And why did you get that color?

 

Mine is Light Driftwood .

 

I bought my truck from original owner because of its condition not the color, There were a couple colors that I did not want though

 

I almost bought a very nice 97 with 4:11 gears

    Color of both of mine all depends on the season here lol. Lets just call it earthly. When I do my annual or biannual cleansing I find one is silver and one is Burgundy/silver two tone. Didn't buy

  • Mine should be $100 dollar bill green after all the money I've poured into it with more to follow.                                                        Little Salmon Campground in Rig

  • 2002 2500 is Patriot Blue Metallic. In the process of being two-toned. Dark gray on top, Blue on the bottom. 2000 1500 Sport is Forest Green Pearl. Don't mind the silver bed. Had some minor

Patriot blue pearl over silver. Liked the colors when I saw it and it had the options I wanted and could afford. Bought it new in October of 01.

2002 is maroon and the truck was in my price range. Bought it new on my birthday on October. 26, 2002 paid rough 32,000 for.

 

1996 Is red in color. Very pretty looking truck and was my first truck I bought. I was a Gasser fan liked the old 360 CID design.

Forlorn old grave .... found it out in a meadow in west central Alberta

Didn't buy either for the color the color came with the good to me deal I found when I bought them.

Mine is Patriot blue, or as I call it, anti-terrorist blue.  Color isn't a huge issue for me when shopping for vehicles but I am sick of brown, had 4 brown trucks, rather not have anymore. 

What I can't stand is red interior with white vehicle :sick:

2000 1500 Sport is Forest Green Pearl. Don't mind the silver bed. Had some minor over the passenger wheel and hated looking at it. I had this rust free bed stashed back for 5 years. Lol!

Is that your spary booth?

@GSP7 Local body shop in town. Yes that is the spray booth. He is my go-to paint guy.

Both mine are black so if there's thief around he'll steal other color first. Plus they hide better in dark.

Not that bad, at least you had good service in the middle of nowhere Idaho... :lmao:

Yeah, I heard the shop had full hook ups in the shade with a river to go fishing out back. Some long haired hippy guy did the work and there were fruit trees to eat off of. :clap:

   Off topic but that's quite a canoe you've got there.  How long is the boat and how much does it weigh with the trailer? 

@IBMobile to be honest I have no clue, it's my dad's boat he usually pulls it with his k2500 suburban if I go with i volunteer to pull it for him as my truck needs a workout once in a while lol. I think it's 28 foot formula with twin v8s if I remember I seen a sticker saying something like 8600lb or something, it looks bigger than it is. I'd say it's at 10k with trailer full of fuel, just a guess. My truck loves pulling it. We went to Mississippi, Lake Michigan, and around where we live, I don't think it's meant to be pulled around that much, them axles are only 5 lug (3500lb) each so I believe it's on the edge. I put all new bearings, breaks, po did tires, so far we did good, usually cruising at 65-70 mph. Probably should be going a bit slower, but my truck loves that speed or some reason.
