I‘m not a big fan of loud colors but Orange is the one exception. I actually like Orange, and think it has its place accenting certain colors. But to me it looks weird on that Snazzberry.

Actually, I think snazzberry is a weird choice for the Gladiator to begin with. It’s a nice color but it just seems out of place on a dedicated off road vehicle or truck. At least to my eye.

They do sell though, so obviously not everyone feels that way.
I love saying Snazzleberry. Such a fun word. But I have always thought it wasn't a very fitting color for a Wrangler or Gladiator. Much more fitting on a Grand Cherokee.

I've seen many choices for accent colors on Wranglers and Gladiators that make me scratch my head.

Saw this Gladiator this morning and it made my eye twitch.

Orange on Snazzleberry??

Clearly it's "EXPERIMENTAL".

Yikes! Some people can’t match to save their lives, that looks awful. Pick a neutral color; black, white, gray. This looks like a 4 year old dressing themselves for the first time.

I don't see anything wrong with it. I'm planning on painting the wheel well on my snazzberry mojave orange and install an orange sports rack. Geez, while I'm on it, might as well install a set of orange wheels.

I think they were going for Virginia Tech colors.

From an online vehicle site -

Black and silver are signs of elegance, empowerment, and technology. Silver is the most popular color choice for luxury vehicles, sedans, wagons, and hatchbacks. Black is more common with convertibles and coupes.

Blue indicates confidence, reliability, and dependability, while white is considered pristine and direct. We often see these colors with family vehicles, sedans, and wagons. The most popular color choice for pickups happens to be white.

Red is all about freedom and excitement, while orange says adventurous and thrill-seeking. The sportiest vehicles often come in shades of red. But, orange is popular with convertibles as well as rarer cars and trucks.

It's actually snazzberry with out the "le".
Snazz - a take-off of how most people pronounce "raspberry" - "razzberry".

It's an extremely popular color on JTs here.
Colors are regional - what sells best in SW California won't necessarily do well in Kantuk.
There are charts out there showing the most popular colors in various regions of the US.
Blue is a popular color world-wide and in Korea, if you see a color other than white, black or silver - it will be blue.

I live in SC and see more orange jeeps than anywhere else, all with Clemson stickers! ha
Perhaps snazzberry would be in demand more in Columbia? Prolly not. USC football will never be National Championship worthy. Perennial losers. (Columbia. Born here, schooled here, worked there)

The Snazzberry is a solid color on it's own...... if it's something you like for your truck/car.

I can't imagine a color that would accent it other than a lighter or darker shade of Snazzberry.
I'd probably start blacking out everything I could.

Hydro Blue would go well with Gecko or Bright Orange but Jeep has made the decision for me with the tow hooks and stitching.
