Interior colors -- which to choose? Opinions wanted!

The painter has been painting away. The trusses have been painted the color of the new windows (as have our old window frames). Should we go with this charcoal gray color or perhaps with more of a red, to match the color of the kitchen cabinets (there are a few glass doors in the kitchen cabinets which will be red). We're also thinking of painting our garage door a burgundy red to add some more visual interest. What do you think? We need to decide within the next day or so -- no pressure!

The interior wall color is also up for deciding on. Right now, we're leaning towards the sample on the right, which is called something like vanilla shake. I actually like them all, with a preference towards the left-most (which has a hint of green) and the right-most. In fact, the white that the drywall is is also fine with me. I never thought that choosing a color of white could be quite so difficult!

They have made a lot of progress this week. The floors are prepped and ready for the hardwood and the tile to be laid. Downstairs, the bathroom cabinetry has been installed. Painting will continue over the coming week, and the house will continue to look more like a house. I suspect that the ceiling installation won't start until our contractor returns in a week.
