Really wish I didn't have black. It looks the best when its cleaned up, but it stays that way for a couple days. I wish I had the blue/tan Lariat. Always loved that color because my dad had that scheme on his old Expedition.

I love my black. Ya it sucks to keep clean but I use speed Wax. 30 minutes and your truck is shiny again and waxed. Looks great every time and It doesn't need a wash every time

I agree with the black. I love mine when I'm done waxing it, but after a few days its back to normal - spotty. I found Maguires yellow wax to work the best at least for my black. I've tried them all. Nothing looks better than a shiny black truck after its been washed and waxed. I'm kinda a clean freak, so I wax once a month (maybe a couple times a month) but I live in Ft Lauderdale and the heat/rain is he'll on wax

Mines bright *** fire engine red, and I love it. My trucks big, loud, and sexy as hell. Now if I could get it a little higher to squeeze 37"s that would be awesome.

I never know how often I'm supposed to wax. I try and wash every other weekend, or if I'm able to once a week

Nope, my truck is my favorite color, if I had to get another color it would be black with tan bottom. Love that combo
