Cast your votes, but please keep to your respective location.

Also let people know why, colour is a very personal thing and behind most decisions is a good story. So come on don't be shy.
 
Magic Mushroom, but may go with Scottish White once I've seen them both, hopefully side by side at the test drive in 2 weeks. I think the MM looks best for a military design / utility vehicle, and will probably blend best with the natural desert sand and not show dirt as much in my area.
 
Eldoret Blue with a black roof. Like the nice contrast of the black rails and accents against the Eldoret Blue.
Looks like it's already a classic color now and sure to be one in the future too. Saw it both under the tent
and in the sun at the Los Angels Drive Event. DaBull
 
This is really interesting seeing the choices in each market. I’m going with magic mushroom with black roof. The color provides contrast so its features can be seen. It will hide dirt, dust, and light scratches/swirls. Overall, in my mind, it just suits the purposeful mission of the grenadier. Eldoret blue is my second choice for many of the same reasons. It would also be more characterful and memorable. I can see myself regretting not going with eldoret blue in the future. I spent many hours and thought making this choice. More so than with any prior car purchase.
 
Mirror @mgohillbilly selections.

Why? Because that is how my wife wants it to look--i think because of a vintage Bronco paint scheme that she remembers

Now, I just need to talk her out of the red ladder frame.
I love the look of the red ladder frame with eldoret, but it's a bit much "look at me" for my tastes. If I were 30 years old or retired, I'd do it. Gray...maybe.
 
Apparently I'm one of the few thinking of Shale Blue. Contrasting white roof, and a red frame. I figure it celebrates both 'Murica...and its British heritage :sneaky: I feel like that red frame could also make leaks, etc. stand out a bit more. That could all change, though, once seen in person! Admittedly I'm considering MM as I intend to use it for the sole purpose of escaping to the woods, and Virginia is known for pin stripes as much as it is for rocks...more rocks...oh look another rock! I also rarely wash my trucks :unsure: With that said, a little color in my life wouldn't hurt. I currently have a dark gray Forester XT, a black Rhino Liner-covered Sequoia, and a matte military green-wrapped RAM.

Shale Blue with black top looks good. I want to see SB in person. Right now I am going with Donny Grey. Silver is also a possibility. I think the blue in this picture is over saturated but I like it. I think SB is lighter in person.

I will stick with Scottish white after seeing it in person at Hollister Hills for the test drive. Classic color and will add the black roof. I also like Sela Green but they did not have one at the test drive so for now my second choice.

Right now, Britannia Blue, white top, red frame because it costs nothing at the moment. 🤣 I do have reservations on BB after seeing the prototypes at the demo event. It’s more black than I would hope, but I’m still hopeful.

You’re right, SB is slightly lighter and less saturated than what you see in this pic. It’s a lovely colour in the flesh, my choice with white roof.

TBH, they’re all pretty nice up close!

Here you go, here’s a comparison pic I took at a drive day.
