Default Toxic Orange?

I just checked the Jeep website. Apparently Mango Tango is now called Toxic Orange Pearl.

Don't know. Mango Tango was kind of weird for a Jeep. But I was looking for Mango, saw the toxic, searched local inventory and it linked to Jeeps with Mango on the sticker.

I'm guessing they changed the name to make it sound a bit more "manly"; Mango Tango sounds like a fruity cocktail or a gelato flavour, not the color of a big, butch Jeep.

For example looking at other other bright colors they offer the Wrangler in, notice that it's "Detonator Yellow", "Flame Red" or "Rescue Green, and not "Baby Duck Lemon", Frosty Sapphire Pearl" or "Bloody Mary Red".
