Curious to thoughts. Does granite have a brown tinge to it?

Colorado and Texas.
I was torn between Granite, Max Steel, Patriot Blue, or Black..... I have had 2 Blue, 2 Black, and one Silver grey truck.... Now my third Black, and Black won due to deal price that the dealers were asking for the other colors...

Granite Crystal is a beautiful color, especially when freshly washed and waxed...it really pops in the sunlight, so sparkly!! I don't see any brown in it at all.

Love the billet, originally I wanted White with silver as a second choice ended up with silver, no regrets. Beautiful dark silver in the sun, But looks grey in the shade or when its overcast. Really, ram did an awesome job with paint colors on these trucks, all of them are really nice.

Get ready! @19Jake is about to post another picture of his truck and tell you that Max Steel is the color to get. LOL

I looked at Granite. I didn't want black because of the Florida sun and how hot it gets. In the end...I decided on Billet Silver. I think the best part about Billet is that my truck can be filthy and look clean unless you get right up on it.

Billet will definitely look the best if it gets dirty. Granite isn't terrible for appearance with dirt, but it will show. I have granite and really really like it. With black badges, it looks pretty sinister.

Billet Silver here. But all the colors are nice. Black when freshly cleaned is awesome.

Love my granite color, I really wanted a white one (old trucks were white) but I decided to change it up a bit. Love that it's not black but it's still dark. It definitely changes shades in different light. I've gotten asked if I had a black truck or a gray one in the same day. Imo it's a nice color, but that max steel is legit VERY nice 20190404_131010.jpg 20190404_151232.jpg
