speaking of two-tone

I know there was a red and white (we had two back on the farm) and blue and silver (got one now) available. What other options were there? I was thinking of dressing the Cummins up like the Palomino options that were available in the late 70s (one year only, maybe 2, not many made), then I was thinking of the blue and silver like the half tonner I got, then I saw another red and white, and thought it would be cool to one day have a fleet and use all the 2-tone options that were available.

So, what were the options for these trucks in 2-tone?

my '91 250 came from the factory with a tan and brown two tone paint job.
The original owner paid $310 extra for two-tone paint.

OK, red/white, blue/silver, brown/tan. Looks like I'll need another truck.

I wonder if that's the same calf-crap brown my grandpa's old 70s model ram that I can barely remember was.

Green and tan would be odd looking. I would think.

There was white/silver? Or was it white/gray?

The green/tan and maroon/gold combos are the best looking two tones IHMO.

I like the red/white, the silver/gray, maroon/gold, blue/silver, and the green/tan isn't bad. I don't think I will be buying that many trucks though. Black just doesn't work for me on these trucks.

Ritchie, any idea on what was done to that one with the hi-lift? I wouldn't try to move anything heavy with it.

Not sure where I stole the picture from. I don't keep track of where they come from. I think that real tall lifted dually was on ebay and thats where I got the pics.

I was always fond of the Copper/ Sandstone combo with the tan interior.

Like the one in my Avatar?

Don't know what I'm going to do with 'Gramps' as I just bought a 2011 2500 Laramie with a 6.7 yesterday.....
