What are the colors you like?

We really can't tell you waht color to paint it.. that's a hugely personal issue. I would say Black, Red, or Dark Gray because that is what I like.

Pink


















with yellow polka dots :D









seriously, it's all up to you, IF you're redoing your interior too it's whatever color you can think of, If your not, then something that won't clash with it would be sensible.

My truck is white and tan, with a green interior. (The truck was originally green. Somebody repainted it.) I have a number of thing for the interior that are red, like carpet, arm rests, etc. I plan to use them, too. Gonna look like Christmas in there.
I like to think of it as my tribute: http://www.redgreen.com/ :lol:
But, hey! It's MY truck!

Yea, but pink with yellow polka dots would make it easier for Smokey Bear to spot and for me to get extra business. Help support your local police (break the law and keep us employed) :twisted:

Throught deductive reasoning and high school smarts I hypothesisi that you will paint it hot pink or purple. :P

Nobody wants a persian orange truck spartman :lol: . Oliver green is out of the question because they used like a million different shades. And John Deere greens out because John Deere sucks and they used more than 1 shade of green.

I like bright colors and metallic colors. I've thought about cherry red for my dodge (so like in 20 years it will be done). Other things to consider is are you leaving chrome on the truck or not. One day when I get mine done I want it to be lightning yellow.
