The 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 Will Lose These Two Paint Colors

The 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 stands as the sixth model year of the Bow Tie brand’s fourth-generation full-size pickup truck. GM Authority previously reported that two colors were no longer available for the 2023 Silverado 1500, and now, those same colors will not reappear for the 2024 model year.

Northsky Blue Metallic (color code GA0) and Sand Dune Metallic (GTL) will not be available for the 2024 Silverado 1500. Northsky Blue was available since the current-generation Silverado launched for the 2019 model year, while Sand Dune was introduced for the refreshed 2022 model year.

It’s worth noting that both colors will be indirectly replaced by the Lakeshore Blue Metallic (GXP) and Slate Grey Metallic (GNO) hues for the 2024 model year.

In case you missed it, the 2024 Silverado 1500 received a few notable updates for the new model year, including the introduction of the 3.0L I6 LZ0 turbodiesel Duramax engine to Silverado ZR2 trim level, the turbocharged 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine adopting the TurboMax name, and the new Midnight Edition Package. Notably, the new Midnight Edition Package is available on only Custom Trail Boss, LT Trail Boss, and High Country trim levels.

Under the hood, engine options include the turbocharged 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine, rated at 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque, the naturally aspirated 5.3L V8 L84 gasoline engine, rated at 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, the naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 L87 gasoline engine, rated at 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, and the 3.0L I6 LZ0 turbodiesel Duramax engine, rated at 305 horsepower and 495 pound-feet of torque.

Under the body panels, the Silverado rides on the GM T1 platform, while production of the 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 will kick off in July 2023. The light-duty Silverado is manufactured at the GM Fort Wayne plant in Indiana, the GM Oshawa plant in Canada, and the GM Silao plant in Mexico.

  1. I may not be a fan of those colors but maybe somebody is it’s getting to the point where these companies are just going to ask you to put your money on the table and then they’ll just give you what they want to give you we as consumers need to start standing up and demand we want or don’t pay

    1. Thats the way Toyota does it now. Take it or leave it.

  2. They just want to make 4 door 4 cylinder in white!

    1. Not for me! Mary better wake up and start listening to her customers instead of the government. GM needs new leadership.

      1. Yeah I am actually looking at a 2-door Bronco because GM refuses to build anything to compete with it and the Jeep, absolutely won’t drive an ex-Chrysler product.

    2. You can order from a palette of colors. However, for stock many dealers order white, because companies usually buy low end trucks and they buy white. That’s why the cheapest truck on the lot is usually white.

      1. Our most expensive truck on the lot is usually white as well……

  3. Sand Dune was way too limited to begin with. They didn’t really give it a chance on the Colorado or Silverado. Cacti Green, on the new Trax, would be a great color on the Silverado and Colorado. Vivid Orange Metallic and Rapid Blue would be eye catchers as well. They wouldn’t work for the Black and White crowd. However, some folks like to be different and stand out in a crowd.

    1. Cacti green , the Cool Grey that Subaru uses , as well as orange or a darker Blue would also be welcome on The Colorado.
      I want to order 1 but so many restrictions on the options .
      I have a 2016 Colorado 4dr with Z71 and AWD that I purchased new . I want to replace this with a new truck but the options to duplicate this are really hard. I not talking about the powertrain , mostly the interior features.
      This may well be my last new truck so I want to get the options I am looking for.
      Have had over 40 new GM cars and trucks since 1973

  4. Having a order for over 6 months, I guess you get what you get. Just heard that double cab GMC 2500 trucks are not going to be built currently. Amazing that no one knows what’s going on, between the deal and customer service

  5. Love Slate Gray

  6. Northsky blue was a great color. They need to bring some shade of green back

  7. Sand Dune…AKA beige
    I wonder how many people got duped by the clever naming? Apparently not enough, LOL

  8. Now that I hear that Northsky Blue is no longer, I won’t be ordering the 2024 that I was planning . Before long the only choice of colours will be black or white ! Wow how exciting!

    1. Black paint dries the fastest and white for company work trucks.

    2. I own a 2020 4×4 LTZ 6.2 with the Northsky blue metallic. Beautiful truck but in the dealer for repairs 5 times so far with only 24k on the clock. I Will probably switch back to Toyota next time. Much more reliable and as American as any of them these days. I will however keep my 72 Chevy short bed, it is better than any of them.

      1. For what it’s worth GM does not deserve our business. They just do not listen to what we want. All black 1500……how long before they FINALLY (2024) decided to make it…….but you cannot order it. When it comes …….only for High Country. Want a different hot color? Good luck. Auburn Metalic or Harvest Gold? Not available on their high end units! WTF? I’m willing to step up and pay the big bucks but I cannot get what I want….. I’m the one paying why can I not get the color I WANT?

  9. Would like to see Slate Gray for the 2024 1500 like they have for the HD trucks
