haha, man that sounds painful. i was almost caught out with out a top and doors cause it was so HOT right before.

how bad is the visibility while driving in the rain without a top? besides the obvious of getting soaked.

Not very good.  I also wear glasses, so I had the wipers on in addition to having a towel in hand to wipe the inside windshield and glasses.  I had to slow down a lot. Wouldn't want to miss a building directly in front of me or anything.  lol, the roll bars will still dripping this morning.

When you own a Jeep it will happen eventually.
I've grown tired of this.

It's all part of the fun.  I had snow in Ohio IN my YJ and now rain here in the JK.  I actually got caught with the top down in a pretty good storm less then a week after I brought it home.  So much for that new Jeep smell.

Unless you're one of the mall crawling, grocery getting types.  Who would never dream of taking the top off.  Probably have a hard top on all-year around.

Haha tedder the rule you always hear on the news. Don't drive through moving water covering a road because it could have taken out the road. Would have sucked to nose dive my jeep into a hole infront of 30 people. But I couldn't help showing off.

Cars were still there this morning so looks like 3 might have locked. Shows you how deep it was.

Oh, I was told don't believe everything you see on tv. {toast}

Yea it's pretty crappy.  I wear glasses too so it's a bit work imo.  Windshield wipers pretty much become pointless because all the water is on the inside of the windshield.

But on the bright side TJ's gauge cluster and such are designed to be "water proof".
