I've owned 2 black trucks and I'll never own another. The up-keep is killer, starts looking dirty 5 minutes after you wash it. That and the fact you can see scratches and swirl marks from a mile away.

Geez....yeah this is old news
I mentioned this truck over a month ago when I saw it at the Auto Show in person

And also again when "shocker" was blacking out his headlights....I mentioned that the dealer was gonna carry them since they were on the NiteRunner edition


Anyways....nice pic of the truck you posted (from the brochure)...makes it look sweet

The paint is a dark metallic/pearl black.......not a true glossy black. It's kind of a very dark charcoal metallic (lots of metallic/pearl in the paint) borderline black color.


And the rims are black chrome with a silver/polished lip....how are they not "black chrome enough"?
They're like a gunmetal color that is reflective (chrome).

Yes, it was mentioned a month ago here: https://dodgeforum.com/m_379532/tm.htm as well as a half a year ago, via a rumor... You guys should stop in "Brand News, Concepts and Rumors" more often... You might have heard about it sooner...
