I'm looking for pictures of the paint on other Chrysler products...

Looks like Gecko was Cactus green pearl? http://photos.ebizautos.com/8727/6968753/6968753_1.jpg

Winter Chill was Normandie blue... can't find a picture...

Black Forest Green Pearl was Frosted Green Pearl... can't find a picture either. :P

Someone correct me if I'm reading this wrong...
If you go for a less French spelling, "Normandy," there are more pics, it was an old CJ color:

If I had to pick between those three colors, it would have to be Dozer for me. I am intrigued by some of the other colors that are yet to be seen though (Gecko/Winter Chill).
They wouldn't do the color Dozer like Cat yellow. Remember that Fiat owns CNH... Case New Holland. Marchionne is much too brand sensitive to put a Cat color on his products. You see Case equipment in a lot of the Dodge Ram commericals. And Case IH with the Ferraris (go figure that one out). If they are copying any construction equipment Case "Power Tan" is more likely closest to the Dozer color.

Here are some quick pics:

I agree. I really love the Service Dept. and have never had any problems with them at all. They inspect my Jeep with the illegal light guards and the Svc. Mgr. personally washed my Jeep Saturday when they were short staffed and it felt like 100 degrees outside. I've never had such a wonderful relationship with a dealer service department before and would hate to go elsewhere. I just don't want to get ripped off because I don't want to wait until the dealers get their stock on the lots.

I will try WCDAVE's suggestion and see if I can get a discount on accessories as there are a few that I would like to add.

Many thanks to WCDAVE for sharing this.
My dealer doesn't have his samples yet and I still can't open the link. This sucks. It's killing me.

I want a dark green but how do you spend THAT much money without knowing exactly what color you will get?
