sounds to me like there are alot of lazy people. Trucks, cars, vans etc need upkeep no matter what color. Alot of stupid complaints about being lazy. GET OFF YOUR BUTTS AND CLEAN YOUR VEHICLES!!!!!! Do alittle work.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I didn't buy silver because I'm lazy. I bought it because I thought it looked best, and I knew it wouldn't show scratches. I don't care how well you take care of a black truck, you'll see EVERY imperfection on it. My silver truck has imperfections, but its extremely hard to see.

With black, you can wash and wax it, drive down the street, and you'll be able to see the dust on it.

I agree silver is the best. Obviously I feel that way, that is why I bought mine. 2nd silver truck in a row. The only thing I would have considered outside silver was the dark grey metalic.

No more modifications for this Viper, GEN I will pull more money for stock form in the near future :)

Now, someday, if I get Viper 2, it will be for something like that. Better doing serious performance mods to a GTS than a RT10. But chances are that will not happen. I have lots of cars I want to own before I die, can not afford to start a collection of any one car. My insanely fast car will probably be a blown Chevelle with a 502 :)

For the price of a Hennessy Viper, you could buy A LOT of other cars.

Many Viper owners bolt on Roe superchargers, about 10K.

Silver yaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! Black is great. Yes it shows imperfections but this goes with I said earlier. Work to keep it up or fix the imperfections. If you drive a beater than buy the color that doesn't matter if it's clean or not. SILVER

You can spend your money on fixing the imperfections, I'll spend mine on actually upgrading the truck

And I highly doubt an 04 QC Hemi 4x4 with the Offroad Package is a beater.

Maybe not a beater but when someone with a black vehicle has it all clean and detailed ....put it next to a silver one and see which one gets noticed. When my black truck is clean I get asked if I just waxed it. Silver is never exciting even when clean. Dirty or clean it looks the same.

i agree, i like the look of a nice clean black truck better, but its only clean about 1 every 2-3 weeks for about 2 days

I like Green the best on any truck but since I am considering ordering the Night Runner package on my next truck I would have to say I like Black too!

Hey all.

New to the forum, just purchased an 04 Ram 1500 qc hemi, and it's black. Had twelve thousand miles on it, driven on weekends by an old man, and is in pristine shape.
Now, as for the color, it wasnt my first choice, but I couldnt afford a brand new ram at what they are going for now.
I have to admit, it is very sharp, but it's also still very clean from the dealer, I'll let ya know in a year if I think black is very good, or very bad.

Timmay!!
