Default UGLY color GM Truck

I saw this truck driving out on the freeway over the weekend. This has to be the nastiest factory color I've ever seen on a late model GM truck. It was a very pale yellow, almost tan, with hardly any gloss.

Anyone ever seen another GM truck this color? It wasn't a business truck from what I could tell. Yuck.

I saw a pastel orange 2003 silverado Z71 this weekend. I don't this it was a custom paint job since it still had all factory mouldings and badges. I'd put this orange one up against your yellow one for the ugliest color.

Tony, I've seen a truck just like that except it is a Z71.... <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />

My nomination for the "Ugliest color on a late model truck" award is the 2003 2500HD crewcab 4x4 shortbed that I saw last week. It was painted this color:

I have seen some street rods painted tan/off-white and pale yellow and they don't look too bad. Usally street rods have better paint than the factory. Nice to see some variety in available colors, tired of red, black, blue, white,& pewter-see those colors everywhere.
By the way, my truck is RED! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />

BigTex, I saw another bright pastel orange HD2500 crew cab today. It was one of our Houston Public Works dept. trucks at a construction zone downtown. I'd rather have that color than ugly ****-stain yello. LOL.
