[quote=Anonymous]White, IMO, is always best for SUVs and vans. Black shows dirt the most. Due to evolution, human eyes pick up on imperfections that are brighter than the base color, and all dirt is brighter than black, so you will notice everything. This is less so on white, since most dirt will be darker in color and your eyes are not as likely to notice them. Silver is indeed least noticeable for dirt because most dirt is "midtones" and simply blends in. That said, I always spend $99 for a tube of DIY ceramic coating after I purchase the car and wipe it on. This keeps the car fairly clean as the car "washes itself" during rain storms. My white van has been driven several hundred miles through salted roads and was covered in dirt and salt crystals. After the rain we had a couple of weeks ago, it looks clean again. I wash the van maybe once a year or two, just to break loose any dirt that is more stuck on. [/quote]
