Resale thoughts

If you were building a truck for yourself in a semi stock style, what color or color combo would you say is the most likely to attract buyers down the road when you decide to sell your ride? I know we all have our personal preferences, so it may be hard to say.

When I say semi stock I mean totally stock interior and exterior. Tire and wheel upgrade with maybe a drop but no air bags. And possibly a newer drive train. If I was in the market for a finished truck the only thing I would want to have to do is maybe change the tires and wheels. I think the street rod crowd would call it a resto-mod.

There is a pretty nice GMC Ive seen that's been for sale for a very long time. Its orange and has big bling tires and wheels. Ive never bothered to check it out. I like orange, but I like two tone. Big giant wheels aren't really my thing. They look OK totally tucked in (which this one doesn't have), but when I see bags, I see potential problems.

So if you were driving down the road and saw a for sale sign on a truck what color would make you whip around and go check it out? I see our trucks for sale all the time, sometimes I go take a look, most times I don't.

There are a lot of trucks on the board I really love, but I think 70cst's circuit rider is pretty close to the most perfect truck to match what I'm trying to describe. Its built to his tastes (timeless) and a truck I think most people would love to own and leave it as is. The green paint and tire and wheel combo would definitely make me stop and check it out if I saw it for sale.
