I live in the country and have a 1 mile long gravel driveway. Needless to say, my vehicles don't get washed very often. I try to choose a color that won't show the dust/dirt very often. This is why I chose silver for my 4Runner.
I love the red 4runners. but of course the PO decided to paint over with a single layer of plastdip and bird dropping so now it looks terrible. gonna sand her down and bedline the entire thing eventually
True, black is always a good go-to. For me there are a lot of good options depending on which generation. I'd vote for anthracite or cool steel (or lavender steel) on the 3rd gens. 4th gens look great in black or nautical blue. 5th gens look best in salsa red, in my opinion. Inferno and cavalry blue are awesome on the newest TRD Pros, but I don't think I've seen them in the wild.
