Blue Ribbon Thread!!! Let's see them!!!

^ ^ ^

Here's my new BRM. That's my wife talking to the sales rep.

 

New off the lot!

Getting her dirty with a little flexing!

 

What kind of running boards are those? I like the look of them!

 

Thanks. They are N-fabs

 

I miss A&W! Oh, and beautiful rig! I have Pabst Blue Ribbon Metallic as well.

 

congrats and beautiful truck!

 

New member here and I just pick mine up this past Monday.

 

^^^^

Looks just like mine. Love it.

 

Alrighty, team Blue Ribbon. Serious question for y'all.
As the opportunity to buy a new 2nd gen winds down, I'm really leaning towards a BRM DCSB OR.

Question is: How often do you walk outside, look at your truck, and wonder if it's really purple?

I've seen a few in person, and they look really sweet. BUT, there are pics online that worry me.
My first Taco, years ago, was a '96 ext. cab that was a 'blurple-ish' color. It kind of drove me nuts.
And my buddies broke my balls - a lot.

 

Never. Sometimes it seems like a darker blue but that's it.

 

I've owned vehicles that were red, green, silver and different shades of blue. After having my BRM for a month now, no doubt it is my favorite color ever. The shine when clean is amazing. I've never thought that it looks purple. Go for it .

 

Well, thanks for the votes of confidence.
Take a look at the 3rd picture down on page 6 of this thread to see what I'm talking about, haha!

 

this one? that is just the reflection from the orange building. Thing is so clean!

 

Yeah man, that's the one!!
It is indeed clean, but she looks mighty blurple to me.

 

And for the record, this would be my 3rd 2015 Tacoma, a 'hat trick' if you will.

That's why the decision is so big for me, as much a 'first world problem' as it might sound.
My 1st was a Pyrite DCSB Sport 6-speed. I absolutely despised the trans, so I traded
it in on a Magnetic Grey DSCB OR Auto. Liked the OR much more, but sold it because I was very unhappy
with the build quality.

Probably should just stick with my trusty '99 and call it a day, but I can't seem to shake the itch.

 

I've pretty much sat and stared at mine all week long and I can't see any purple in it at all. Believe me you will not be disappointed at all with this color.

 

looks purple. but like I said, that is due to the reflection of the orange colored building

 

NEVER. Best color IMHO. When the dealer asked which colors I was interested in, I simply replied, "BLUE."

 

The older indigo blue Tacomas had a slight "purple" look in certain light. The BRMs aren't the same blue shade.

 

You can even see a purple like colour on the shined up tires. It is definitely just the background.
