Not sure what I'm seeing there.
That is the camo that is on the mules. I suspect that since it came from FCA N. America they may begin to trickle out pics that are more and more uncovered...looks like a scavenger hunt to me...

I'll edit my post but thats the head of design at FCA. He's important and he's teasing an "upcoming launch" with a close up of a camo'd vehicle.

Are you sure he’s not just showing the camo before applied to the vehicle? Looks a little odd to me.

Hope we start seeing those garbage bags removed and full teasers starting soon. Exciting if true!

Whether it's a camo'd vehicle or just camo, it is unquestionably JL camo. I'm curious whether "pre launch camo" means a sooner launch than one that would be at the LA auto show.

It's clearly about the JL. Scroll down in the instagram feed. Another FCA employee complains about having to add and remove camo to the JL and he says "I know, it will be over soon."

Maybe they'll get cute and do a soft reveal where they show the whole vehicle but taped up in that camo tape and without any other coverings. BMW's recently being doing that to tease their new cars before the official full reveal.

Look at that swatch of Camo, it's like staring at gnarly old tree, and seeing a face emerge. There's a shape there, almost can see it.
The purpose of camouflage is to fool the eye...

And if you scroll down a little further Ralp replies and says "I know, it will be over soon!" I'm so excited!

They already said LA show debut and they are calling this "pre launch camo" so I think we still have a few more months of teasing to go. Besides, why show it now when there's plenty of 2017's and soon 2018 JK's to sell. No need to shoot themselves in the foot like that.
