Default Bright Silver vs Crush

My brother in law is joint the JeeP community!

Ordering his first ever Jeep a JKUR

I've helped him pick out his options and he's going in to order it this weekend....only one thing remains color choice!

Now I'm a more classic guy, Stone White and BFG for me, but I like the Crush, so that was my pick for him....Have fun with it!

Still any Crush or Silver owners care to weigh in with their thoughts on their JKs or anyone whom wants to give their opinion it would be welcome!!

Here is how I see it...

Silver
is the easiest color of all to keep looking new and clean.
has Universal Appeal.
is more sophisticated
better resale

Crush
is loud look at me color
is more exciting color
is like it or hate it color
more difficult resale

I had a Yellow Hummer and was glad to give it back after 2 years.

I now have a Silver Jeep and am much happier.

Colors are purely subjective but the 2 biggest non subjective items are resale and maintenance.

I tried to buy a '12 Rubi in Crush. Longish story. Ended up with an '07 Silver Sahara. Glad I ended up with the silver...although a Silver '12 Rubi would have been freekin' sweet!! The Crush is hot, but like has been mentioned above I believe it would grow old fast.

Where Jeeps are concerned bright colors are a plus. I had a bright orange CJ years ago a color only made for a year or two. When I sold it I got more than I initially asked because there were buyers fighting over it because it was so hot! Believe me the color rules that apply to cars dont apply to CJs Wranglers, etc.

Silver. It shows scratches less and looks good even dirty.

Mine's white but my second choice would have been silver. the coolness of the crush i think would wear off pretty fast leaving you wondering why. just my opinion though.
