rubicon for less than that not too long ago.
Get a used Jeep and pour that money into it and it will be better than anything you can by new.
The two doors look so good. So much fun to drive.
The godawful long wheelbase of the JKU was the deal killer for me...
As a recent empty nester I picked up a 2024 2 door wrangler and man it's so worth it. Brings back memories. Me, the wife, and the dog driving around in the woods with the doors off and the top down is the best! Your video is spot on, keep it up!
Thanks James! The memories for sure
I bought a 22 Willy's new when my kiddos left the nest. I absolutely love it. It's probably my last vehicle I will own. It's so much fun, and my grand dog loves to go for open air rides.
Love my 2011 JK 2 door! Still going strong 174k miles.
2012...60K...going super strong!
The 2 door! I have owned six 2-door Jeeps. From oldest to youngest, '69 CJ5 (our snow plow), '79 CJ7 (our mud truck), '87 YJ, '07 JK X, '18 JK Rubicon and our newest a '24 JL Willys. For the family over the years, we had other people and animal haulers but ask the kids what they wanted to go to an event, camp, day outing or whatever and it was always 'the Jeep'. I'm in my 60's and I will always and only own a 2 door!
Awesome to hear Jonathan! 2 door is a way of life
2 door all the way baby!!!
You're pregnant
Love my 2 door Wrangler! Searched around until I found a 07' JK with 70K miles on it and a 3" lift sitting on 35's. Didn't care for the new JL design, I wanted a pre-2011 JK for its ruggedness and I love that still resembles the TJ except a little grown up. Love the power and the way it drives!
I drive a 2 door rubicon. It’s a 2015 and I truly love it. Turned on a dime. Gets around a parking lot with ease. I’m an empty nester so I really don’t need anything bigger.
I just bought a 2024 2 door a few months ago and love my decision. It has so many perks that you don’t get in a 4 door. I’d advise anyone to get whichever accommodates their lifestyle the best.
Enjoy the new 2 door!
Two door JL on a nice lift and beefy tires looks soooo sweet
Love the stance and beefy look they have.
Love the nimble ride of my TJ on trails.
Agreed!
I grew up riding my dad's Willys M38A1 so I bought him a 2023 Willys Sport, everything manual, for his 80th birthday. Great memories were and are being made!
Love to hear that!
I know I am a bit young to mention this but I am 22 and when I was in high school in 2017 I got a 1998 White TJ. That was the best vehicle I have ever owned, it had the sad 2.5L. However, I did not care about the lack of engine power, the age of the vehicle, no AC, not being able to shift into second, the scars it gathered from its previous owners. What mattered to me and made the most core nostalgic memories was just enjoying its simplicity of it being a 2 door with half doors, cruising down a backroad with a sunset blasting your favorite music just hits the heart even during the heat of summer.
Sadly I had to sell it to get a more "reliable" vehicle for college. Now that I am out of college, I am teaming up with your affiliate program to get a 2 door white JLR with the half doors. Hoping to experience what I used to, it was a great feeling and made everyday a good day.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
I’m 42 and I’ve always wanted one. I just want to cruise around the neighborhood and the puget sound in the summer with the top down and doors off. I’m super frugal and usually go with the cheap commuter cars, but I think you have have just convinced me to finally bite the bullet.
I am Gen X and got the base model, a hard top 2-door Sport. Super fun. Do it.
We just picked up a 2020 lease return Black on black rag top two door rubicon recon… 15,600 miles… loving it!!! In the early 70s my first was a 72 rag top three speed 304 V8…then a 74 with a v8… then 76 Renegade straight 6… then another 76 Renegade v8… then a 75 with v8… loved them all… now at 71 years old I’m cycling back to the good old day… two doors baby!! Love your channel dude! Keep on keeping on!
Purchased a 2023 2 Door Willys Sport this year. Have absolutely loved it.
I have a 2004 TJ and absolutely love it!! If I get a new Jeep I will go for another 2 door. As a kid I rode in the back of my uncle’s CJ, no doors or top. The nostalgia does it for me 👊🏽😉
Love to hear that!
The TJ's go forever. Fabulous vehicles.
Great story to end things with guys, as a 2dr Punk’n JL driver, I did come back home from the 4dr JL. Couldn’t be happier! Awesome video!
Love Punk'n- Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed this video! Ordered a new 2024 Willys Manual and have decided to go base Sport and automatic instead of waiting that other order to fulfill. Jeeps bring back fond memories for me and it’s the only vehicle I’ve ever truly enjoyed driving. I reflect a lot on my time as a kid, hanging my feet out of the door, watching my dad always work on YJs and TJs in our driveway & can never forget my first job ever: holding the flash light.
Good choice! Thanks for watching.
I bought a 2 door sarge green back in 2008 after leaving the service and traded it once my son was born; I truly miss it to this day. Great advice , thanks for sharing Sir.
Right on! Thanks for watching
Love this video your videos why i chose my 2 door HVJL. And youre right you learn alot about yourself with em or in my case reconnecting with yourself. Appreciate your channel!
Thanks for the support!
Another absolutely incredible and comprehensive video!!
You guys absolutely kill each on every one you do!!
A YJ is my dream not for wheeling but to have and enjoy!
Keep up the incredible work!! 👍
Would love a YJ too!
I've had my 23 2-door willys for about three months now. After wrenching on it (making it my own), I absolutely love it.
Love that!
Love my 22 JLR! Thanks for giving the 2 door some ❤!
I bet! You jeep is great.
My first vehicle at age 14 was a 1946 CJ2a, with the Willys "Go Devil" inline 4. My friends and I took that thing everywhere! It would do about 50 MPH downhill with a good tail wind... Fond memories for sure. Today, 53 years later, I have a 2021 JL Rubicon in my garage! Every time I drive it think of the '46 CJ. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the 2 doors.
Awesome video!! I love my new (to me) 2021 JL 2 door. Its my first Jeep and it is just incredible. I just got it about 2 months ago. I cant wait for this Pa winter to see how she does in the snow.
Very nice! Enjoy your new Jeep
Bought a 2016 Jeep Wrangler 2dr Sahara Edition, Granite Crystal Metallic soft top in 2021. I owned pick up trucks for years. I had my last truck for 15 yrs.It was still in very good condition and only 118,000 miles.I guess I wanted something different. I installed a 3in. Iift and 33's on custom wheels and aftermarket front bumper. I like it alot and get many comments on how it looks just right, or a few ladies have even said how cute it is. I plan on keeping it for a long time. Can't make a bad decision on a 2dr any model.
Hey love the video.. I’ve been a fan of the 2door for a long time.. I’m happy to see this video because this year I’m get my 2 door jeep.. I was debating on 2019 or 2020
REALLY GREAT POINTS!!! I'm a 52 year old YJ guy who's owned mine for 26 years. I also have a built JLUR and recently did a 98TJ for my dad (as seen on my channel jeepNdirt) and the views on that simple little video have been crazy. People (we) love our 2 doors and it's nice to be a part of that. I have a YJ build / overview of mine coming up soon and can't wait to share. You're absolutely right about the 4 doors. We demanded more space, wheel base, and other goodies to accommodate all the things that we do now a days and I too admit that I love my built JLUR on 38's for many reasons but specifically the daily drivability and the ability to simply turn off the road and just go. Some places a two door is better but some places a 4 door (wheelbase) is better. Either way, for me having both is a blessing and I too wish to share that experience and encourage folks to just go out there and enjoy them. Good stuff man. I just missed you at the jeep invasion. I'm still working on my little video of that event but I love the pics you shared in this one. I too enjoyed those same 2 doors.
Awesome! Send us some photos and clips from the video. We will share it and send people to check out your full video.
@@DIRTROADCRED Thanks. I will.
I like 2 and 4 doors, but I just love the 2 door so much. I’ve only had one wrangler and it’s my 2000 TJ, and I just love the look.
Totally with you!
My father had a CJ 2A and a Renegade in the 70s I own a JK 2009 and its 2024 been durable as all heck and still looks good. I think ill stay with a 2 door if i decide on 4 door ill try a gladiator. But Manual always love they still make manual trans !! Still get connected on and off road with a manual.
Thanks!
Great vlog! I started my jeep love in a V8 CJ5. Really miss that one! I would say I really love my JT though. I will have another CJ5 one of these days.
CJ5 and a JT would be a solid combo!
Keep the 2 door strong jeep it's amazing truck
Funny you mentioned an 87 Wranger, I got my 1st jeep in 87 and was the YJ Laredo, lot's of chrome. Loved it. Just ordered a 2023 2door Sport S basically loaded. Great vids from "The Cred"!
"The Cred" love that!
@@DIRTROADCRED EDIT DOH - 2024
Aloha Matt. I didn't know that for the advantages on a two-door Jeep Wrangler vs the 4-door. Great job on the assessments and analysis for this video.
Glad it was helpful!
2 door is the perfect vehicle for this 65 yoa to pull behind a Class C RV. Improves the fun on our vacations.
Started off with a 97 tj which I still have and now have a 23 2 door jl and I love both
Awesome!
2doors ! Got rid of my two 4door jeeps .no more mini vans . Had two 2door jeeps after that. Love the 2door and original ones
4dr jeep wranglers still just look wrong for me, if your gonna go 4 door get a wagon or a power wagon, that’s what I did, 2017 ram 2500 Laramie with the powerwagon option and 2019 2dr rubicon manual and 68 charger in current restoration all my dream vehicles
If you don’t have a family or need the extra space the two door is perfect. We love our two door Wrangler Sport. Nice video. Thanks.
Good point!
Had an ‘84 CJ7, and miss it still, but now in a 2dr 2020…and love it! 2dr all the way.
Right on!
Love the two door- Ryan you got a cool vehicle.
Thanks!
I had a 2 door 2018 Sport Wrangler and I loved it. I could go anywhere in it and felt really secure in the snow. It was a lot of fun to drive too. We had to many cars at the time & my husband sold it back to the dealer in 21 for 33,000 a thousand less the we paid for it. So mine held its value. I hope to get another someday soon.
Thanks for sharing!
I have a 2021 2 door JL. Love it. About lifestyle. I am a dad and when I pick up my son from elementary school he climbs up the tire and hops in the cab. In a 4 door he would just get in through a door. But the memories he will have...
Once my son gets a little bigger I will do the sameb
I bought a brand new Suzuki Samurai back in the day and loved it. Bought another last year and recently had to sell it. Memories!
I've owned YJs, TJs JKUs and now a JLU. I am keeping my eye on a good YJ (they are so "simple) but I would settle on an early TJ in a flash.
Would settle on the TJ as well!
Ordered a 2024 2 Door Jeep Willy's in April, received it in September. Worth it. Came from owning a 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara. It's just fun man.
Enjoy the new 2024!
Great video. I've had 4 two doors.
4:07 For safety, it's a good idea to keep your hands and arms inside the vehicle.
My uncle broke his arm when his tipped over.
Ordered my 24’ 2 door manual JL Sport S. I couldn’t find the manual with the options I wanted in a 500 mile radius outside of central Illinois. Dealer said 10-12 weeks. That was 11/24/23. Update email sent on 12/23/23 was Jeep built, a scheduled delivery date of 1/2/24. Can’t wait.
Well said y’all.
😎
Nice Video. Yeah I like the 2 Door Jeep Wranglers. I test drove a 2024 model yesterday, It was an Automatic, I was hoping it was going to be a Manual Transmission.
LOVED my 2 door Wrangler, but i like to carry a lot of stuff, so i ended up getting a 4 door, wish i could have both.
"Most the people I know that are buying this as a 30, 40, 50, even 60yo person, they're utilizing this as something that brings them back and connects to their youth spirit" is the NICEST way of commenting on a guy's midlife crisis that I've ever heard. I'm going to have to remember that-- "NO, I'M NOT HAVING A MIDLIFE CRISIS! I'm bringing myself back and connecting to my youth spirit." 🤣
I had 73 cj 7 but I sold it I wish I had not. But now I have a 2020 jeep wrangler 2 door jl in punk'n orange and I love it
Love punkn!
The tj has a frame rust problem 😢. I love them. A couple of my friends have them and I have been helping them out with the frame weld on kits 👌. Gotta keep tj's on the road and trail.
Love the TJ!
I bought an all manual 2015 2 door sport soft top as new. I was determined to figure out how to sleep inside comfortably, I'm 6-2. I built a storage platform thats the same height as the passenger seat when folded flat. Not inclined.. totally flat. With a 6-4 bed and plenty of headroom, it's now a fantastic 4wd micro stealth sleeper. Very cool. 👍👍
What the hell
Yep bought my 2021 2door Willys Jeep new at age 59. I use it a little because I am saving for it retirement and waiting for the hopefully soon manual transmission recall.
Good on you!
Bought in 1999 a Jeep Cherokee Sport, for the next 25 years it was our day-to-day car. Then in 2014 we added a 2001 Jeep TJ to the mix, same 4L inline engine, same everything :). And swapped last summer (after 25 years !!) the Cherokee for a Subaru Crosstrek. But the Jeep TJ will remain our summer "fun car". Yes, it's yellow :) ....
Great video…
Thanks!
Great video and I think you nailed it. I am 62-yrs old this is my first 2023 2-dr jeep, 2.0 turbo is a kickker brand new, almost all groups except the safety, tow, not lifted. Although I could not afford a Rubicon I have to work my way up the ladder, 2026 I hope to get a used (2025 4-dr). I was kinda sad that I did not get a 4-door, I made the right choice, short wheel base. Thanks.
Awesome! Glad you’re in a 2dr
Im also trying to get some square headlights for my JL
This video made me miss my red soft top 2 door jk sport. Me and the wife were in a 1 bedroom apartment before our kids and life was so much simpler. Now with a family of 4. The 23 JLU Rubi is way more practical and comfortable for kids.
Exactly! Totally get it
I just Retired and I would love to get my 77. CJ5 Renegade back and fix it up. But it's not in the budget.
Maybe one day!
I like the color on that 2 door. Similar to the Sting Grey on mine. I looks good with the steel wheels but perhaps a mild lift and RWL all terrain tires would make it sharp. Currently on my 3rd Wrangler at age 65 and 6th Jeep overall.
We love the Anvil color! We have some cool stuff planned for it.
I bought a 2019 Rubicon 2 door last fall.
I love it and I wish I had bought a jeep years ago.
( I'm 59 )
Love to hear that!
I owned a 4 door JKU, traded it offfor a truck. Will soon be buying a 2 door JL, no need for 4 doors.
Starred driving jeeps in the late 70s retired now drive a 2 door jeep and go fishing lol
nice video........ I'm sold getting a 2024 Willys white 2 door
We honestly just got back from looking at 2 doors, we have a 2020 JLU that my wife uses as a daily but I use it to play on the weekends. To say the least she’s not happy when I get back from the trails and there’s scratches on it and she doesn’t believe me when I say they’ll buff out. 😂😂😂 So now we are in the market for a 2 door that she can call and build as hers. I just found it funny that y’all’s new video is about the 2 doors and by the way we will be logging on to check out y’all’s Jeep place because the prices here in Memphis are crazy. As always great video
haha! Just a few scratches and dents. Thanks for watching Rick!
You lost me at square headlights! Lol😅 good video
😂
Great video Matt!
2 door is the only jeep
Q: can the headunit screen from the 2024 can be installed onto the 2018 and up JLs?
We still need to test it!
My solution was to have my 2 door rubicon as the summer exploration toy and when I need 4 doors I have the gladiator. Now I’m just waiting on the Jeep recon and hopefully have a trifecta on Jeeps.
That is the way!
I work in San Francisco. I see quite a few 2dr Wranglers. Mainly for parking convience. But away from SF, the 4dr rules.
My first Jeep was a '63 Willy's Wagoneer, back in '82. The Next Jeep is a '96 ZJ, back in '15. My latest Jeep is a '23 JLU. I am really surprised how short the JLU is. Not as small as the ZJ, but smaller than my Durango. And tiny compared to our diesel Ram 4dr 4wd pickups.
Had to say goodbye to our TJ a while back. 217,000 miles and 26 years on it and it was starting to get expensive to maintain. It was a great project jeep but we needed 2 reliable vehicles for our separate jobs. So we're now breaking in a new '24 JL. Don't know how it will fare maintenance wise but I already like the 8-speed transmission better than the old 3-speed and the brakes are much better. Not sure about those electric windows though-kind of sacrilege on a Jeep.
I love my jk 2 door
2 door are so much better for off road !
You covered my reasons for going with the 2 door JK explicitly! Yes, the JKU would have been “more comfortable” and probably more practical but Jeeps are meant to explore and the 2 door provided more ability to explore. Besides, my previous Jeeps, an ‘83 CJ-5 and a 91’ Renegade, they were traditional. Yes, the practice husband’s Land Rover with the longer wheelbase was still pretty good off-road but good grief (and Lordy, did I get read the riot act for taking it off-road!), the electrical issues and it ate 5 quarts of oil every 3 months with no apparent reason. I could fix my Jeep. Fairly easily. That thing? No way. One more experienced based reason to stick with the shorter wheelbase.
Thanks for covering all these reasons for choosing a 2 door model. I’ve kept my 2013 Rubicon stock except for some minor cosmetics because when I went looking for a Jeep after a few years without one, I found that I had to be meticulous about examining anything that wasn’t stock. Some budget upgrades will kill the drivetrain very quickly. Heck, even stock vehicles had to be inspected very carefully to make sure they weren’t damaged off-road at some point and not properly repaired. In the end, I decided not to deal with those issues and bought new. So, I know exactly what she’s been through and still love her, even if my current husband doesn’t understand all my reasons for sticking with what’s worked for so many years.
This was a great explanation. I did cave on the automatic this time after having a cramping leg in Houston traffic for so many years. I laughed SO hard at hitting the Bimini top to push the water out! If only I didn’t put on the seatbelt right away, I’d have been great! The seatbelt made a U shaped channel that ran right down my shirt and I’d always forget. My plugs are always pulled!
We love the 2 door. Thanks for the comment!
I have a 1997 TJ which, of course, is two-door. I've always said that if I were to buy a new Jeep, it would definitely be a 2-door because, to me, a two-door is a real Jeep. ☺
Just got a 2024 2 door as an empty nester. I love, love, love it! Got a bikini top and new mods3very week.
Great to hear!
Would you recommend a 2004 2 door jeep wrangler as my first car?
Most off-road bucks that buy these wranglers end up reinforcing not counting the rattles under the chassis and the rattles on the roof and the road noise what's the rattles require work
One thing you left out...And it's a very small market...But as an RV'er, it's the shortest vehicle you can flat tow behind a motor coach... With just my wife and I it is an option we are considering...Better maneuverability and easier to park is a big deal to us...Just have to get used to the comfort of the ride versus the 4 door...Appreciate your channel...
Great points! Thanks for watching
I just bought a 2018 2 door. And honestly, it was not an easy find. I also wanted a manual transmission which might have been why I had some trouble.
Good stuff!
Coming from a 2 door, I and my lifestyle just needed a 4 door and is much better than a 2 door. But to each their own, I don’t hate on the 2 door Jeeps.
Respect that!
I bought my 1st Wrangler in 2009, a stock JKUx with 3.8 V6 6 speed , with soft top,the only options were a tow package, carpeted floor mats & 6 speaker sound system with sub woofer. $17,600.00 worth of mods later, I still have it and would never get rid of it for 2dr.
But in 2019, I bought my wife a Bikini Pearl Blue JL 2dr Sport with all the options. Both have there places, for everything our JL 2dr can do better than our JKU, there our things our JKU can do better. It's just a matter of what you want to do.
Exactly! Thanks for sharing
Ordered my 2024 jeep wrangler 2 door sarge green jl sport s july 29th,went to scheduled for assembly on Friday September 15 😢,now the wait begins.
Excited for you!
@@DIRTROADCRED Thanks..could you by chance give a call and see if they could get that assembly line rolling again.
Hello Jeep community, who could tell me the exact height clearance for a 2024 Rubicon with extreme recon package as I am building a garage. Thanks a lot
One reason I didn't even consider a 2-door when I bought my 2023 JLU Rubicon back in the spring: it's not big enough to haul both my and my wife's telescopes and appurtenant gear when we go out observing with our astronomy club. 🙂
Not a bad reason!
Like to get a cj7 to restore got a 2018 jlu
One more. I just think the proportions on the 2-door look better, especially with the top off, and even more so with the doors off.
Can agree with you there!
Yass! The YJ bikini top. That was my first.
Good times!
Ordered my 2 door in July and it's built but sitting there cuz of the strike. If I ordered a week sooner I'd have it.
Hope stuff gets resolved soon!
Same here went to school in V8 CJ 5 and mountains of North Carolina as kid or every were heck old man took off into pine thicket full speed what a memory me screaming 😂 not knowing what on other side 😂😂😂😂
Just traded in my 2015 Sahara JK two-door for a 2024 Rubicon JL two-door. Two-door all the way!
Love to hear that! What color?
Trying to order mine I'm at
$48,022. With DC haven't pulled the trigger yet I'm in Florida looking for my best deal😊
I have a wife, two kids, and a dog. So I have a Camry and...
a two door Jeep!
cool
My wife has the 05 t.j 2 door 4.0 on 33 and I really wished it had a hemi in it 😂😂😂😂😂 man does that thing struggle on the highway I barely drive it except maybe weekends and I'm like it's this thing gonna go or what 😂😂😂😂
They're good but remember this when you buy one they are made for off-road and the 4 x 4 gearbox and drivetrain has overtime and they're very expensive to repair, they were not made for the open road
Wish I had a garage...would get a 2 dr to go with the 4dr daily driver.
Might be time for a garage!
@@DIRTROADCRED That is an excellent point.
Actually Matt, 2 doors don't loose to much ,I keep getting calls in Iowa for my 2 D Rubicon and it's $45,000 ! And I had mine built in 22 at $45.525.00 with 22,000 miles look for a dealer who is looking for these so you can get most of your money back ? Sometimes lol
