Default The JKrawler

Really nice Jeep! Congrats!

At first, I wasn't sure about the color but after seeing Dozer at the Expo and a few around town, I'm really liking the color now.

Here's my contribution "The JKrawler"

Well I'll be damned there are a lot of creative people out there with tons of great suggestions!! I'll tell you one thing, it sure made it hard to pick a name for our new dozer yellow 2012 JK. Now, if we just went with the consensus, "Dozer" would definitely have been the pick but, we felt that was too obvious and it would be like calling Nemo "Sunburst" or Moby "Stone". The various names regarding the sun were nice but, after thinking about it for a while, we felf that they might be a better fit for a dentinator yellow as they are so bright than a dozer yellow which is considerably darker. And, while "Ducky" is really cute, it just didn't quite feel right to us. In the end, we kept finding ourselves going back to the construction themes and references and so, I think we're gonna have to go with "CAT" (Caterpillar) or, maybe change it up to "KAT" as in "Kitty Kat" or just "Kitty" for short or maybe even RubiKAT. This definitely worked both ways for us as the name CAT is often associated with bulldozers and heavy equipment of the dozer yellow color and, it also can be associated with the feline animal that is adept to climbing just about anything. We did consider "Simba" and "Tigger" because of this but, Simba didn't quite feel right to us and we felt that Tigger might be more appropriate for an orange crush.

A big thanks goes to everyone for all the great suggestions

Very cool and congrats!
Just curious, why the Automatic? I too have an automatic but just want to compair rational...
For me the Auto gives more towing capacity and I do tow...so it was a no brainer but I am thinking maybe manual on the next rig...?
