Boss,
No disrespect intended, but you don't seem to be seeing the main comment here. Any "quote" you get here is totally meaningless. The only way you'll know a price, or even a range for the price is to take your truck to the guy(s) you choose to paint it, talk through the process in detail - what you'll do, what you expect them to do, etc - and get a written quote. Painting the same color should save some money, as jambs, under hood, etc likely won't be sprayed unless you're wanting that done for a better, more consistent color match. Bill, who runs a shop, said it pretty clearly:

That is the only way I do estimates, no baloney with talking about a price over the phone with a vehicle owner too damn lazy to get his butt in the seat and drive down to my shop.......

Again, no disrespect meant, but you've already got pricing ranging from $2000 to $25000 from this discussion.
