Never seen a windshield folded down on any wrangler ever. A gimmick to keep the .001% of wrangler buyers happy.

That's how I feel about the whole removable top thing as well, to be honest. I very very rarely see a jeep up here with the top off, and I'm sure I would never use that feature on the Bronco.Never seen a windshield folded down on any wrangler ever.

āup hereā is the key. Last week the weather was perfect here in Phoenix and at least 50% of jeeps I saw had at least the freedom panels off. Probably 25% had doors or full top off.That's how I feel about the whole removable top thing as well, to be honest.

Here in Phoenix I see a few tops off and LOTS of doors off. I'm a climate controlled dust free windows up and a/c on kind of guy myself. I couldnāt care less if the doors and tops come off. Jeeps havenāt looked right to me with the doors off since the CJ.That's how I feel about the whole removable top thing as well, to be honest.

When I lived in PHX my Jeep had the top off for months on end. I miss it :sun:āup hereā is the key. Last week the weather was perfect here in Phoenix and at least 50% of jeeps I saw had at least the freedom panels off. Probably 25% had doors or full top off.
Agreed. Is it possible that other tops are designed to fit OVER the roll-cage? Perhaps there will be some molding cover over roll-cage bolts restricting access for easy removal?Allowing someone to remove the only thing keeping them alive in a roll over is a terrible idea.
"Allowing" is a very unusual word to use here. I think "encouraging" would be a better fit. Those little steel caps over the idle jet screws on carburetors didn't prevent anyone from adjusting the idle, it just added a step.Allowing someone to remove the only thing keeping them alive in a roll over is a terrible idea.
This is an important distinction, not just in the minds of owners, but in juries too. If Ford makes it easy to remove or replace but does not encourage people to do so, doesn't advertise or market it as removable etc., they protect the company from that kind of risk. At the same time, if the community choses to applaud Ford for designing the vehicle to be easily customized and repaired Ford will still reap the benefits."Allowing" is a very unusual word to use here.
