No.
Im a Raiders fan and my truck is blue. My car is black, but not because of my team.
Now i did laugh a little when i found out that RaiderH8r's truck was silver, and shes a Chargers fan. But i bet she doesnt pick her colors cause of the team either.

I don't pick my colors based on my team.....HOWEVER, there are certain colors out there that I find myself reacting negatively to based on my team and its rivals....So in a roundabout way I may shy away from certain colors or color combos due to a disliking of a rival team. For instance....I would buy a navy blue truck but I would be hesitant to own a navy blue and silver truck...and I'd buy a black truck...but would not be keen on black and gold (if that were an option). Make sense?
Its kind of one of those things though...The way it works a lot of times is that if you are a diehard fan of a team, those colors kinda become your favorite color over time (if its not some awful color like green and yellow or something)....This being taken into account I think a lot of people buy trucks with colors that often coincide with their team and don't even think about it. Now this I believe is true for diehard fans...not necessarily those who simply "like" their local team.

Although, I love it when someone buys the truck color of their team because all of their associated decals and license plates go with it so well. At the last apt complex I lived at there was a 04-08 maroon FX2 with a big maroon FL St decal on the back. Hate that team, but the truck went well together. There's a really cool looking 04-08 red truck on here that has GA stuff all over it. Again, hate that team but the truck just went together well.

I love the Broncos, but I could never drive an orange and blue truck (Unless of course it's the new Boss 302, orange on that car is sick *******!). I absolutely HATE the Raiders, but I love grey/silver and black trucks.
Haha RaiderH8r is a Chargers fan but she's sporting Raiders colors. Poor girl, I feel her pain

No offense to the guy who bought the steelers wrapped f150, but I didnt think it made the truck look good. Even if the wrap was done by professionals, over time it will rip and discolor, and it is not as simple as just taking it off. I also hope he gets it serviced at a dealer other than the one he bought the truck from....
