Door ? on 'burbs
Hi Everyone,
I was wondering, why does all the 'burbs have 3 doors, and not 4? Has anyone here have, or seen a 'burb that has made it a 4 door? If so, got pics?  TIA, David

The fourth door was not put on at the factory. Guys have outlined fake doors and installed door handles so that the fourth door appears to be there. I guess it is always possible that some one has installed a door, but I have never seen one.

Until 66 they only had 2 doors, so a third one was a big improvement.... I also read somewhere it was cheaper.
I have little kids and I am glad I only have a door on the sidewalk side, don't have to worry about them hopping out into traffic!!!
