What does it look like?

Ok, currently I'm driving a older truck that is not very flashy, but gets the job done. I'm about two days from pulling the trigger on a 2011 250 Lariat with 20's. We are in ready-mix concrete, and heavy highway construction, and I'm worried that pulling up to a customers job with this huge new truck will put a bad taste in their mouths (were paying a high price so he can drive that nice truck.) But i'm the type of person to be proud of our beautiful trucks, and the pride of my last name on the side of the vehicle. Also, when we have sub contractors pull up on our highway jobs in nice trucks, I feel proud to have nice equipment on the job.

I guess if you were my customer, what would you feel like if I were to pull up to your job in a new truck? Or if any of you are in my shoes, how do you deal with it?


FYI- I am a very humble person, and very lucky to have what I have. The reason I go to customers is to let them know that without them, I would not be successful.
