Thats not entirely true. There was a clean ass all black '00 Chevy in Truckin' before they started featuring lifted trucks, and boats and stuff.

Black is my favorite color to photograph, but you have to have the right conditons at sunset to really pull it off. It is even tougher now with digital because of the loss of dynamic range as compared to film. Here's a couple of my favs.BMC

its not that they dont get featured, its more the fact that you will very rarely see one on the cover of a magazine. from what i understand, and i could be wrong, a more colorful vehicle would be put on the cover as more of an attention grabber....im not sure that i myself have ever seen an all black car or truck on the cover of a magazine. im sure there has been before, just none that ive seen.
