Really like forged blue, but noticing it looks more black than blue in most lights. Thinking about going silver with my ‘26 order. I’m coming from a lunar rock 4Runner TRD Pro. It was super easy to keep clean and still looked clean even when dirty. Wish there was a flat grayish color available, even though that color seems to be getting played out now.
 
I don't think any color you choose for your RHO would compare to flat colors like lunar rock when keeping clean. My friend has a silver RHO that he didn't wash for over a month when I saw him this weekend and it looks OK. It's covered with dust and the if he hadn't used his windshield washers you would not notice the dirt from far away. I also haven't washed my Red RHO for over a month and do not see a big difference between the red and silver trucks. Mine you can tell it's dirty from the door handles and the side of the doors where people touched to open and close the doors.

Consider getting and exiting color like red, you might like it.

If only they still made flame red for the 26my. My 25my was canceled and could not order flame red so on billet silver. Never had silver before but was told hides like very well.

Red has never really been my color on cars and even for clothes to be honest. Just not my style, but I do think it looks nice on some vehicles.

I’m considering Canyon Lake, but I think it’s gonna be more green than grey green.
 
On my 2nd white truck and totally agree with you. I will know my truck is dirty but when looking at it you would swear it was clean. Didn't want 3rd one, was planning on flame red. Ram decided I didn't want red as they canceled my order, so now waiting for billet silver.
 
They're all exactly the same difficulty to keep clean. But to hide filth, white and silver.

Problem is the business end of the paint job is black no matter what so you just have to actually keep it clean anyway.
 
anything that is 'flat' will be easier to keep clean / hide swirls that something 'glossy'

had a white mega cab, super easy to keep clean and didn't show issues with the paint
just traded a silver ram 1500, it was also pretty easy but looked way better when freshly clean
wife has the grey denali; super easy to keep clean

got lured into the sparkly black rho; it looks dirty before it's dried off :(
