Default truck colors

Register to stop seeing this ad!

I was surfing mahindraautoworld and found the exterior colors available for Pikups and Scorpios.

One that caught my attention was Java Brown.



I could see UPS easily using these trucks in their fleets - slap on a decal and there you have it!

the Aussie site has about 3 or 4 other colors besides the ones we'll start with. I think there was a green too.

the dark brown isn't something you really see anymore

That's right. I think the last dark brown was put on the 2nd gen dodge diesel pickups like mine. That's the only rig I can think of that I've seen it on at least.

I would like this color myself, it wouldn't show my dirt as much!

a nice med. blue would be my choice.

unfortunately, it is my understanding that most dealers request which colors they think will sell well. So all I see daily are dull shades of silver, black, and whites. Any vehicle with a bright color really stands out, and is quite an attention getter.


ps I work for ups, so java brown would not be my pick

+1 on the medium, royal blue color.

The 2006-2008 Dodge Ram blue was striking (no tan interior though ) It is my favorite blue for a truck.

I just remembered that I once had a Ford Courier that was brown!

Early eighties.

The engine wasn't very good - I broke a camshaft then got rid of it. (I was over 30 at the time...)
