hard top

thinking of getting a two piece hardtop. when you take the front section off, do you get a lot of turbulence inside ?,or do you leave the rear hatch up or something ??

Considering that is how the JK is designed, I doubt it would be an issue driving down the road.

Btw, you really have to pick a font and stick with it.

I don't think you would get much turbs inside the cab...Do the 2 piece tops have vents in the back. You would think you want a little "ventage" in the rear of the cab or else it might act like a giant parachuette back there...
Defintetly don't drive with your hatch open...it would let exhaust fumes in, although, you would have great air flow...although, it might just look stupid...

He has an '03 or '04 Wrangler, he automatically has a vent in his tailgate regardless of what top he has.

the tailgate vent isnt designed for that much air flow

im willing to bet at certain speeds you will hear turbulence, jsut open your window a bit..

same thing as driving around with a sunroof

i agree, just crack the window. don't those tops have a funky bulge at the top, or is it just me?

Doesn't matter exactly, it's just that you have questionable artistic talent and your choice of fonts and colors in that first post was painful on the eyes.
