Would you buy "Rocky Mountain Pearl" if it were offered?

I like it. It kind of reminds me of many of the dark browns Jeep used in the past on everything. I agree it would look great with the 392 bronze treatment.

I don't think I would want the pearl out of rocky mountain oyster. No thank you.

This color looks like Gator.

It’s a 3 row. It’s supposed to be bland, has to compete with all the other bland mid size 3 rows. Those customers want to blend in and be like everyone else. Silver will probably be the most popular color in those.
Agree to disagree. I know it’s a three-row but I’m in that market and don’t want bland. I’m not saying TRD Pro per se, but something more exciting than what they currently offer. The colors they offer are also quite bland, especially the velvet red. Blah! Give me a Sport Model or Trailhawk model or something with some visual appeal

Ever see a clean* Granite Crystal Wrangler parked against a truly grey or grey metallic vehicle--especially in strong sunlight? Granite Crystal has a tinge of brown/bronze to it, even thought it looks totally grey on its own.

Maybe Rocky Mountain Pearl is the new Granite Crystal!

(*-I wash mine maybe once a year to remove all of the yellow pollen, so this is not a huge issue for me. ;))

That would be a good color to replace black in the Black & Tan edition...

...but Black & Tans aren't my thing, so no.

I wasn’t even aware of the existence of this thing, seems like it fills the same role as the Wagoneer.

It more so competes with a 3 row explorer, Acadia (I think that’s the one), telluride, etc. Wagoneer competes with the expedition/el, Tahoe, suburban market.

Should be the spot for the Grand Wagoneer, no? Are the “grand”s just a quality change nowadays? This GC L just looks like a Traverse.

The picture makes that color look like Granite Crystal with a hint of green. Jeep’s digital images are always somewhat off over what the color looks like in real life.
Totally disagree with this comment, but maybe I’m the exception. I’ve been waiting for a 3 row Jeep for many years. Just because you have kids doesn’t mean you want bland. I likely won’t buy a GC L because of its bland looks, and I’ve owned 4 prior GCs. My 392 is a third car that unfortunately can’t haul as much as I often need.

Wagoneer = Tahoe/Expedition

Grand Wagoneer = Escalade/Navigator

If the colour at the top of this thread is accurate then yes I like it.

Ehh those are the same vehicles as far as I’m concerned. I guess I need to see a GC L in person. Comparable to a Traverse makes sense I suppose. Just a real narrow, crappy market.

Think I would get that big Toyota soccer mom SUV before Wagoneer. They are nice looking, best of all the full size in my opinion. But they are all way too much cash.

Wagoneer still far better than Ford and Chevy, at least in looks. I didn't even check the price on the Toyota TRD Pro, like the color though.

Jeep Wrangler JL Would you buy "Rocky Mountain Pearl" if it were offered? hotlink

$66-68k for a TRD Pro Sequoia, at least around where I live.
