    craigfla, yep your truck is very sharp.
    I think I asked before and you mentioned it came that way from your florida dealer. I am not sure if those tires and wheels would be good in winter up here in the north . I just think your overall package is the best. Distinctive , different and a definate head turner.

    Hellz yes! I am also a big fan of the Red. Being in PA, I only get one chance a year to catch them. We have an annual trip to Redfish Lodge in Corpus Christie, TX planned (June 12-14). I'm getting that lunker this year!
    Nice fish you got there!

    for some reason people dont really like it as much as the other colors! I do admit, toyota has an amazing color palet to choose from. I was really impressed! I woulda almost been okay with ANY color! (not a white or tan fan.. but ANY of the others would have been just fine with me)

    My Favorite color is "RAD". When I walked into the dealership, I wanted nothing but a Red. However I didn't let them know that.:D. Thanks guys for posting some awesome pictures of your Rad Red Tacos. I've been lurking on all forums drooling over Rad Red Tacos before purchasing mine brand new and modding it! However that Magnetic Grey is pure Sex.​


    Here is mine as its sits today. Owning it 18 months has been a great relationship.​

    I just bought mine and was offered a $600 Teflon coating that would eliminate the fading caused by UV rays and acid rain. It also keeps dirt from sticking to it and enables you to just spray it off to clean it. A co-worker did it and her car is always clean.

    I declined it. I don't mind washing and waxing - I actually enjoy it!

    Hey thanks Jeff, I really appreciate the compliment. Its a work in progress, but I really am happy with the results so far... I really got lucky when I found this truck. The grandson of the owner of a large Lexus dealer owned the truck originally, and ordered it from Toyota with EVERYTHING (except 4X4):(... He then added the 3M invisabra on the entire front end and sides, had it undercoated, drove it for 4k miles, then put it on the lot for sale...lol...

    I must say, radiant red wasnt my first choice, as I thought it was to "bright & flashy" at first... but now, I really love this color. I was at the dealer this past weekend getting my 30k maintenance done, and checked out some of the new colors in person (finally). I agree with others, Toyota does offer some beautiful colors!
