Black is great.. then Dark Blue, just can not and will not keep it clean. (WORK)
Same here. I prefer dark colored trucks, so my bronco and sd are both one color. My wife prefers light colors, so when I got her a van and expedition they needed the two tone to make them look better.

I would never buy a two tone truck, especially light colors. That being said, I love my True Blue King Ranch. With the paint scheme including the fender flares, it gives an overall complete look IMO. Without the fender flares, it looks like it was slapped on as an afterthought. Again, just my opinion.
I worked in the car biz for over a decade. Two tone trucks were always the slowest sellers in my five state region. Except King Ranch of course. Working at volume based dealerships, I typically saw a ratio of 10:1 single tone paint versus two tone. So around here, a two tone truck is more unique.

Before I bought my truck last month I use to rent one from Enterprise truck rental. Was a pretty good deal for infrequent use. All white F250 6.7. I think 2 tone just looks like an upper trim level model.

If I was made of money, I would looove a Ruby Red Platinum Crew. Gorgeous color.

There's something about this color in the morning and evening sun that just make it pop for me. Put some polarized sunglasses on and there's even more of wow factor.

that is why some sunrise and sunsets are Reddish... reddish light from the sun and reflective red paint.. is a winner.

I agree that is a great color combination.
