Obviously the dealership didn't tell me.the right color of my jeep. They referred to it as Gobi but I'm thinking it's the Gator color. I'm happy with the color, which was what really made me look at my JT in the first place. I asked the sales man what color it was and he said Gobi but after some research I'm pretty sure it's Gator.

Looks to be Gator but hey it still looks damned good. I still think tires make a world of difference on the JT.

Appreciate that! Yes sir, I do believe a good set of tires makes a huge difference. I almost wish I would of Went 37's, still researching for when the 35's wear out. I'm definitely not disappointed with the color though

It should have it on the build sheet if you bought it new. And if it's used you can do a VIN check and get the build sheet.

Probably does have it on the sticker. Honestly I didn't even look at the sticker other than to see the price and I saw the Max tow package was on there and I loved the color already so I didn't need to look for that. I was in love as soon as I drove it. When we got back to the dealership it was time to make a deal. I'll check out the sticker when I get home.

Looks like it's a Gator, Gator and Gobi kind of have a color shifting abilities. My Gobi shaded light. I was in a toss up for Gator or Gobi number 3 choice would have been Hydro Blue.

Finally pulled out the sticker and is definitely a Gator which doesn't surprise me and doesn't bother me either. I love the color. Did some trimming on the bumper over the weekend to get some of the plastic off until I can figure out which steel bumper I want to get.

Typical. Normally I'm telling salesmen around my area more about a vehicle than they know. Most don't even care anymore about finding out about vehicles. Back in the day, when you walked on a car lot within 2 minutes maybe less you had a person on you about what you were interested in, telling you about inventory and answering questions. My last two experiences, buying my Jeep and my wifes BMW, which over the weekend on the BMW were not so great. I had to go into Hendricks, ask for help and then waited another 15-20 minutes before I saw a guy who looked important and I asked him "Do y'all want to sell a vehicle tonight or what". He asked me what I meant and I told him I had been on the lot for about 20-25 minutes looking the jeep over and decided to come in to ask for help, then waited another 15-20 minutes after asking the receptionist to get me a salesman. He found someone, and that's about all I can really say about the guy. I was asking questions I knew the answer to and he couldn't answer them, I didn't bother with ones I didn't. Just looked those questions up while I was waiting on the offer for my JKU. Basically, one of the only ones he did answer was obviously the wrong answer.

Don't get even get me started on the BMW fiasco, if my wife didn't really want that car it wouldn't of happened.

We had a sales guys try to pitch us the features of the truck as he discovered them. Then as he was trying to boast about jeep being the best mid sized pick-up, he said is beat out Chevys Ranger :facepalm: And he kept referencing the Rams, pretty sure he wanted to sell Rams and not Jeeps.

I was emailing with a salesman and mentioned that I might wait for the Mojave to come out. His response after a couple days was "do you mean Gobi cause we have a couple Gobi colored Gladiators."
