    Hmmmm, sorry to hear that. Technically, he's the conduit to Bryan, the inventory manager. I get all my build updates from him.

    Finally saw a 3rd Gen in person. Dealer was closed, so didn't get to open the doors. It was a AC TRD Sport in White. First thought, Wow, way better in person. Both the grill and scoop look way better in person. I would say the '16 is a big improvement over both my '06 & '13 Tacos. Can't wait to see some more colors in person.

    well NFAB's are $443.xx but that doesn't include shipping or install pricing.

    so what is the issue then?

    I actually got it under $300 shipped from a vendor here. Install takes 10 mins.

    Saw a rare truck today... Inferno DCLB TRD Off-road... Priced at $34,000 and in Pontiac Michigan. It doesn't look horrible in person, just different. I definitely prefer the 2013 that I own and I don't feel like I missed out by not waiting. I'm sure they'll be a good truck though for the people that didn't get in on the second generation.

    I saw it in person guys, it's Inferno... Color reproduction on my phone isn't completely accurate, but it definitely looked orange in person.

    Also something funny I noticed... the knee-height black plastic "overbite" was loose... like it had already been bumped into something (no scratches though). It just had really poor fitment and looked goofy in person with my 2nd gen sitting in the parking lot several feet away.

    It definitely looked good in person. My comment about, "I'm sure they'll be a good truck though for the people that didn't get in on the second generation.", seems to maybe have been ambiguous. I don't think the truck (visually) is worth spending money to upgrade from a 2nd gen. I think people upgrading from the 1st gen will appreciate the new truck and people considering it against its competitors (Frontier, GM Twins) are going to appreciate it. I think most people will like it, and the people that won't, are likely already 2nd gen owners.

    As a side note, Inferno looks really good in person, although a bit more orange than I expected. I think Radiant Red would have looked better with the black fender flares and styling than Inferno. Definitely better looking than the 2015 Barcelona reds they had sitting on the lot (out of the picture).
