NO WAY!!!!!!!Gonna trade my 04 for a new 2012 or 201`3 in the next few weeks. It will be my third (thats 3) black AV, too bad they don't offer body armor any longer. :B: :B:
 
Nope, trade our Burgundy for a Black one and the black one just looks soooooo much better - but living in the country i will have to wash it more but that doesnt bother me.
 
Never!

Black 97 K1500
Black 2000 Z28
Black 06 Av Z71
Black 07 Escalade ESV
Black 2013 Av Z71

Black vehicles are like high maintenance women, a little more work, but worth the effort because they look that darn good!
 
I had a black 07 the salt and road grime in winter driving kept me busy. Thought I wished up buying a new white one. Birds love crapping on this one. They load up on dirt and berries and the bombs away. I swear they get in formation while I'm actually washing it. And let's not forget about the kamikaze bugs. Personally I think the best color is pewter
 
I turned down a pretty good deal on a '12 Avalanche because it was black inside and out.  I agree that black looks really sharp when clean.  In the climate I live in, though, the inside of the truck would be like a sauna after sitting in the sun for a couple of hours.  I opted for a white Avalanche with cashmere interior.

I wish my interior wasnt black as well, but was the only colour I could get with the options and exterior colour I wanted.  My last 3 vehciles has either grey or tan.  With this colour you see everything inside
 
Just got rid of my 07 Yukon because it was black. Picked up the new avy in topaz blue. I got sick of the Yukon always looking dirty and showing every swirl and mark like a site thumb. I will never own black again. I like brighter colors anyway. My two choices were red and blue and I could not find a left over 12 red one with the options I wanted.
 
It's been a rainy fall up here in the Northeast...which of course makes it very hard to keep my truck looking good.
The other day,between showers I went out and wiped it down...
I don't know what I will do this winter,can't keep it in the garage all season.

Still,I would not have it any other way.
 
Love my black 09 Avy! Live in Alberta, Canada but work in the states during the winter so the truck get to hibernate in the garage except when I come home for a break. Don't really mind the washing since it really is a labor of love for me. Wish I could post a pic but still the new guy...
 
no way black is the best color  (y)

Some vehicles look good in black, some don't. But, Avys look GREAT in black! The titanium interior helps with the heat in the Summer, provided you keep the sun roof shade closed.
Still looks good when dirty.
 
I had a black PGT back in the day and I beat the hell out of it.    helped with the "sleeper" look. it beat a few big blocks and foreigns.    >:D
Also had a 92 ranger that was black. (work truck) :9: glad that thing blew up!

Now I see pictures of black AVS and wish mine would quit being red and, start being black.  :(
 
My last 3 Chevy trucks were black.
Nothing looks better than a black truck when it's clean, but they don't look clean very long.
My new Avalanche is Silver Ice Metallic.
