Congrats. This really seems a little early for a 2008 but that's cool. Hope you enjoy it. As far as black goes, you have two options, wash it all the time and it never looks dirty or leave it dirty and it never looks really really dirty (well not too long the rain will take care of cleaning it). I have owned two black vehicles over the years and both I opted for option 2 when it came to cleaning, or lack thereof.

Just reading this it does seem early, but if you think about it the dealerships usually get one or two of the next years model in at the end of august, then more start rolling in thru september. He said his wait time is 7-8 weeks, that puts him at the end of september. So even tho it is a littleearly, its not as early as it first appears to be.

yeha black definitely looks the best i tihnk, mines black and even the minute i'm done washing it there are either water spots or a little dust from a rag or any little thing you'll notice, BUT from about 15 feet away in the afternon when the sun sets ... it'll never look better

My next car/truck is definitely going to be black! I cannot choose another color unless it's that vanilla white color which is quite rare. Congrats on the truck! Can't wait to see it!

Nothing looks better black. But after2 black vehicles, a truck and a Lincoln, this old man does not hve the energy to keep them clean and car wash brushes damage the paint real quickly.

Congrats on your new ride and a life time warrentee to boot, sweet.
