The best choice I made (besides buying a Dodge). Always looks clean, can't see any scratches - you know the really fine scratches you get when washing or drying it over time?>>>>>>>>>> I hear what you are saying but silver is SO boring. I just traded in a silver PT for my Ram. I had the choice of any color and it was between red or blue, only dark blue though. I just didn't want another dark color, my Saturn is black and impossible to keep clean even an hour after I wash it. They had a vanilla which just didn't look right on a truck and a few shades of blue, grey and some metallic black. I do agree though, when shined up nicely the black looks awfully nice, but so does the crystal pearl red! _____________________________ 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Bighorn Edition Crystal Pearl Red, 5.7 Hemi, 17" chrome wheels, Wildcat M&S,Sirius, Nerf Bars, Line-X bedliner, chrome gas cover. 2006 Saturn Ion2 2004 DS650X Baja from Bombardier<atv> 2006 Outlander 800 V-twin EFI 4WD < (in reply to sandiegohemi) Post #: 47

Yes they are hard to keep clean, however, when they roll out of the car wash, there's nothing like it. Well worth the $17/wk. (in reply to boyd98) Post #: 53

LOL I see some very nice looking black trucks out there!  I guess since my Ram sits in the garage about 6 days a week the black wouldn't have been TOO bad to keep clean but I sure do get a LOT of compliments on my Red Ram.  _____________________________ 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Bighorn Edition Crystal Pearl Red, 5.7 Hemi, 17" chrome wheels, Wildcat M&S,Sirius, Nerf Bars, Line-X bedliner, chrome gas cover. 2006 Saturn Ion2 2004 DS650X Baja from Bombardier<atv> 2006 Outlander 800 V-twin EFI 4WD < (in reply to boyd98) Post #: 57

RE: Black looked so good at the time of purchase - woul... - 2/25/2007 1:13:13 PM    WagRam   Posts: 4 Joined: 2/3/2007 Status: offline I had a 2005 3500 Ram dually in black.  Yes, black is a pain, but when it is kept clean it looks fantastic.  If a good coat of wax ( I used liquid glass ) is added as soon as you get the truck...the scratches are far fewer, and dirty is easier to keep off.  I recently traded in my 05.  ( I didn't need the 3500 any more ) I bought a 07 Ram 1500 and I bought another black truck.  The 07 Black Ram has a huge amount of metal flake in the paint.....it looks AMAZING in the sunlight.
