I hadn't given it a thought. It also makes me not want a soft top anymore either.

the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people."

A soft top would have kept it from going half

You can keep your CHANGE, I'd like to keep my DOLLAR.

That's how a buddy of mine broke his neck in a Jeep at Glamis. It now has an aluminum roof and he has a couple of plates and fused vertebrae...........
