2026 Silverado 1500 color choices

[Amherst RST]

Looking for a list of paint color choices for 2026 Silverado 1500. I have a 2019 which is North Sky Blue and I get so many compliments. PLEASE BRING BACK NORTH SKY BLUE

They went to Lakeshore blue which I also a beautiful shade of blue, what a great color. Now for 2025 we have only 1 blue choices and it is Smurf Blue??? Or costal blue I think they call it.

I personally will not purchase a truck that color. PLEASE bring back some normal blue colors!!

Wait for the 2027 truck which is due in 2026.  They cut the colors for 2025 and for 2026 because this generation of truck is done soon and it simplifies the production line.  

 

Also the blue left is called Riptide Blue on the Chevy.

Anyone have the production numbers by color?

 

This was a common argument for the Camaro while it was in production.  Those that wanted blue were very vocal, but it was one of least chosen colors.

GM likely has those numbers but unlike Corvette and Camaro, they don't seem to find their way out to the public.

I wish they would bring back the Silver Birch! Best color I've ever had to hide light dirt and pollen.

Car companies discontinue paint colors due to a variety of factors, primarily focusing on cost optimization and aligning with market preferences. Offering a wider range of colors increases manufacturing costs and complexity, while fewer colors allow for larger production runs and reduced expenses. Additionally, sales data and market trends influence color choices, with manufacturers often discontinuing colors that don't perform well or are deemed less desirable by consumers.

GM has the lamest color selection since the Model T.
