I have black, but wish it was white. Just so it won't show the scratches.

I went through exactly the same. White, no silver, wait... White. Ordered silver. Then changed to white and back to silver before the order was pulled. Dealer started hiding from me. Sometimes think I should have gone blue. Two silver ones in the freakin neighborhood now. Only seen one blue in the year I've owned it. Truth is... They all rock and I love my Silver Raptor. Looks awesome dripping mud in the driveway. At this point I'm thinking why not blue too, but my wife now wants a soft top Jeep. So, a second Raptor doesn't make sense. Hey, could have been a convertible bug she wanted. One thing I do know...

You are going to love it.

I would think it's the other way around. Don't see how common colors could be more appealing then colors that set the truck off from every other color on the road.

Black- will look good for a few months when new, until all the swirl marks and tiny scratches take over.

White- Looks like a fleet vehicle

Silver- Boring.


You are so right. I work @ a large utility facility and every day when I start home it's impossible to pick my white Raptor out of the row of work trucks. Some days I get home before I realize I've taken the wrong truck.

Not trying to be the oddball, but is think it'd be crazy to buy a raptor and choose the color based on resale value. With that mindset, the best resale value is not buying one at all. Buy the one that makes you happy. The color YOU want.

I wanted the fastest one, so I went black.

I have a White Tacoma, and a silver Acura NXS, so I decided to be a bit different this time and went with a TERRAIN Raptor.

I want to wrap it in Kryptek Camo though.
