So Guys here she is my beautiful new jeep which I am so happy to have and its great to join you guys.:iamhappy:

But funny story is I was insulted by a fellow jeep the same day I bought it.
So here is what happen, I'm walking out from my jeep in my parking garage and a guy stops me and says oh new jeep. I said yep and then he was like a 2 door ouch. I said why ouch he said no space and not even a real jeep you can't offroad in a 2 door. I was like wow, what do you drive and he says a 4 door Rubicon. I then said oh mine is a willys and he said that sucks man sorry to hear that. I was like wait why is that bad and he goes only a Rubicon is worth buying you can't do anything with the cheaper ones. I just literary said well enjoy your rubi and walked away.

I may be new to jeeps but wtf that guy.

Oh and yes my grammar is bad I know lol And yes I drove it home with the plastic still on it lol.

It's a beautiful rig man, don't listen to that guy he probably only bought the rubi so he could say stuff like that in the mall parking lot. And IMO 2 doors are more off road capable than the 4 doors just cuz of the shorter wheelbase. It's your rig don't let what other people say affect your opinion of it.

Yep, the only place a 4 Door is better is on short very steep climbs. (Sometimes they can get the front wheels on to a ledge and get traction where us 2 Door guys/gals come up a little short...) Other than that, I'll take a 2 DR any day for wheeling!

Also. Eff that.

You can't off-road in a 2-door? I'll tell you all sorts of trouble and fun I got into in my YJ before they even made Rubis or 4-doors.

He's likely jealous because he couldn't get a 2 door on his way to the mall.

/end rant

Sorry that really annoyed me.

Congrats on the new Jeep and that's a great looking Willys! Forget that idiot, sounds to me like he may have d-bag syndrome and just looks for ways to put down others. Unfortunately assholes can buy Wranglers just like the rest of us, I can attest that the general population of Wrangler owners do not present themselves in the same light as that f*cknut.

I'd just blow him off and revel in your new found beauty! I have a 4-door and I'm absolutely pining for my wife to get a 2-door so I can drive it lol.

2 door Jeeps have been wheeling since 1941, so the two door comment was just plain dumb. As for the Willy's comment so you don't have lockers.... I wheeled open/open for a few years. If it was a good natured ribbing, shrug it off, but if he was being a tool, then shrug it off! You have a cool Jeep, who cares what others think. I catch crap for having a 3.8l , but honestly it does me just fine and is way better than my old 258!

Sounds like someone who has never seen dirt in their life. What a stuck up, conceited, Ignoramus.

I bet the only time his Jeep will ever see anything off-road is when he drives up over a curb while checking out his hair-do in the mirror. What a douche.

Yup that's true.... up until 2007 everyone was trying to offroad with their CJ5s, CJ7s, YJs and TJs... but it was impossible! No one had ever succeeded!! Along came the JKU and thank god... people were finally able to go offroad. That Rubicon owner you spoke with is a genius! ;)

Anyone have two extra doors I can borrow? I accidentally drove my YJ off the pavement and now my wheels just spin. I think the extra weight of two extra doors will give me the traction I need to get the YJ back on the road where it belongs so I can head to the mall.

That guy is a douche-canoe. Enjoy your Willys. Liking that color :thumb:

What an ass-hat. Sounds like he had everything backwards....

You can't off-road in a 2 door?
You can't do anything with the non Rubi's?

WTF?
So what did people do prior to 2007 when there were no 4 doors?
And what did people do prior to 2003 when there were no Rubicons?
SMH...

Congrats man.....enjoy your new Jeep!

All the war footage, Mark Smith's journey from Patagonia to Alaska must have been faked. No legitimate footage until 2007. Lol
