Pretty sure the after market will take care of this. Someone like Goose gear will figure it out how to store the doors with the back seats down or deleted.

I donāt think carrying your doors around will really be a thing. They are often taken off for days at a time when you get a stretch of nice weather, or get replaced with tube or cloth doors that are easy to toss in the back.
That would be awesome. Iām going to have to do that sometime just to see the reactions I get.For us we do a few beach getaways. I guess if i do go 2 door i could leave them in the hotel. Would be hilarious walking through the lobby with the roof and doors to my vehicle.
Yeah, I would agree with this - the idea is cool, but it seems more like an "in a pinch" thing when you really want those doors off on a whim lol.The storage āfeatureā seems more like novelty and to me; acts as a pseudo-competitive advantage against the wrangler.
Realistically, how many people are going to take their doors off on a whim, but leave the hardtop on since thereās no storage for it. Sure you can argue youāre storing them for wheeling visibility, but then theyāll bruise.
Even if we reduce the argument to taking them off for camping, youāre losing all your cargo area and better off leaving them by the campsite.
iono just some thoughts that while the idea may seem cool - it just doesnāt seem practical when applied to real world situations.
My use case will be when I have the soft top on. I should be able to go from doors off, roof down to fully enclosed and parked easily.The storage āfeatureā seems more like novelty and to me; acts as a pseudo-competitive advantage against the wrangler.

If you stick your foot through them, those hole-y doors may cost you your sole. #dadjokeCan't wait to see what those hole-y doors cost.
I almost started a thread called 4 door storage just to talk about this. Has anyone seen a system to store the doors. The only thing I have seen was the picture of the 4 doors in bags in the back of the 4 door during the reveal. How are they standing up? What prevents them from banging into each other? Iād like to know more about it.The storage āfeatureā seems more like novelty and to me; acts as a pseudo-competitive advantage against the wrangler.

I like the same kind of trips and I'm thinking a roof rack might be the best solution. They should fit sideways and as thin as they probably are you could probably have a lower slot for doors and an upper one for normal storage. Steel doors are fairly heavy and awkward but a frame-less aluminum door might not be too bad to load up there. I'm also really feeling the need to build an off-road trailer and that would make things easy.I plan on driving my 2 door across the country on a 10 day road trip (badlands, moab, zion...) as soon as I take delivery. I will definitely be traveling with the doors for a trip like that but want to be able to take them off at some point. I'm sure there will be answers by the time I go but if anyone hears anything about onboard storage solutions I would love to know. Thanks!
I think you're right about the roof rack idea that's what I have been imagining. Thanks for the tip! I'll have to look into that when planing the drive!I like the same kind of trips and I'm thinking a roof rack might be the best solution.

PS: If you're in the Zion area I would recommend venturing across the Parashant Monument and camping at Twin Point (or Kelly Point if you really want to break in your suspension). Amazing Grand Canyon views and you'll have the place to yourself. That's one place I'd like to have larger than a 17 gallon fuel tank!
They aren't as thin though as I was expecting.I like the same kind of trips and I'm thinking a roof rack might be the best solution. They should fit sideways and as thin as they probably are you could probably have a lower slot for doors and an upper one for normal storage.
