The best looking Dodge that I have ever seen is owned by a buddy of mine.

It is an '01 Quad Cab Short Bed in the color Mineral Grey Metallic and has a 6-speed manual tranny with BFG ATs.

It also has the Sport package with cloth interior.

If anybody has anything like this (mineral grey metallic shortbed truck) please post pictures.

I know the truck doesent have many modifications on it, but call me simple if you want. It just really appeals to me for some reason.

Mineral Grey or Graphite Metallic as it was later called was a 1/2 year color only for Sports in 01 and then only available on SLT's before it was dropped entirely.I seen 1 of those on a dealers lot back in 01 and as it was unloaded they hung a "sold" tag on it and it was never seen again.It was a sweet color in a Sport.......Andy

That sure is one nice looking truck. Kinda inspired me to go that route. But then again, I like the heavy duty look too. Not sure which way I'll go...

Same color my Talon was back in the day....was and still is my favorite automotive color. You guys wouldn't believe how sharp that colors is when the sun hits it just right...

Not the exact same color but this is my 94....

I like the other paint color for sure. Might have to repaint it very soon...!!!

West Coast, what color is your truck? It looks like the same as my 01.
Nice truck btw.

My 02 Dakota 4 door 4x4 SLT+ was the Graphite Grey color.
I really liked the color of it. I bought it because of that color.

I would like to paint my 97 4x4 Extended Cab that color someday.

WestCoast,
Didnt you pay something like $300 for that paintjob, if I remember right?

My 01 crew cab GMC was storm gray. I looked for my truck for almost two years and was hoping to find a grey or Patriot blue one. I settled on an Arctic white one and have only ever seen 1 grey Sport and a few grey quads here and there. I really dig that color on the 2nd gens!

West Coast

dieselman you are correct..... $300 big ones. I am getting ready to completely re-do the interior with all leather and paint the truck again. I am selling all my hot rods to make my 94 a little nicer.....lol... My wife keeps telling me to go a buy a new or newer CTD but I actually love my old CTD. I don't think I will ever sell my 94....

Amen to that! I love my truck. New trucks are nice no doubt, but something I just like more about my 'ole 12v.

The 'Graphite Pearl Metallic' was ONLY available in an '02 model year for the pickups. I ordered my '02 in July of '01 (Sept. '01 build) in that color because I saw the color on a new '01 Durango (first year for Dodge and that color) and loved it. This is how I know.

I agree with ya man, I dont ever plan on selling mine. I'll probably keep running her everyday for 9 or 10 more years up to about 500k miles then put it in the garage and start restoring it. Maybe by that time dodge will get smart and start putting 12v's back in their trucks again. Theres just something about a 12v.
Keep us posted on your progress with it, I saw the pics of your 66 impala and it looked sweeeet!!!!!! I'm sure it will turn out awesome
