I'm not the only one who thinks the Orange crush is pretty sweet in a JK right!?!? People at work are always busting on it. I just think they're jealous!!

A group of ladies were telling me in the parking lot how much they loved it tho, but then they used the word cute! That was before the black wheels and grill, looks a little meaner now I think

Any thoughts? I'm going with jealous

It's the kind of color you have to love... others won't do it for you!

My family all call it "the great pumpkin" and laugh at it...

Jealous? I doubt it... if someone wants an orange vehicle... they could go get one. They just have bad taste!

You musy commit to the orange. You must be prepared to look at it every day and say "I love it! and I didn't get it for everyone else."

I think if the orange was just a bit darker it would be a little more badass.... but like you, I'm getting rid of all metallic surfaces on mine, and adding black accents to break up, and darken the orange color.... which does make it less 'cute' and more 'extreme'

I love my crush jeep.. and thank goodness every day that I have it. Let the idiots drive around in their black, white, and silver matrix mobiles. I am not part of the herd. and neither are you brotha'!

Haha yeah I was just kidding about the jealous part. I love mine too, especially after wheel mod. I had a black 07 and I loved it, but showed every little pin stripe

I love mine also...I have quickly found it gets more comments (positive and negative)...i went completely blacked out on the mods - have certainly not received a "cute" comment...

I like the color, it just reminds me too much of halloween when you do just black and orange. If you're still getting cute comments that can only mean one thing... It is time to go bigger!

I remember when I had my Flame red Rubicon all the girls at work used to call it Rubi, and said it was cute, but they all liked it haha.

I don't really like the look of the Orange Crush, a little too bright for my tastes... But if you like it, then who cares!

For purely personal reasons, I'm upset that Mopar came out with this color, because it meant the Mango Tango wasn't going to be offered with the new engine! I would have traded mine in for a 2012 with the same color in a heart-beat!

Mango-Tango FTW! and it's still a better color than Orange Crush!

I was down to the option of a brand new 2012 sport orange crush or 2011 mango tango sport, 11k miles and brand new rubicon tires and wheels.. Went with the 12. First time I saw the crush I said no, but now I love it

I love that color! I'm a big fan of my Mango Tango, but I think Crush really stands out. And I agree that with the black accents it looks badass.
