Seems like that might be a matter of personal preference/opinion.

Re: Interior colors opinions

I would have to agree with Ken, I would favor the tan over the gray/black.

I'm not looking for the same color, or even the same bench, but I just don't know where to start when looking for replacement seats.

I really want that style of bench, but with a flip-down center console that can either be an armrest, a storage bin/cup holder, or flip up and become a seat back. So far, I haven't seen this for sale anywhere.

I like the looks of that seat; cup you like buckets, but open like a bench.

The plan for the truck was two-tone blue and grey.

Re: Interior colors opinions

I would personally go with tan with the red truck though because everyone is doing black. As in there are going to be alot more red and black then red and tan out there
