I say go with the Green, you could do the "military" theme like the J8 and have some CHEAP steel wheels painted green or black.....1/2 door enclosures on the back...would really look good.
kinda like this....but green

Green's more fitting for a Jeep.

And I agree with the fading thing. I think the red might look less shiny after a few years.

 

The resale value and fading possibility guys have me thinkin' now. Leanin' toward the Jeep green now.

That $75 tank of gas "mod" sounds like a wiener, too!

 

If you like both then save the $75. Me, Red Rock was my second choice (Rescue Green was #1), Jeep green never did much for me. If I had Jeep Green though I would probably more likely to not care if I beat up the paint though

 

Some colors just suit some vehicles. What color is a 1963 Corvette Sting Ray? Red, of course. And Jeep Green suits the JKs, and will do so as long as men and women love Jeeps. As for that $75: If you plan to drive off-road, then the best place to spend that would be on a Woods evaporative canister relocation kit. Great little mod that will really get you into working on your new JK.

 

we've got a Jeep Green Liberty Renegade, and it actually looks really good with mud caked on it. It's one of the few colors that looks better dirty!

 

personally I like the silver the best but between RR or JG, Id chose RR if it was a sahara edition and JG for a rubi...but I really do like the RR more than JG

 

75 bucks will be almost 2/3 of the cost of some BB's around. Is that reason enough? Lastly, my color is better.

 

Good point. It's gonna be a RUBICON! It'd be a crime not to drive it off-road, right?

 

Budget Boost.... smudget boost. I'm going Clayton (most likely, but still haven't completely ruled out BDS, Currie, or TeraFlex from the A list... don't even get me started on the B list) all the way.
