Question Green color not in brochure or on Dodge website

Just curious, why do I see green 3500s but Dodge doesn't have that color in the brochure or on their web site? Anybody got a guess?

Timberline Green

Someone mentioned that on DTR earlier in the year. Here's a link.WANTED! Pictures to help me decide on a color
Early 2004 models Timberline Green was available on the web site but apparently has been removed since. My dealer had a couple of green 2003's even in last November.

Graphite Metallic Clear Coat still appears on the Dodge web site.

A color I did not notice before when I placed my order is the

Deep Molten Red Pearl Coat




I would find it hard to believe that they would dump the Graphite since it's the third most popular color ordered.

Not on a 3500 will you find graphite grey.

There's only like about 4 basic colors for the 3500's to order for '04.5, black,white,silver,and garnet red, so sez 2 dealers I've talked to.

My mistake I finally got a real live RAM Truck brochure and it has the Green. BTW a dealer in San Diego said you can't get the dually in Green, well they have one right down the road from me at the local dealer. Any way the Commercial Brochure does not have Green at all but the regular Ram brochure does. Now if I could just get my hands on one of those Mopar Truck Accessories Brochures I would have it made.

rkelso98] which dealer did you go to? I got my truck from Carl Burger Dodge. Mine is a '01, dark green (I assume Timberline Green). They have a thing for the diesel trucks there. The sell a lot of diesel trucks. They are just off of I-8 near El Cajon - La Mesa area. You didn't say if you were looking for a new truck or not. If you are looking for one PM me.

jrs I visited Carl's, and Roncho's and Hine's? So I don't remember which one thought you couldn't get it. BTW Gordie (Asst. Mgr.) at Carl's seemed to be the straight shooter of the bunch. He told me flat out he couldn't meet my deal and told me to try Kellogg (dave smith's). Right now I have a deal in the works with Tom at Lou Fusz at 3% under invoice + trucks are $500 cheaper from the get go than on the East Coast. Tom (tomeygun) is a member so I count on him treating me right.

Hmmm. I don't remember a Gordie. I do remember a guy named Gary that worked with me on my deal. The salesman was a guy named Frank. They went out of their way to find me a diesel truck. I got a good deal on my truck, and they were very honest. I left a happy customer. Good to hear you are getting a good deal.

Roadrunner, my 3500 was ordered in January In Graphite Metallic.

Buying in San Diego: Take a close look at Jack Powell Dodge in Escondido, my current 2500 and the 3500 on order came from them.
