I thought maybe you had a real critical question, like is June the right month to buy another truck!
Thats not a question. I already know its a big emphatic YES!
Black is original but why not paint them the blue color?
I think GMC used an apple green as the original color, but dont hold me to that... And I doubt I could afford the blue color at this point. Maybe I ought to run down to the local place and see what colors are available...
Id like to keep with a neutral color that will look good against the faded red/rust color she currently wears, and the cool picture in my head that she'll eventually look like.
