Thanks for the confirmation. On the bright side it appears that my local dealer was not trying to pull a fast one.

Yellow
Detonator Yellow was what I wanted too. I was hopeful Dozer was a brighter yellow like Detonator with a maybe tinge of orange. From what I've seen on this thread, Dozer appears to be orange (not yellow), somewhat lighter and maybe brighter than the deeper orange ... Crush. But Milhous originally described the Dozer as a Graphic Yellow. A search for graphic yellow elsewhere shows it as a medium deep bright yellow. Hopefully we'll get updated descriptions and better color chips soon.
Thanks to Milhous and WCDave and others of you in-the-know for each timely bit of information you receive.

Yellow
Just noticed that Header Orange (Grand Cherokee) and Crush (Wrangler) have the same (PL4) code. Probably the same color although on other colors they keep the same names when available on different models.
Again, its hard to see that Dozer is a yellow.

Ahhh now that makes a lot more sense! I didn't understand how they could do 3 orange variations and no dark blue (not that orange isn't cool and all). Still want dark blue though.

matching flares onn rubi!!
I got sahara flares for my 08 Rubicon on this forum for 400 bucks... I like the matching flares with the black top.. doing the same for the Sahara Tan on order.. I'll try to find pre-painted ones or I can just have mine painted to match the new jeep... either way it's way cheaper than the $200 the dealer wants per fender (unpainted)!

It's almost a laughing matter to me that not all that long ago I read the Rubi owners looking down there noses at the Sahara's and matching flairs,,, but now that the Rubi has it for a option it's suddenly cool. 
And after having the matching flairs on my sahara I can tell you that I'll be ordering the black ones on the Rubi when I order mine. But it's all good.

Why will you order black ones ? Is it just because you prefer them this way or is it because color matched was hard to maintain (scratching or flaking...) ?
