Horrid New Color


Recommended Posts

Posted

Now I'm a GM guy through and through, but I would probably take an F150 over this thing!

 

ps. Truck color was called 'Doeskin Tan' on the sticker. There was also one with some funky 'Woodland Green' a few trucks down that I've never seen before, but nowhere near as ugly as this.

Just noticed....no factory door moldings either which used to indicate those SEO type work trucks...but these were optioned up LT2s with leather, auto HVAC, and a 38k price sittin on the new car lot. Weird.

Yep,those colors have been around for years,they are "SEO" colors,or "special equipment option",they also do not come with side-mouldings,and any plastic "soft parts" (IE-door handles,fascias,trim,etc) are Black and not painted.

There are Wheatland Yellow,Woodland Green,Tangier Orange,and Doeskin Tan. There are also quite a few other colors available as well,but those are the four main ones.

 

Heres some info.from the order guide.....

 

Special Paint, Solid, one color

 

All normally body colored non-sheet metal parts will be flat Black.

 

 

 

Includes flat Black door handles and mirrors. Deletes

 

 

standard/packaged body-side moldings

Doeskin tan? Looks like pink to me. NOT a good color for a truck regardless IMO. Woodland Green I would like to see, I've seen some variations of that color, curious how it turned out on a truck.

Just so you guys know,although they can be ordered for any type of order,those colors are really meant for fleet orders.....townships,citys,municipalities,etc.

For example here in Pa. the transportation dept. (PennDOT) orders trucks in Wheatland Yellow,and the game commission orders trucks in Woodland Green.

Here you go...scroll down a little and you'll find both the Doeskin and the Woodland.

Not sure why these trucks, appearantly meant for regular consumer stock, were ordered in the funky municipality/fleet colors. I bet somebody will get one helluva deal on these 2 leftovers in the coming year.

I was thinking GM should have more color options for trucks but that ain't what I had in mind!

These colors have been around since at least the 70's like Rich said they are for fleet's some Utility co. use the doeskin tan. You just don't usually see them on the lot for consumer purchase. Apperantly someone at that dealership thought they needed more color choices and ordered a few in. no big deal to me, I don;t have to buy it or worse try and sell it. But I bet someone will like it and buy...There have been uglier color combinations out there then that.

 

Seen a nightrace blue corvette with red interior, WTF? Looks horrible to me but somone will buy it.
