Thats silly, a cop pulling over a 4runner, because we all know how notorious 4runners are for their ridiculously high speeds..... Why doesnt he go pick on a crotch rocket or rice rocket.

I have heard the reason that jeeps can have no doors is because they have that lip that will catch things from falling out of the vehicle where a toyota or even a cherokee doesn't have that. That is all hear-say but I believe it. One crappy thing about this situation is that jeeps came from the factory with half doors and it's no big deal. I had the doors off my 80 pickup for almost a year here in Colorado and I never got pulled over. I never even put mirrors on it.

I've never had a problem rolling around with no doors. I've done it in a few states, MD, DE, PA, NJ, ME, CT... I put on a set of cheapo mirrors to keep the cops happy. I cant see anything out of the passenger side, but they are there.

Its been a while since i've been on here but this post has gone wack.... If my friends, brothers, sisters, moms, dads, AMERICAN citizens 18+, and myself can join the military, defend what that flag stands for and put each and every life on the line for freedom and we can't take doors off? thats blasphemy. Its stupid, selfish, egotistic power trippin fools. I pay my insurance out of my hard earned factory money and if i get hurt from some dummy breaking the law not stopping, yeilding, or paying attention when i have the right of way let his insurance pay for it and my wounds. if its my fault let mine pay. if i get seriously hurt thats why i have health insurance. if i die its under my own terms not having doors. how can a person just like me point his fatty finger at me and tell me what to do? its un-american. as long as i am not putting others in danger, hurting, stealing from someone just minding my own buisness who gives a shift?
to the guys harping on the kid doing burn outs just hush. your words won't change his mind because he plainly said he didnt care. besides its a toyota truck not a supra.... they prolly just "chirped"
and i bet the boy from missouri's DOM tube doors are stronger. if you disagree you've obviously never worked with steel...
thats my rant and rave.

You got lucky.
In particular reference
http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/import/FMVSS/
and
http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/rules-regul...ection_toc=777
Check sections 206 and 214 in particular and 201 to a lesser extent.
You could very well be cited for modifying your doors and would, in court, have to justify your modifications based on FMVSS statutes in effect either at the time of manufacture/first sale or at time of modification, whichever is the most restrictive of the two.

We care because you make other Toyota drivers (such as us) look like idiots when you do stupid burnouts and other stuff that nobody else (other than you and your high school friends) finds worthwhile or even amusing. Leave that crap to Ford trucks.
