So today I'm going into the GMC dealer to have a talk with one of the salesman there about getting into a new Sierra. I'm looking at a 1500 Crew cab in either white or red. Im pretty torn between the two colors and not really sure what one to go with, any one got any opinions? And is there anything else i should know about before going in such as problems people have had with their trucks or anything to lookout for? This probably isn't a huge deal with a new truck, but i always like to be as informed as possible. Any information is greatly appreciated!

There is only one choice if you want the best looking color, and that is BLACK!!! Why do I own a gray one you ask? Because I am way too lazy to keep black clean. Gray is a good compromise to have a truck that looks clean most of the time.

 

Between red or white? My vote goes to red. White looks like a fleet vehicle. You will probably get flagged down by someone who needs his furnace repaired... :D

Red is way cooler than White.

 

I've got to agree. NOTHING beats a red truck, period. Not even black, IMHO. And my truck's white... go figure. I'm wishing more and more I'd held out for a red one. May have to trade again. :D

 

Whatever the color, if you like it, it's all good.

Yeah black does look nice but I'm probably gonna be using it to haul a lot of stuff this summer for a landscaping job and on top of getting dirty if it gets scratched it will really stand out. I really liked the white at first but once I saw it in person I thought it does look a bit like a fleet vehicle. Don't get me wrong, they can definitly look really nice but I think that the red just looks a little sharper. Oh and i see your from Minnesota, me to. I'm heading into walser tonight, where'd you pick up your truck from?

 

Oh and controller, i definitly agree, white can look really nice, and i'm planning on putting a tonnue cover on it as well as a carriage works grill and some other things, but I think i'm leaning towards red. Such a tough decision :sigh:

White Bear Lake Superstore. Order a GMC Sierra All Terrain and I will give you my CW grill for your chrome 4-bar GMC grill that comes with that pkg. :sigh:

 

Also, if you prefer 20" wheels and the truck you choose does not have them, let me know, mine are going up for sale this spring.

It's the best color on earth! Why would anybody want anything else? :sigh:

 

Next you need a RED BOAT!

Yeah I'm starting to think red more and more.

 

Nice truck, something similar to that but an 08 Sierra Crew

I've always loved red trucks. My wife likes them too.

 

Red is sort of one of those "love it or hate it" colors. Many people don't like it at all. To me silver, white, etc is just not me. Black is nice but way too hard to keep for me... that and I've ended up wrecking every black truck I ever owned. Never had a wreck in a red truck.

Well if those are the 2 choices :D R E D....for sure.

 

I think I have owned every color Chevy up till 07. I walked up and down that lot 50 times deciding this time, it was between the new brown and the dark blue...I went with the dark blue, love it.

 

But yes, I had a white Z71 and a red one after that, loved the red.

No offense to anyone, but I never understood why anyone would buy a brown (turd colored) truck. Unless your like 80 or something, but even then, dark blue is a better "Old Geezer" color.
