Let's see your Spruce Mica's

Doubt it, as much as I love a dark green, Toyota isn't known to repeat their colors...

 

Hey everyone! I just wanted to take the opportunity to say hi and say thanks. Creeping on this thread, reading the posts and drooling over the pics helped me make my decision to pull the trigger on my new-ish truck. It's a '13 DCSB SR5 with only 10,500 on the clock. The color is, you guessed it, Spruce Mica! I'm not a huge fan of "green" but after seeing the paint up close, I knew it was the one. And when I found out that spruce was somewhat scarce and discontinued, I had to have it. Everyone has white, black, and blah, blah, blah... It was a private sale. The owner took very good care of it and obviously barely drove it. it still smells new and not one scratch on it. It has the factory all weather mats, cargo mat, running boards, and window visors. Never smoked in and never will be. I'm so excited, I can't sleep. I'll take ownership tomorrow and get the tag/insurance done and will post some pics once I get her home.

 

Congrats & welcome to the spruce club!

 

Nice truck, love the color.

ps: it looks hot as hell where you live

 

Maybe a new green??
I like this one a lot!


I cant say I'd trade my spruce yet though..

 

I think those bronze beedlocks are by far the best looking rims for this color. Looks sick!!

 

lol if only that truck actually was built... I'd give my left nut for a short-bed access cab with a V8.

 

Toyota does repeat colors and when they don't they have been known to change it only slightly...first example that comes to mind is Indigo Ink and Nautical Blue. Both very close in color.

And on the first gens the green changed name but was very much the same...

Blown Spruce

 

So, I was busy pretty much all week. But here she is! First order of business was to plastidip the badges and chrome grill surround. Not a fan of chrome. Haha! Now I just gotta do something about the running boards. Anyone wanna trade a black set for the stock Toyota ones?

 

Great color!

 

Decals and a Tonneau . . . time to bump the thread. (sorry for the insta-edit, it was a crappy picture to begin with)

 

It's been a while since I posted so here's a couple pics.

Added flags to the doors also.

 

Just put a lift and new tires on mine

 

Etmccue, welcome! Your from my old stomping grounds, I had over 1000 days under my belt snowboarding and skiing at vail/bc back in the 90's and 00's. Lots of great 4x trails too. Hope things haven't gotten too crowded out there. You've got the typical ski bum set-up with the Tacoma. Including a shot from the bc back country on an epic year.

 

That's incredible! You definitely got to enjoy the best times. It is such a shit show out here these days. 26,000 people on Vail in one day. Hotels replacing housing. Rent prices that could get you a mortgage on a mansion in any other town. But luckily for me, I'm the kind of person that enjoys disappearing into the woods where the crowds don't exist.

 

Looks like you've got the right idea with the tele setup. Get as far away from all the yahoos as u can. I had to move to Georgia to find enough breathing room from the crowds. Just waiting on climate change to start bringing snow down here so I can dust off the ski boots. Great pics! Brings me back to the good ole days.

 

2013 DCLB just got it last week.

 

Annual spring detailing is complete.
