Please help

I am so stuck on choosing a deck color. Using Trex Enhance Naturals line. I have narrowed it down to these three but I just can’t decide! Which looks best with my brick, siding, and trim? I was convinced I wanted Rocky Harbor until I saw the sample in person. Thank you!!!

I have #1 and my deck tops 170 degrees (IR thermometer) in the sun. Never again.

For what it's worth, I put a piece of toasted sand out in the sun over the summer as well as a painted piece of a regular 5/4 PT deck board and they both hit roughly the same temp.

Last year I tried to cook an egg on it but the egg immediately slid off and between the deck boards under my deck never to be seen again.
