I have had mine a week and it! We changed the front and rear bumper less than 24 hours after I got it, added a winch and some extra lights. Found some new wheels that I am going to order today. Waiting on the new registration to go through the state so I can change my vanity license plates. Loving the new Jeep life. •llllll•

I’m embarrassed to say how long it took me to figure out that Punk’n means pumpkin. In my head I was just reading it as a shortened version of “punking.”

Anyway, I love the color! This was my second choice behind Ocean Blue so it will always have a place in my heart.

I thought Punk’n just meant Punk AND, as in Punk & Metallica

For those who frequent this thread, appreciating the Punk'n color is nearly a foregone conclusion. Some of you might like to read a bit behind the scenes and how the Punk'n came to life (it took 6-8 months to get it right):

The Jeep® brand offers the perfect color on the all-new 2018 Jeep Wrangler for enthusiasts looking to celebrate Halloween throughout the year.

The Punk’n paint color covers the body of the redesigned Jeep Wrangler from bumper to bumper, giving the iconic vehicle a splash of color. The unique color was the brainchild of Head of Jeep Design Mark Allen.

The all-new 2018 Jeep Wrangler in Punk’n.

“(Mark Allen) was looking for a new orange space that was unique from what we have produced in the past for FCA vehicles. He didn’t want an orange color that flared too red, or yellow or just went brown,” said La Shirl Turner, Head of Advance Color & Materials. “Punk’n, although it resembles a ‘solid’ color, actually has glass flakes in its chemistry. When the sun hits it, it has a great flash of shimmer!”

Once the color was proposed, the FCA Product Design Office’s Advanced Color & Materials team worked closely with FCA’s paint supplier PPG to get the perfect orange exterior color. It took between six and eight months to get it just right and not have the color appear with too much chroma or have it go flat.

With the color perfected, it was time to come up with a name. Turner said that Allen was the “genius” behind the naming and the variation of the pumpkin spelling.

“We knew we wanted a name that would fit the (Wrangler) lifestyle and appeal to the customers of Wrangler,” Turner added.

After wanting one for over ten years, finally got a wrangler. I initially looked at a gray one, but then saw the Punk'n and figured "Im not getting this to be subtle." Its pretty much my dream ride. Excited to have manual windows. Every vehicle I have had with power windows has had a motor in them bust. Kinda wish I had power locks though.

All in all glad to be a part of the cul...I mean club.

Joined the club 10 days ago. “Punkn Pete” was purchased in Boise and enjoyed sometime in Utah at Moab, home to CO to play in the snow and then today a long drive from Colorado back to North Texas for a visit before going back to CO. Can’t wait to see all the Punkn mods and get it on the trails!

That's awesome and congratulations! I just moved back to Denver from Phoenix this past Friday and I'm headed over to Pollard Jeep in Boulder in a few days to place my order for a Punk'n JLU.

Another great thing about Punk'n, is that you can spot your Jeep from your drone from a long way off. (This was work....I'm not one of those "YouTubers".
