With that color the green looks a little too yellow-pukey for me.
I have a motorcycle with a dark blue paint job. The color shifts on the spectrum depending on light, distance, etc. I'm curious to see this in direct sunlight in person before I fully commit

Id like to imagine the final color would be darker. It doesn't make sense to name the color Gator and then have it be Olive. I would assume it would be darker green like alligator skin. The lightness of that color doesn't look anything like what I would call alligator green. That's it though, all of the pictures that jeep has released makes it very clear that it is more olives than dark green. So I have to believe Jeep isn't misrepresenting the color even in pictures taken outside of a studio.

I will wait till hold judgment until I see more pictures or production pictures of the color Gator but I am fairly disappointed as I wanted a darker green. Everybody on here seems to want different shades so it probably makes as many people happy as upset but that's my two cents

I actually have the information for that with the exact specs and some other nice tidbits. I spoke to head of Jeep Design this morning and the head of the Gladiator design. I’ll make a post about it but got some good information.
Great, thanks!

Anyone else a little disappointed at the thought of JEEP actually producing this? Takes the fun away from doing it yourself and having something you can't just buy "off the rack." I'd guess 90 percent of this could be done aftermarket, really excluding built in gas cans. I thought the options for a wrangler were almost limitless, but what we will be able to do aftermarket with a Gladiator will be mind blowing.

These are just one off vehicles. You cannot buy these from Jeep.

That's a huge disappointment, I thought we saw some factory pics that were a darker green that were claimed to be gator. This seems to be a dozen shades lighter even from the gator color sample on the jeep.com build site. Just going back to look at the color renders on the jeep site, the wayout concept color is much closer to the gobi color render then it is to the gator color render. I might just be in denial but I firmly believe this is gobi and not gator
If anything I bet they changed the shading of gator. The Gobi will be the likely be the same color as the Gobi released in 2017

That is a particularly bright green, I'm guessing funky lighting or odd camera settings.

I have to say, I love that a simple 2" lift will accommodate the 37" tires. Just about everything else on the market needs a 3" lift just to get to 35" tires.

I noticed that in the still pictures. The roof luggage rack meant no removable roof panels. No clue why they did that.

I’m glad it is a one piece top. I wish the JL had a one piece top option. Once I get the rack on, the top will never come off.

Agreed, in these concepts its no longer a traditional Jeep, so some functionality makes more sense like creating a more permanent hardtop.
