Yes, glad you brought this up. My Dodge has the 3 color scheme and most Chevys do also, but there is a National Guard armory nearby and I noticed that everything is painted the four color scheme. Desert sand being the 4th color. I am wondering why the tan color is not on the current NATO scheme. Anyone out there know the answer or rationale behind this?
