    I friggin love the way this looks. A very good paint job would probably be 8 to 10 grand up here in snow country but this looks wicked good.

    I remember seeing that faded look a lot in the 90's. Maybe it's making a comeback.

    Absolutely beautiful. I have never seen one with that kind of paint job where I live.

    First thing I thought of when I saw the truck. Brings back my childhood.

    I've never been a fan of aftermarket paint and/or fades like that. Combined with the chrome, I think it just looks cheap, cheesy, and "everybody look at me" type of flashy. Just my .02. But I do agree with going the route of a wrap. Then in 3 years if you don't like it anymore or ready for a change, it's doable over repainting for 10k

    Reminds me of the Southern Coach edition that GMC and Chevy trucks/SUVs years ago. Some of them looked amazing!

    I saw one of these in a parking lot the other day. It's not something I'd buy, but I thought it was pretty cool... For a Chevy.

    Retro look is pretty cool, but not $60k cool.

    I know it’s to much bling but for some reason that truck takes me back to when I was a kid watching this tv show........ nowhere similar paint but this truck from the fall guy was bad ass.

    Loved watching that show as a kid! Don't really remember what the show was about but loved the truck stunts. That and Dukes of Hazzard and A-Team had great vehicle scenes.

    Probably influenced my first truck purchase, which was an '86 ck2500. Still wish I had one.
