I'm all about function and yesterday 92 degrees under sun in two different vehicles sure explained why I was after and got white. My past experience has also shown white to be good with time and wear.

My values probably differ from many in the forums because I went back to owning a pickup for utility. Earlier in life I spent more than enough time in real trucks and pickups to not have pickup ownership be some sort of image or ego thing. I can't make sense of what some do like dropping rear hight with springs or low profile tires. If I put low profile tires on my light truck it would still be crappy handling and performance compared to our car. I don't know how people don't scratch them up unless not really used as trucks. I'm not purposely abusive but stuff happens when I work etc...

I've had one black truck in my life and I got rid of it after a year. Wash it and hours later you could see all the dust and pollen on it from just sitting there. It shows the scratches more easily than a lighter colored truck. If you look at black vehicles out on the roads when you're driving around you'll see all the scratches from washing it. They're very hot in the summer. They show all the road film from rain much easier. Blah blah blah. Go white! Had I had an option for white, I would've done it!
Good luck with whatever you get!

I too like both white and black cars, but truth be told, I've had more white cars over the years now than black. White, to me, seems to be an easy color to where I dont have to worry about washing it a lot, and it really doesnt look dirty when it's dirty -- sure you know what I mean by that.

Black on the other hand shows all dirt, all the time! But when it's cleaned and waxed up nothing looks better -- not even the white. The same is true for other dark colors like red, blue, etc. I live in Phoenix, so I default to white simply because, well, phoenix is like a furnace in the summer!

My last three trucks have been white, so on some subconscious level, I've already chosen white as my favorite even though I'd like to have a different color vehicle... All in all I'm happy with my white taco!
Thank you for taking the time to answer my question in the middle of a furnace-like summer, I can understand what you are saying, for what you said in the middle of your post. To my surprise, I thought that black is more resistant to stains than white, but I didn't realize that black is actually better than white. The advice you gave is very useful to me, thank you very much!

Dark colors only if you garage or carport it (from a black truck owner) The sun is not kind to the absence of color. Underground slightly better albedo but similar fate, requires thorough care against sun damage.

white if you don’t want 2nd degree burns in the summer touching the vehicle. Black truck sitting in the sun will heat your lunch on the hood. So there’s that.
It's true. Black absorbs heat.

Toyota is known to have problems with their white paint. Don't know if it's still a thing but the 3rd gens had it right up until the end of their run. And that is definitely Underground, not black.
You are right.
