Yeah, thats a big problem. GM only. Ford IS better than dodge or toyota though......

Nice truck. I have the same one, not 4x4 but, has a really sweet duramax diesel engine and Allison tranny.
I cant see ever working out of a van again....ever!

I knew someone would say that. Ford vans are great and as far as 3/4 ton or bigger trucks look at how many guys are using them.

That's half the reason I bought it. I love the color. In fact I just ordered ladder racks and I'm having them paint them the same color.

Great looking truck and I am glad your keeping the color.

It seems every trade truck in New England is plain white. :roll:

Even if I didn't like the color I have to think that it would cost a boatload of $$ to get it painted and being that it is brad new it would seem to be money wasted.

The reality is I have to match my work shirts and eyes. :grin:

Mr. Sparky is useing red trucks now ( looks to much like a fire truck for me ) but the blue should letter out nice.

The only reason that fleet vehicles were white is to keep the dealer from having to keep 10 different colors in stock. White being a neutral color was a compromise much like painting a house in neutral colors to put it on the market. Most fleet vehicles end up with lettering & logo anyway.

Nice Truck. Good Luck in 08.

Another, practical reason is that white reflects heat better than the darker colors and here in the SW in summer, every little bit helps. Sweet truck nonetheless. Hope it brings great luck in '08.

white also hides dirt better than a dark color...
