Default Color preference/maintenance on Off-Road pickup...

What paint (color/finish) maintenance concerns do you guys have that off road your pick-up regularly/occasionally?

I'm getting a '06 Tacoma TRD-OR soon. But undecided with the color.
Still considering 3 options. Black, Indigo ink, or Desert Sand (in that order). I realize Black and Indigo will get dirty FAST (unlike the Desert Sand). I have a black car already and I know how it is (But I don't off-road my Sedan).

I like Black 'cause it looks so damn good when it's clean. But can I expect it to go to $*** in no time if I 'wheel my truck regularly?
What are you're guys opinions?

I already wash my Car EVERY week! I expect I will do the same with my truck as well as wax more often. Will ALWAYS wash off the dirt right after mudding (whenever possible), and it won't be sitting dirty for days on end. I can handle a little normal dust buildup during the week (I live in the desert anyway).

Even if I 'wheel my truck, will this be enough to keep it looking good for a LONG time, or should I consider another color?
