I'm going to be ordering a dually soon and can't decide between granite crystal metallic or patriot blue. I found a few pictures on the web to compare that I attached to this post, but I've only seen the blue with night edition in person and gray with chrome in person. I think the blue looks really good, but I'm afraid it might be harder to sell since it probably appeals to fewer people. I take really good care of my vehicles' exterior if that makes a difference.

The pictures with 2 trucks I found on the web and the single pictures are ones I took in person with direct sunlight and after sunset.

Can’t go wrong either way. It’s not like it’s bright yellow or something so reselling when the time comes wouldn’t be any issue just based off color. I say Patriot blue since it’s seems less common then granite.

If planning on ceramic coating Granite produces some really nice gloss. I think long term Granite will please the eyes longer IMO but like both very much.

I'm a bit biased of course.... but PB is definitely my choice. ;)

I like the patriot blue it’s the first vehicle that I ever owned in blue. I’m very happy with the color and the interior two-tone leather and the leather accents are blue as well as the dashboard I think it looks really sharp. Whatever you choose I’m sure you’ll be happy with it, all the colors look great.

For me it would depend on location. I live where it gets very dusty (farm country). So you can expect to always have dust on your truck unless you have the time and patience to wash your truck almost daily. Granite hides this dust much better than PB (I've owned both). If I lived where there's less dust I might go with PB again.
