What's the Best Color for a Dirt Road

I live down 2 miles of dirt road. I'm about to pull the trigger on a 2010 SS and wonder what color would be the easiest to keep clean. I love black on black on black but understand the problem. I sort of like IOM but wish it was more orange and less tomato red. I'm planning on splash guards BTW.

Most of the dirt roads I have seen are brown.........




Silver car might hide it best though.

White. It hides dirt well. Plus, white plus orange stripes really look great!

The best three colors at hiding dirt are White, Yellow, and Silver.

I agree... white. It has to be one of the most maintenance free colors out there.

I have both. Silver hides it better. Though pewter is THE best, our Blazer is pewter and I don't think I've washed it in a year, and you can't tell at all!

I live down a dirt road. My last two cars were silver. My new 2ss is CGM and I wish I had gone for the silver again!

Silver, no doubt about, always lookin clean. White looks clean for a bit, then starts turning a diffrent color, when it gets real dirty.
