Tank color

I just ordered my 2 door Sport (my very first Wrangler and I'm very excited).
I have until Monday to decide on a color.
I was leaning toward Anvil, but the dealer was showing me the swatch for the new tank color. Who can tell what a little square of color will look like as a car?? Has anyone seen one in tank on the internet anywhere?
Been searching high and low...

Thanks for the pics!
I was thinking since it seems like they're not going to make granite this year tank might be very similar. It looked pretty close to granite on the swatch the dealer showed me, but I see more green in these pics. Hmmm anvil or tank…

Here is a pic from Jeep of the Hard Rock in Tank...
Thanks!
That's a really clear shot if it. Looks pretty but very green. I think I'm going to go with anvil.
Now I wish Jeep would hurry up and build it!

One more question, though I'm sure there's probably a thread on this:
What is the best brand of lock to keep the spare from getting knicked?

The gorilla lugs are nice but the keys are not unique. I've had multiple sets and the lock key works for all of them each has a different code depending on your thread pattern ie. Honda to Chevy or something long those lines. It's secure to a point. Just adding that little tidbit of knowledge :)

Nice! My Tank is arriving on 10/7! I'm still a little iffy on the color, though. At this point, it don't have a choice!

My Rubicon in tank showed up a few days ago :)

This is the best colour ever (in my opinion) for Jeep, especially with the saddle interior, it's really close to what I wanted to paint my old Scramblers in. It's almost like the cactus that my Liberty came in, only no pearlescence (is that a word?) in other words, no fine metallic flakes, but it's a little like the cactus pearl coat on the first generation liberty without the pearl :)

I've only had mine a week, but I get all sorts of comments. Look, there are lots of colors out there. The new Hydro is so nice and the yellow can look good. Anvil is growing on me and I originally tried to get Granite before I knew about Tank. But IMHO, there is something just so right about Tank, I am so glad they added it for the year. Perfect pair for the saddle.

I love the tank. If it had been an option in 14 I made have been swayed.

For those that have seen Tank in person. I am impressed with many of the Tank pictures I have seen because it looks to be pretty dark, however, some of the photos I have seen make it look very light olive (i.e. Commandoish). No offense to the Commandos, but I am not a fan of light olive green and did not like the 2013 color Commando Green at all. I liked the 2008 color Jeep Green, the 2012 color Natural Green Pearlcoat, and the old TJ color Moss Green. I am also a fan of the Carc green that the military uses which Tank appears to emulate in some photos. Is Tank my color? Is anyone who has seen it in person disappointed and feel it should be darker?
