Yes, it does. The main question is does it go better with a given paint color than a different stock interior vinyl color? I used to think black was it for EVERY interior, car or truck, didn't matter. Guess I've gotten old. It now seems like a "base" interior color to me, for some reason, even though it's not. Personally, I think parchment, oddly, goes with just about Anything also (to Ten Ring's point - neutral). As for interior paint colors for which there are actually color coordinated vinyls (blue, olive, etc) - I tend to think those look the best. For paint colors for which there is NO coordinating vinyl like, say, a plain old white truck - parchment "works" (it better, I have one...) and black also works - but I think some sort of offsetting non-neutral color looks best (red, blue, saddle, olive). Same goes for a black paint truck in my mind.

But, having said all that, I still say YES, black can go with pretty much anything.
