Mazz Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Spent the afternoon yesterday, negotiating to purchase a new truck. Negotiations are ongoing. Which one do you prefer? Red or Black? [ATTACH]64926[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]64927[/ATTACH] Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elyse Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Both are non-desirable colours, IMO. Red has been known to fade when exposed to UV light (ie: the sun). Also red coloured cars, atleast over here, generally have higher insurance rates. (something to do with red being an 'aggressive' colour...?) And Black and other dark colours are very hard to keep clean. I know this, as I have to wash my dark blue car once a week (by hand or through the automatic wash) otherwise it looks like garbage...like I haven't washed it in a whole year! Generally silver and tan-coloured cars are the easiest to keep clean (or they don't show as much dirt as darker coloured cars.). BUT, if you have no other choice of colours...then I'd pick red. There are too many black cars, IMO, and red would make you stand out amongst the crowd...which is good to help prevent stupid people from running into you. It also makes you stand out in the parking lot, which is good if you have a habit of forgetting where you parked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed #5 Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Red for all the reasons [MENTION=3404]SolitaryHowl[/MENTION] gave. If you're in fog black just fades into it ( as does white ) red does stand out somewhat better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleLuka Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Black is so much nicer looking. I like the new dark green also in the 150s too. It's so pretty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elyse Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Yes, like [MENTION=5355]Al Jones[/MENTION] said, the colour red will stand out more when you're on the road because red is more visible than black. There are a lot of dumb drivers out there that don't pay attention, so they might hit you if you have a black car and its foggy/really rainy or snowy out. But, if you have a red car, you'll stand out better especially in their peripheral vision. But, ultimately its up to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 red is a very unlucky colour for me i vote black too what is the interior like? husky fur proof? LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Angel n Auroras Mum Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 i like red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazz Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 what is the interior like? husky fur proof? LOL Interior is a nasty light grey color. I actually don't care for it, but I will probably put a different interior in it come Spring. Should show the dog fur quite nicely. Other option would be to put the dogs in the bed, but not without a topper to keep them safe. Guess that's why they make vacuums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mollys Dad Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Other option would be to put the dogs in the bed, but not without a topper to keep them safe. Can you get a top for it like the ones here? Ok, this lot are in the UK, but there must be an equivalent over there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
