Plus growing up my family had two Suburbans of that era where the mid panel was wood grain. Because of that I had no problem picturing what your truck would look like and it really looks good. I look forward to see what comes next. Plus, I got to say that the one-year-only ochre inside stripe on the trim is what seals the deal. The black, the stainless, the ochre, then the wood... It does it just right.
Your are spot on. I had seen several version of my rendering by Joseph Durant. He really liked the woodgrain version and did a dozen or so. I agree that the ochre trim color really completes the package.
