I think its ok, if you like purple. there isnt many purple trucks, so it might stick out, just my 2 cents

Looks almost blue in the right light. Some paints fade into their permanent color in the sunlight (UV rays). Also primer coating color can have minor effect. Purple? I don't know, but it's a heck of a lot better than a red turned pink! Maybe ask if the paint will turn or ask why it maybe didn't at the store. If they f'd it up - get what you wanted.
