My 1999 is Oxford White and I like it but I'd kill to have that Wedgewood Blue, that is a beautiful color!

My truck was a work truck but I've done a 180 on it, you'd never know looking at it now. Well other then the fact that it's white, but the trim & pinestripping have helped out a ton.

I agree with the general consensus, go with the blue! I have never really been a fan of white vehicles (no offense white truck guys). It's just that white is the most popular vehicle color and there are twice as many of them on the road as any other color. If you want to be somewhat individualized white is not the color you want. Also...and I realize this isn't a problem in Houston...but in climates where it snows, white is horrid, shows every bit of kicked up grime from the sand and crap on the roads.

In the end you are the person you have to please, which one do you like best?

Happy Hunting

Thanks Dzervit. 108,000 miles and still looking pretty good.

I'm trying to talk my wifes boss into letting me detail her red Aviator. She always makes comments about how nice our vehicles look and I told her I could really make hers shine also.

Max,

I gotta hand it to you. That's one awsome looking truck. When you add in the fact that it's got over 100 grand on the clock, it's even more unbelieveable. I'm still struggling to find the right camera angle to capture the shine on my '02, but Oxford White is tough to do that with. Do you find the same thing I do in that Oxford White seems to get a "soft glow" when detailed correctly? I just hope the '05 I ordered Monday night shines as good. Keep up the good work!
