Silver. Looks classy like black, easier to clean, but more regal than plain white. But you'd go good either way...hell...it's a Raptor. Can't really go wrong!

I ordered a Black one & ended up with a White one. Hell, I guess that is what you call being colored blind. Go figure. BTW-I would love to have a Condo in Florida Panhandle - Redneck Rivera!

I had a 98 5.9 Jeep GC in silver; looked great clean or dirty, hid brush scratches easily.
Traded it in for a 06 5.7 Jeep GC in blue; looks great clean, ok dirty, but I always need to buff out scratches.
Got a 08 SLK in obsidian black metallic; looks fantastic clean, but it’s almost impossible keeping it that way.
My bike is red and attracts tickets standing still.
I ordered my Raptor in Silver!

Black ON White.

I went blue, but between Black & White I definately have to vote white.

They look really good done up with some black touches here n there. (Graphics, Vinyl, Decal, wheels, tints , tonneau / linex etc etc..)

High contrast = high appeal. And the contrast doesn't get much better than black on white.

Done and dusted. It's ordered. Thanks for all your input. I am going with Black primarily because every vehicle I have owned for the last 20 years has been white. I will be using it off road, but where I live and because of what I do I will probably only get the chance 2-3 times a year. If it were more often I would have gotten white to hide scars.

Mahalo!

Black. Zombies can't see black...

Actually, Zombies use a very sophisticated ( for the undead anyway) array of senses to locate prey, at least in the beginning stages of infection.

First, all senses are employed. Vision, hearing, smelling, and touch ( feeling vibration ). As the disease progresses, vision is the first to go because the eyes are soft tissue and decompose faster than the skin or bone. This is generally considered Stage 1 Decomp and lasts well into the third week . Touch and the sense of smell are lost in Stage 2 Decomp usually 4 to 6 weeks after infection. Stage 3 Decomp leaves our friends and neighbors quite hairy, quite rotten, quite stinky, and quite capable of tracking you down for miles with there sense of smell. Stage 3 can last up to 12 weeks. There are many variables associated with these facts but as you can see, an epidemic of worldwide population, based on a slow rate of infection, could keep us Raptor owners no matter what color, on a glorious full on assault for at least a couple of years.

Happy hunting!

That was a misprint, I hope I have not given anyone false hope. Its the sense of hearing that is the last to go. They can detect sound and large or loud vibration up to 12 weeks after infection.
