Just to be clear, the Bronco system isnā€™t an ā€œAWDā€ like youā€™d find on say, subarus or audis. The 4A option is basically a clutch that can rapidly engage and disengage 4H while normally in 2H.

Itā€™s much more helpful for snow and slippery weather than trying to manually engage 4H, but itā€™s not what most people would call ā€œAWDā€
To be more clear, many many modern AWD vehicles do not send power to both axles all the time, including most current mainstream Audi vehicles. That is to say, most vehicles marketed as AWD these days are indeed part-time AWD systems that use clutches to engage the non-dominant drive wheels only when slippage is detected.

for reference, look into haldex traction and Quattro ultra.

This is a play toy for me. Iā€™m not interested in a school bus, Iā€™d rather have the sports car. 2 door is my choice.

Two door all the way for me. I daily drive a four door Wrangler right now and never use the extra space after the first year or so of ownership. I have always wanted a two door, but I actually needed the space when I was buying the Wrangler. Two door with the seats folded should give me comparable cargo to a four door with the seats up. If I need more, I will borrow a truck.

I really want a 2 door, but the 4 door has more room to haul my walker and scooter.

The back seat space is the same on both according to online info,the rear storage/trunk area is simply bigger on 4 door,slightly more space then jeeps of same door load outs.
No, itā€™s not. The back seat in the two door is between the wheel wells so only room for 2 people. The 4-door has room for 3 people.

I think the 4-door back seat has more space in terms of width. Due to less intrusion of the wheel wells.
Correct. The difference is the width, not the depth. The extra length of the four door is mostly in the back.

How much more room does the 4 door really have than the 2 door? Some are posting the 4 door is only 16 inches longer than the 2 door. Anyone actually seen both side by side to compare? Thoughts?
The numbers can be deceiving. While its true the majority of the extra space is in the cargo area, the 4-door back seat is wider (thee passengers instead of two) and this makes it more spacious environment to ride in. An extra inch or two doesn't sound like much, but it can make a big difference.

i have a 2-door. even though i expected the small trunk, it still surprised me at what i couldn't fit back there. and the funky way the back seats fold (no flat floor) really reduces what you can comfortably fit back there as cargo.

also, i rarely use the back seats but would've been nice to have an arm rest between the 2 seats. i believe in the 4-door you have a center armrest back there in the 2nd row.

saying all that, i don't haul stuff that often,.. and ppl are rarely in the 2nd row. and i could always borrow my wife's expedition if i need more room. šŸ˜

Just get the roof rack and a basket for the 2 door. We have one on order. Family of four with an 8 and a 3 yr old. Planning multi-week road-trips without flinching. From what Iā€™ve seen, the rear seats in the 2 door are plenty spacious (for a 6ā€™ tall adult to sit in front and back). Climbing back there is part of the charm. Did it in our wrangler TJ.

2 Doors are cool, but there is definitely a trade off. The 4Dr has a decent amount of cargo space without folding the seats. Lower models don't have the center arm rest but the seat is wide and spacious.
