I got my first Jeep last spring and have never been so excited for winter since I was a kid! Thought we would have snow tonight, was about to wet myself at work-but fizzled out-still can't wait:)

The hard top is terribly cold because it has no insulation in it. When it is minus forty outside you can barely get the thing to warm up with the heater on full. The steering wheel is a frozen cold nasty thing. Also, one needs snow tires in a big way. The standard Wrangler things it comes with are terrible in the snow and worse on ice. I bought Yokohama Geolander tires and that changed everything .. for the better. The wrangler is a warm weather toy only and not a very good one either.
@lastmiles wow ive had a much different experience with stock wrangler tires. going up the steepest snow covered hills in my town without a problem. in fact i never had any problem in the snow with my stock wrangler even off road. a wrangler is def not just a warm weather toy
@lastmiles -40, really, where do you live? I live in Ak and my 4banger tj keeps it relatively warm at even -10 farenhite, even with the holes in the soft top, Have you ever driven a car that stay's warm @ -40, cause I've been out at everything down to -60 ambient even without windchill, and after -10 nothing stay's warm except for my graders.
I just bought a new wrangler jk with the soft top. I live in massachusetts and ski a lot in northern new hampshire. the hard top is extremely warm. they really made it better than it was on the tj (1997-2006) it is a little louder than the hard top but thats why there is a radio. If you dont park in a garage i would get the hard top because there is no rear windshield wiper or defroster on the soft top
looks like fun!! we are snow free this year after three years of lots of snow. Its my fault I purchased the jeep in November.

What a great color! Good job it's not white or you might get mistaken for a snow mound.

The soft top is not bad but the hard top is warmer for the winter. If u can get the hard top!

if you were out there in those conditions with the soft top... would you still be warm inside or is the softtop not good for winter?
