When all is said and done and the money goes down, can't beat silver/titanium/gray/dark gray for serious vehicle.

On the other hand a dark grey vehicle tends to blend into the background and be harder for the other drivers to see.

Can't go wrong with yellow, imho.

My wife said "Buy any color you'd like, its your honey...but I can't stand yellow". I want her to like the color, and titanium (silver, gray) was the only color we could agree on. She liked the black cherry, but my arthritis started murmuring just thinking about keep that color in good shape.

The titanium will be easy to care for, compared to a dark color.

So..Yellow was my primary choice until she told me how she felt about it, so I went to my 2nd choice.

When it comes to visibility, the most invisible to me is dark green. In shadows or at night, harder for me to see dark green than even gray or black.

It's interesting too how some designs and colors go much better together than others. We had a 1997 Olds 88 that looked great in teal green but awful in white or silver, colors that we usually like. Some colors just go better with certain designs, but I can't figure out why.

My wife went the other direction. She liked the Xterra, but loved the yellow Xterras.
