What color is this?

Well, i finally found a ranger that is exactly what i want (well close enough, i wanted one with a stepside bed, but i've been looking for one for several weeks, but didn't find one with reasonable miles on it). I just have to wait till tommorrow afternoon hoping he still has it and call when i get home from school. Im just curious what the color is. It says maroon, but i know that isn't a color they made. Im thinking its Toreador red.........i did a search and says theres also "bright red". Also, i've heard toreador red is an expensive paint color?
This is the truck.

It might be Toreador Red but it's hard to tell from the photo. The exterior paint code should be on the driver door jamb label.

I don't know what color it is, but it is a good lookin truck & it's a blank slate to mod.

Yea, i see alot of potential in it to mod, i just hope he still has it. I might even put a stepside bed on it if i can find one for a decent price...........i wonder if a junk yard would have one for a really decent price?

Yea, i called today, and it sounds like a good truck. I dont know if i'll get it though. I've got to see if i can get a loan, find out what insurance will be, find time to go look at it (its almost 2 hrs away).......everybodys too busy to take me right now. I've been looking for rangers for a couple months now, and watching ever deal go by............it sucks, but aint nothin I can do about it.
