Sting Gray (aka Destroyer) is actually just a marketing scheme

Now we just need a Plum Crazy Gladiator so we can call it by it’s other name, Statutory Grape.

I'm uncomfortable . . .

My safe word is

Destroyer

It's gone by a few names on different Mopar vehicles but predominately it is known as Destroyer. Ceramic grey was another name on a few of Dodge muscle cars but originally it was destroyer.
Marketing decided to change it since that's a "Dodge" color name.
It was named this because the goal was to match the color of a Navy destroyer.
They call it sting grey in the marketing for the gladiator but they still refer to it as Destroyer internally.
Here is a screenshot of my rig that's enroute.

Personally I think destroyer is a much better name and since it's being retired from the muscle car line and might keep going in the Durango I'm going to use the Destroyer name instead.

Besides. I haven't forgotten what the stingray did to Steve Erwin.

Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Destroyer sounds much better. Time to get a destroyer edition decal from PixelDecals.

Yeah, I found one of the factory build documents still left in my truck after taking delivery, and it say "Destroyer" on it. So, I can definitely confirm the internal name is Destroyer... but Sting-Gray still sounds pretty cool, actually.

I saw the post and thought of this

I've had this in my head since I saw it on the shipping update.

My safe word is

. . . 'don't stop'.

It gets confusing . . .

The good news is that Statutory Grape does not discriminate. It goes both ways...for purple AND violet!

grape is multifaceted. purple and violet. a color and a flavor!
it covers a lot of ground. it's the jeep of the food, color and flavor world.

Um, the fact that the color is a play on sting ray should have clued you in that it was a marketing scheme, just like all of the others that don't just name the color (except maybe bright white?). Unless you think that firecrackers are all a certain shade of red that matches the Jeep red - in which case I also have a bridge to sell you.

A sting ray killed Steve Irwin. Irwin was known as the Crocodile Hunter. Crocs are similar to gators. The Destroyer/Sting Grey should thus deserve to wear the Gator badge!
