Punk’n Color Returns For 2023 Jeep Gladiator

[GladLad]

Still no Mojito

Yep.

We had heard Punk'n was coming back this fall. Had there been Mojito or Gecko rumors, I would have seriously considered holding off on my order.

Bikini AND Punk’n?!?!?

Damn. I just paid off my Gobi

My 2 favorite colors

I am probably ordering a 24 JLUR Willys Xtreme now

Would love a Bikini JT but doesn’t appear that’s going to happen. It’s probably my favorite color on the Wrangler so this makes it hard. Order a JL and compromise in towing and having a bed, or order a JT and either hope the color gets announced in September for the 2024 JT or just get a color I don’t like as much.

It says production starting in September so that could align with a 2024 JT rumored announcement.

Nice, bringing Punkn back. Now they need to offer Reign on the Gladiator!

A vintage punkin.

Same for the 23's in Earl. You can still get the half doors, but they'll be in a different color :/

You should be able to get some from a JL, it's not a limited run color on the Wrangler. (for whatever reason)

I love both those colors.

If Punkin were available when I ordered my Gecko Green JTRD I MIGHT have done that to match the Impact Orange LJ. I do like having contrasting colors … but matching could have been cool too.

I’ve always though Bikini on a JT with the saddle interior would look BA too

Man now I'm really bummed. I ordered Earl but missed out on it because of the clutch recall and production stop. I reluctantly changed the order to red when they asked me to change it. Last week I finally get an email saying its sequenced for production and now I find out they brought Punk'n back. I can't win with this order

Dang. I told myself I wouldn't miss my chance if Nacho or Punkn came back....

Seems like it would be too irresponsible financially at this point for several reasons. Plus I'd be giving up the limited slip.

I wish Punk'n was still available when my '20 Punk'n was totaled (in '21). My replacement '21 only has 6K miles on it. Kind of tough to replace it now with such low miles.

I saw a Tacoma in that yesterday, thought it looked cool. Wouldn’t likely buy one. Like most of those colors, ages rapidly. How long can you look at a “hot” color.

I don’t know about the “hot” colors aging … I bought the impact orange LJ in ‘08 and still get compliments on it pretty much every time I drive it. Plus I’ve only ever seen 3-4 other factory impact orange TJs/LJs in the wild (know “hot” colors are not as rare anymore).

I'm hoping for Punk'n in the 2024. Can't bring myself to order a 23 right before the 24s are released.

Same - have a '20 Punk'n Overland now and don't see many other Gladiators in that color here in Boston, MA area. It's a great color, though my second choice would be Sarge green. I got sideswiped in '21 and the dealer paint shop brought in a Mopar tech to mix the color. They said Punk'n has something like 11 other colors in it. They did a flawless job.

I understand the fiscal responsibility aspect but why would you be giving up limited slip?
