I know that red will surpass other favorite truck colors and that's fine, but for those of us looking for something different--what other colors would you vote for as your favorite? (It doesn't have to be an original color)

Dark blue
Silver
Light blue
Dark green
Black
Light green
White
Hugger orange
whatever? :bowtie:

I'm partial to Medium Blue or Hugger Orange myself.

I'm leaning towards Gunmetal Grey for mine.

Here's a sample

I am thinking two tone, silver top, white bottom, one band of flames breaking the two colors up starting from the eyebrow moldings and going around and meeting on the tailgate....................... I am working on this sketch this week............JB

for mine im going for a two tone light silver with metallic flake on top and then black on bottom, with black racing stripes and ghost flames.

silver kicks ass, i really like that gunmetal grey as well. what are you putting that on, jay-dawg?

Have you seen that new grey/silver on that new little Honda convertible. I don't know the name of the car, but that color is great.

Also, Acura has a great dark blue color. It looks almost navy in the shade, but when the sun hits it is incredible. Great color.

Well, I found the pic while I was brainstorming for my s10, but it will surely look great on the old steel.
I was hoping to go a darker shade than on the new vipers:

My color scheme will be Black engine bay with lots of chrome and dodge metallic gray exterior. Keep the handles, relocate gas tank, clear tails. The cockpit will probably be black as well with some chrome trim pieces. Let's call it "classic steel" scheme. lol

A boy can dream cant he?
