Medium sapphire blue?

Dodge had a deep mid blue, they called ''ULTRA BLUE.''

Seeing a sideview on a computer and seeing the truck outside on a bright day are two different dimensions.

My 2011 Colorado was close to that and gm called it aqua blue metallic

Unfortunately everyone's computer is going to show the color differently than your eyes viewed it. Your best bet is to go used car shopping as it is a late model multi-stage color. Or find a huge parking lot and cruise around until you find a comparable color.

Good luck

2002 Z06 Corvette Electron Blue would be in the ball park. IMHO

Thanks for everyone’s input I’m going to do some searching for pictures of those colors online and see if I can locate one to look see in person at a local car lot.

There are paint sample books, you might check automotive paint stores.

1996 to 2013 viper blue paint code is sbe . It was on only vipers from 1996 to 2013

If thinking either Admiral blue or the viper blue will be my choice looking to see if I can find one locally to see in person.

I saw a very new Honda about that shade today, really close. It looked really nice.

I was going to say Honda Also. There’s one down the street and I love it
And I like Blues. This is my truck Dark Poly Blue from the PPG book. Supposed to be factory color code

Nice! I would like for my truck to be the dark blue like from '71, but I ain't going there with a new paint job.

2016 honda accord still night pearl.

One of coworkers drives one. He's been off for a couple weeks and is back today. Seeing his car reminded me of your thread.

I'd go with Corvette Laguna Blue used on 2014-2016 C7 Vette. Earlier years used a Laguna Blue, but much different

That’s a tad too dark for ABM.

ABM is bad ass color though, and would look great on a 67-72. My 3,000 mile 2010 Camaro SS in ABM.

Vette laguna blue and jet stream blue are both really good looking colors too.

I think the truck in question might be GM Hyper blue metallic.

Check out the New Jeeps. One passed by me the other day and it was a Brilliant Blue almost Fluorescent

There are some crazy cool vehicle colors out there these days. I shudder to think what it costs to repaint them. I'm an old-school single-stage lacquer fan, personally. #Dinosaur

I also caught a glimpse of one the other day I plan on hitting the local Jeep dealership to catch a better look.
