I would personally go with black. I always thought black trucks with red interiors looked very badass. That and it matches the best with a red interior.

Re: need suggestion for a new color

How about the factory bright red and charcoal (dark silver)? If you are putting the side trim on, I would go with the deluxe paint scheme ( charcoal on roof, red on hood, and upper body, charcoal between the chrome strips, and red at the bottom. If you are not using the side trim, here are a couple of scemes that you might use
