I recently got my 2014 Z71 Double Cab Sierra in the Cobalt Blue. I really wanted this color in the All Terrain model, but that was one of the 3 colors the AT didn't come in unfortunately. I've also heard the Cobalt Blue is done after 2014. A GM rep told me the new blue color coming out is a little bit lighter.

 

Anyways, I'm very happy with my truck so far. I get lots of compliments on the color. When the sun is directly on it, it almost pops out like an electric blue. This Sierra has the Cocoa Dune interior and I've added a Leer 700 Series Tonneau cover to it. The 700 Series is molded to match the lines of the hood. In the rear photo, you can see the two raised "humps" on the cover. I had this same model cover on my 2005 Silverado and it was great. Color match is perfect, and I never had any issues with water or moisture inside.

I'm really frustrated they aren't offering this color for the 2015s. I went and test drove one today and unfortunately it had that vibration problem many people have in the problems subforum. I mean maybe the deep ocean blue will be similar or nicer but this is a real bummer.

I couldn't find a good picture of deep ocean blue metallic. This web page has it listed with a picture.

Thanks man. Suck there are no real pictures out there. I was just at a different dealership and he said it would be closer to the blue granite metallic. If it is similar to that pic it wouldn't be bad because that is almost the same as blue topaz/cobalt.

 

I'm wondering if it will be a bit lighter closer to this, similar to that blue the ford trucks. This wouldn't be too bad.

I'm new to the forums here. Can anybody link me to discussions of this "Vibration" problem?

 

Thanks

If you put what you are looking for in the search bar usually it will point you in the right direction, or just type something like 2014 vibration GM Trucks into the Google search bar and that usually works also
