I personally like the white trucks...they are very easy to keep clean....you couldnt give me another black vehicle.....(unless it was a Vette or Porche)

I havent set up my pics since the board changed....but if you send me your e-mail address, I'll email you couple of pics of my truck...I have some graphics and Ive been told it looks pretty nice...

See thats one thing ive thought about. i have a black and red. And if you get a chip or scratch the primer shows right up White no problem haha


the salt sstuff wont show so bad either


so might be a good idea...... but wanna get some ideas haha.

How about this White truck?

Its a 1937 White 706, owned by Brad Boyajian of Chatsworth, CA



Sorry, I know what you meant.. I just couldnt resist.
Ive seen some good looking white trucks. My definition of a good looking white truck is one with just a little bit of chrome and black windows.

Ive seen other white trucks that have had too much put on them and they just dont look right.

Just my opinion.

Best thing about a white truck around here is they blend in with the city work trucks (most are dodge) Cops don't bother me too much. White looks nice all polished up, not too bad dirty either. Doesn't show the scratches as bad.

i had black bedliner sprayed on my rocker panels. it really sets the truck off, and protects the panels.

Like Palmetto Kid I had the rockers sprayed too. I used a real dark gray rhino liner. Looks good and functional. You can see it under my members photos.

I put some black moulding with a chrome strip in it on my 3500.
I also added some flares and boards that have black foot pads.
Black things seem to do the best in breaking up the white.

Hit my www button and you should be able to see some of it.

Not sure how to post a picture here.
