Dodge had a specialty color that was somewhat like this - a purple blue
black color that changed depending on what angle you looked at the truck
from - i was actually trying to find a dakota in that color but i was told
by the dealer that it was a special order only made in 99...

We saw a Ram at Carliel (remember this guy, Tim?) who had the entire truck,
including the engine bay *and frame*, done in that flip-flop paint. I
thought it
was an eyesore myself. Must be nice to be able to blow $20,000 on a paint
job (I
did hear that number spoken when I was looking at it).
