Hope I'm not skipping 5 pages of responses, but I saw these purple trucks, every one a big block, in Saskatchewan only. I bought a Pontiac 2+2 from a guy with a 396 purple C10 that he later, unfortunately, drove drunk and killed someone with. At least he did time over it...
I've heard various theories as to why, like a fleet order that fell through, but don't know why Sask has them exclusively.
