Hi,

Suprise to see the 100 buck upcharge, if you like it get it, if you think you'll like a different color better then get that, as most of us don't order new Jeeps or other vehicles that often.

I got Hydro but almost went Sarge Green, but already have a green vehicle.

Good luck with the decision,
Jim

Gobi is a great looking color but I can't help feel like it makes it look like a Safari tour guide fleet vehicle. It's like accidentally wandering into Target wearing a red shirt and beige kakis ... someone is bound to ask you what isle the lawn chairs are in. ;)
Just depends on how its setup. I always bought silver for ease of staying clean but Gobi is even easier to maintain.

I bought a Gobi JT and loved it! As soon as they announce Gobi for the JL I ordered a 392. By far my favorite color. When off road the color is in its element.

Dirt is essentially grey/light brown so anything from this color to that will hide dirt well. Hmmm, I'm lazy and metallic silver is my favorite vehicle color ... coincidence? ;)

It's funny to me how different this color looks from one photo to the next.
I've seen it in person on a Gladiator Mojave and loved it. I see other photos online of it and really don't care for it. Jeep's online configurator doesn't do the color justice.

Gobi would be a top choice if I was buying right now. Matched with black, it looks great.

Colors can be weird. I scoffed at the "Punkin'" color, but now that I have it I love it. But like Yellow, I don't think it would look good with color matching top and fenders. However, I do think color matching top and fenders work well on a two door. 🤔

Get whatever you like and enjoy it.

That’s BEAUTIFUL! What setup (lift/wheel/tire) are you running with!?

Also, yellow is good on exotics and a vette, that's about it.
My previous 2018 Dodge Challenger T/A in Yellow Jacket was easy on the eyes....IMO. The contrasting matte black and retro looks made it a head turner.

We differ there, I still don't like it in this instance. But I'm glad the option was there for you and that you liked it :)

Gobi would be my choice if I were to buy today. I'd like to see more desert southwest colors on the JL. How about a factory desert camo?

Hopefully you didn't wait too long, you can no longer order a 392 wrangler
