Nice looking truck. Beige best (Adobe), followed by silver, white, red and gray.

I like the spectrum you have going there. I will second that.

White is usually pretty good for hiding dirt

Silver or beige. Ive owned about every color over the years and I like silver the best. The best way to judge is washing a vehicle comparing the before and after results. I always used to hate silver as it didnt look much better after a good washing. Any light color beige is good also but personally not as classy looking, too old timer for me.

Silver by far. My dad has an 05 tan and my brothers 03 is white and my silver looks better much longer. All 3 of us rarely drive on pavement much so it's a good indication. Second choice would be pale adobe though.

On another note, it also depends on the color of your dirt/gravel

You guys are all wrong! Silver still shows dirt. My sterling grey on the other had has gone months without a wash and covered in dirt and dust. You can't even tell. It looks clean. I work in construction so I have drive down dirty roads. My truck is dirty right now, been 3 weeks since I washed it. Ill take a picture when I get home.

I have or had Ingot silver, sterling grey, race red, maroon, dk pearl blue, green, light blue, black and beige.

Ingot silver is best with beige( pale adobe) a close second.

My vote is silver or adobe. I own a white and a black vehicle. This also will be my last black vehicle. It always looks dirty and I can see every scratch it has.

White hides the dirtiness of a vehicle really well BUT imo shows things like mud the most. Idk if this makes sense.
