'I Don’t Know To Like It Or To Not Like It:' Woman Says She Gets 'So Much' Attention After Buying This Jeep
"We don’t identify as ‘car.'"
A new mom stands in a parking lot next to her vehicle. As her long brown hair blows in the breeze, she confesses that she wasn’t ready for all the attention her new Jeep Wrangler Sahara would get.
“Like yesterday, I went to the car wash and all the workers were like [whisper-shout-voice] ‘what color is this? I’ve never seen this color before,’” says @trapgirl_nation.
Her TikTok video has garnered more than 178,000 views because it seems everyone wants to peep the Jeep with the foggy-bright paint job.
What color is it? Initially she told the car wash “blue.”
Then she changes it. “I dunno, green?” she says it with a small smile.
Her secret? Her Jeep’s color is really unusual.
A little web sleuthing suggests that it’s the gray-blue, tealish, sometimes skyish blue color Jeep is calling Earl Gray.
“I never seen it before either, that’s what made me get it” says trapgirl in response to online onlookers.
A Unique Color

Trapgirl says she feels like the car was made for her. “It was sitting right there, waiting on me,” she says of when she spotted it on the lot.
She says its color makes people in the street literally stop, point, and stare. At one point in her video a man can be heard off camera exclaiming over the color.
That elusive gray-green/blue-gray/mintish shade is like a reflection of sky and clouds. As a standalone color gray represents “good taste” via restraint, explains art writer Mira Schor.
Adobe says the color can be calm and nuanced, “offering the best of white’s optimism with black’s profound absorption.”
The Camaraderie of the Jeep
Among Jeep drivers, there’s a kind of informal fellowship. As they drive around, there’s often intra-vehicular acknowledgement. Sometimes it’s a simple head nod, other times a flashed peace symbol. And still others leave small rubber duckies for fellow drivers in a game called Duck Duck Jeep.
That connection is tangible in the comments section of trapgirl’s TikTok.
“Welcome to the Jeep family,” says @Tay baby. Before she offers a piece of taxonomic advice, “but we don’t identify as ‘car’ WE identify as “JEEP.”
“Noted,” replies trapgirl.
Others discussed the color. “I just ordered a 2026 rubicon but I thought about getting that color,” says @kentkilla.
While other commenters posted images of their vehicles including @Lex’s berry-pink colored baby (probably the Tuscadero PHP shade).
@Anabel sums up the Jeep appeal, saying, “Ppl won’t understand until they get one. JeepFam 4 life.”
