Plant Workers: How does coloring happen?

[Sgt Beavis]

Yes they can paint different colors from vehicle to vehicle. In the old factory they could only paint 9 colors at a time. So they had to retire old colors when the late availability colors came in.

Now I think it has more to do with:

1 - Simplifying production at the beginning. Some parts are colored by vendors and getting different materials to match exactly is a pain. Especially with a new launch they are probably trying to keep some of these variables to a minimum

2 - Generate some additional interest later in the year

I think #2 has a lot to do with it.

The creation of the gator color.
Mark Allen walking through the plant spots this sealer and says, "God damn that's a good shade of green. Who the hell authorized this? Give that man/woman a raise! Now all we need is to paint a Gladiator with this color, throw in 4 sheets of ground contact treated, a box of nails, hammer and we've got our overland camping truck, damnit! "
