Yeah, I'm hoping in the next month or so we'll forget all about this article because we'll all be anxiously checking the tracker website waiting for our Earl builds to be scheduled. I think there are a lot more people waiting for Earl than High Velocity.
I'll believe that when I can see pictures of one that aren't obviously a black truck that's been wrapped, or someone can provide a VIN where we can look at the window sticker. Not saying you're wrong, I've just never seen anything to confirm that you're right.
Either way, it's a different...
What do you mean used to look like? That's High Velocity - that's the paint code which was a new color for the 2022 JL. It was never any different color.
I wouldn't trust much until you see a press release from Stellantis or your dealer shows you the order screen. We saw an early fleet order guide for 2022 that had both Earl and High Velocity on it for the Gladiator and it never happened. Reign was supposed to be a 2022 color for the JL and it...
I'd be far more inclined to believe everything if it wasn't for the mention of Punk'n coming back over a year from now on a very specific date. We can barely get info on what's happening in the next month as far as ordering goes and I'm supposed to believe that this information that's 13...
Because the build and price option on the website is more for inventory identification. You build on the website and you can find something similar on a lot. They haven't started building 2023s yet, but they did update the JL page within a few weeks, so give it a little time.
So, are you saying there was a color other than these available to order for Gladiator?
Black
White
Firecracker Red
Granite Crystal
Hydro Blue
Sarge Green
Silver Zinyth
Sting Gray
There was a six week delay between when the 2023 JL order banks were open and when Earl and Reign were available to order. Odds are, Jeep will do the same with the Gladiator - several weeks from now we'll see new colors (hopefully).
I asked them about the paint on their Facebook page before because I thought it might be Earl, but it was a custom color they had painted on several of their show vehicles. I like the tan, but I think the whole dash needs to match.
I will be ordering Earl and my wife and I just didn't think that red would be the best color contrast with it. I talked with my wife over lunch and showed her pictures of the saddle leather. She seemed to like it, so we may go that route. I'm sure if I ever wanted to swap the leather covers...
I thought about that but wanted to do something custom with the seat material (hence ordering cloth). I'd hate to spend $2k on the leather upgrade just for non-red stitching and then swap the covers out for something else. Maybe I can be happy with the saddle to avoid the hassle.
I'm looking at ordering a Rubicon and know that I don't want the red stitching on the interior. Obviously, I can replace the seats with Katskinz or something similar, but that still leaves the two shift boots and the steering wheel with red stitching. What are my options for replacing these...
I'm not saying you're wrong, but I've never heard anything before about a hella yellow JT. Nacho was available for a short time, but they made more than 100. Got a picture of one?
I have a feeling you're right. I want something new, but not something super common. Unfortunately, my wife is sold on Earl and really doesn't want Reign.
Do we even know that both Earl and Reign will be colors offered on the gladiator? I'm pretty hopeful about Earl since it was supposed to be a '22 color, but I wouldn't count my chickens with Reign. The only official information I've seen about the '23 JT up to this point is that the Freedom...
It's crazy to think that the first Earl Gladiators won't hit lots until 18+ months after it was announced. I'll most likely order Earl, but I'm curious if any additional colors will be offered. I hope Friday doesn't come and go without any news.
