Gator is suppose to be one of the darkest colors next to the black and the silver, If that is in fact the Gator color iTS hard to believe the lighting had that much of a change in the color, Gator is a dark green and wont look any where near the Gobi color when away from the industrial lighting it that is in fact a Gator and a Gobi side by side and not 2 Gobi's side by side

Someone here already posted a picture of one they took delivery of under natural light and it does not look much different than the picture I posted. Its never going to get as dark as the jeep build simulator. Well maybe at midnight on a dark unlit road lol.

Here's the one that was delivered in the sunlight vs the configurator. It will definitely not be coming as represented in the configurator.

Yeah I think that has been mentioned a few time here before that the configurator is not the gator green color.

Few thoughts:
Glad I went Gobi. I was torn.
The cynical side of me says I should have ordered Gator so I could get some class action money for modifications.

The colors not bad, I kind of like it, but it's not what was advertised, clearly.

I order gator and am happy how it turned out. I do wish it was slightly greener, but as i love gobi i still think it looks great. Cross between olive drab and military coyote brown

Umm...that’s not green. Like, at all.

I get that we all have been told it’s “Gator Green”, but that color is not green. That’s just beige.

What. The. Hell?

Definitely makes you wonder how many deposits are gonna be rescinded or deliveries refused because of the huge color variance.... might just be some kind of nationwide, dealer-driven fire sale on Gators come Spring, 2020.

Well Looks to me like FCA decided to make a light and dark Gobi and not offer the green color originally planned as Gator. Guess it is not the First time FCA made a decision no one understands

The lighting really matters with Gator and Gobi.
Look at the shaded pic in the gator thread in Ordering. Much darker and closer to website.

Yeah, I saw the shaded pics after I saw this thread. The pics of the truck in the shade look great:
