I have a choice between black and granite on the 202 2 3500 Laramie. I am leaning towards the granite but I’m having a tough time making up my mind. Pros and cons on the granite please!!!
 
Either will look good.

Any body who owns a black truck will probably tell you they look amazing clean but they’re hard to keep looking that way

Greys are probably the most forgiving color as far as keeping clean and little imperfections

I have a black one and I don’t bother to wash it. If they’re optioned exactly the same it will be a hard choice.

Thanks rockcrawlerdude I spent a hour or so at the dealer just staring at both Color’s
I’ve decided on the grey.

Great choice. My 2019 was black and my 2022 is grey. The 2022 is definitely easier to keep clean, and IMHO looks way better.
 
Thanks guys I appreciate the feedback.
 
Good choice, I love my black 2500 but hate how easy scratches are seen. A scratch shines like white streak of lightening in the night sky. My brother in law has granite and it’s not near as noticeable.
 
Black sure looks good when clean, but so hard to keep clean and scuff and scratch free. I am guessing some of the ceramic coatings help a bit. I have had a lot of black motorcycles but have not had a black truck for many years. I almost bought a black power wagon when I bought my silver truck as they had one in the show room and right when i was getting ready to sign the papers my wife said we should get the black one lol. We walked over and looked at it and it was beautiful from 10 feet away but even being in the showroom and polished as soon as you looked close at the the doors where people were opening and closing it there were those little swirls and scratches.
 
Jadmt I had a black bike as well always a pain to try and keep it clean funny enough when I traded that in I got the industrial gray
 
I ended up going with black this time. My last truck was grey. Love how a black truck looks but it is work to keep it clean. Almost decided to do Granite or the Patriot Blue but I didn't want to regret no getting it in Black.
I dropped it off for PPF yesterday(plus tint on the driver and passenger windows) and will be applying ceramic coat as soon as the weather cooperates here in CT. Hoping this will make the maintenance easier.
