My truck's white, and I LUV it. Easy to clean and keep clean. Doesn't show scratches easily.
But, if you paint the exterior white, that'll make the inside look weird, it being blue and all. Blue is a nice colour for these trucks.

:lol: its an amazing shop now only if I could park my luv in it! Inside of the shop is 3 dirtbikes, 1 Snowmobile, 1 motorcycle, 1 Dodge Magnum, 1 1967 Chevy Impala, 1 1970 C-10 Pickup, 1 22 foot trailer, Then on dragster that is normally out of the trailer sometimes inside. Next to the shop would be the luv, Trailer for the snowmobile/ dirtbikes, Motor home and a boat. Behind the shop is a old porche. Then the garage part of house is 2 door and has a Gmc Yukon and a Chevy truck 1 ton and a 1926 Model T. Next to that garage is a 1986 626 mazda and a 2002 trailblazer. Think there is enough cars? :lol:
