I know the sunrider was super popular. But I was never a fan. That bish was like 800 bucks just to unfold that small area lol. I really want to see their soft top. I am wondering why they haven't really shown it yet. I remember the first generation of jeep soft tops having leak and seal problems. I hope that won't be the case for Ford
Yeah, $800 for the nicer version, $100 less for Bestop's basic one. I did put it on my Wrangler. I live in Michigan and It could be 40 degrees in the morning and 80 in the afternoon. Leaving the house with the panels in, taking them out in the afternoon for the drive home and putting them back in when you get home wasn't realistic. I also loved having the security of a hard top. To me, it was worth $800. I see tons of Jeeps around me with them.

How long did it take to switch back to full hard top?

I think it also would have made since if the freedom panel was just one piece versus 2.

Good to see some more info but that guy really shouldnt be doing video reviews without knowing what he is talking about. Nearly everything he said was wrong and had to be corrected.
Yeah, after the first minute or two, I just stopped listening to what he was saying and was just watching.

Yeah did the exact same thing. There were a lot of errors in what he was saying but the footage was great

That's not correct. The 4 door comes with a 4 piece hard top. There is no option to get one with only 3 pieces.
I'm pretty sure the 3 panel is an option you need to select. Trying to find where I saw it or heard it.

You are right, it's standard 3 piece for 2 door and standard 4 piece when you choose a hard top on the 4 door since it comes with a soft top by default. Sorry about that.

If you get a hard top, the 2 door comes with 2 removable panels and the main roof section. The 4 door comes with 3 removable panels and the main roof section. That is by default and there is no option to change those configurations.

The only slight change is that the 2 door with a painted top can be had with a removable panel in the main roof section. That option is not available on the 4 door or the molded in color roof.
Can you show me about the removable panel in the main roof section for the 2 door? Tought it was exclusive to the 4 door and that's why it was a 4 panel roof.

Awesome video. I have reserved the two-door and plan on spending my summers with the doors off! Next time could you demonstrate getting into the back seat? The Wrangler's passenger side front seat slides really far forward to assist in rear seat access. Wanted to see if the Bronco had the same feature. Makes getting into and out of the back a lot easier.

Unfortunately, I am not the author of the video but I will be on the lookout for a video that shows this.

Found this video that mentions the door weight at around 50 pounds and shows the underside of the roof panel. She mentions storing them in the back as well. Door info starts at 2:52.

OK so I'm only on Page 3...probably been answered already..
But weighs about 50 pounds? Where did she come up with that? She lug around big bags of dog food all day?
Did like the part about enough room about doors in the back tho

Hi guys,

Found this video that shows the doors and roof being put back on. Also it shows the trunk area of the 2 door altough the lighting is pretty bad.

You can skip to 6:35 if you want.

The video says base model but there is no way this is the base right? It has a steel front bumper and is in Cyber orange.
