    I went to the dealership looking for a white double cab, left with a quicksand. Happy I made that decision every time I see the truck.

    I have the charcoal. If the dealership had the quicksand the day I bought it, I would have gone with it.

    IMG_0345.jpg I went in with the intentions of buying charcoal and left with this silver, totally happy with the color I got, but I also like the quicksand, think it looks the best with black wheels and black anything on it:)

    Mgm or inferno are the only options.

    Either of those colors look great if you get them in the Off Road package. For some reason, I think they look funny (inferno and quicksand) with color matched fenders.

    OP, I'm not going to try hard to convince you to go one way or the other because when it comes right down to it I simply don't care what color you get. I will however leave you with the thing that really drew me to Quicksand. My truck is never dirty, just differing levels of paint reflectiveness.

    I went with the first truck that gave me a good deal, there wasn't a color I didn't like.

    I don`t really care for the quicksand or inferno but if I had to choose between the two it would be the quicksand because I don`t think I would like driving around in something that reminds me of a pumpkin.

    I agree, you need the black accents to break things up on both of these colors.

    On the plus side, Quicksand still looks good when it's dirty and looks really good clean.

    And it has a little heritage

    The Quicksand color is my single favorite thing about the 3rd Gen. White is always a good choice though.

    2ng gen'r here. Quicksand would be my choice. Something about it makes it the numero uno color choice for you 3rd generation guys.

    Easy to maintain would be the white or silver.

    If you like darker go MGM.
    Black is hands down the best color when clean ....if you know how to wax.
