    09 Doublecab TRD Off-Road! Magnetic Grey!
    I went to the toyota dealer today just check the new colors without the sales person getting on my ass!

    Timberland Mica and Barcelona Red... SO UGLY!!!! OMG!!! HORRIBLE!!!
    I thought I was going to Puke!!! The Pyrite is ugly too... they didn't have that color there with the tacoma but with the Tundra!! HORRIBLE!!!

    The best new color for the 09 is Magnetic Gray and that's it!!
    NO more radiant Red, no more Impulse rd or Indigo Blue??!!
    these colors were so much better the 09's!!!

    I'm sorry to the 09 owners with the new colors, either you have no taste or just color blind. What I saw today almost made me fainted...

    than again... this is my opinion...:D


    Magnetic Gray rulz!!!

    oh I think the SR5 package with the back up camera standard... but the 1 inch back up screen is ridiculuosly small!!

    Maybe you should check and see if Tampax makes their products in Radiant Red, Indigo Ink, or Impulse Red Pearl. That might satisfy your Taco hunger.

    Stick on hood scoop from Autozone.

    I saw a blue Sport with a rainbow colored sticker across the length of the tailgate that said "Rainbow Ride II". It made me really sad. :(

    that was hot stuff....

    Man they ruined the Barcelona red... so ugly... it does not even look like red!!

    the radiant red and the impulse red were so much better....

    I don't know but I kind of like these new colors, I kind of lean towards the earth tones, although I have the indigo blue, (when buying used you get what you get) it's a nice color but a bitch to keep clean, so I just quit washing it, I drive in my own filth. :eek: :washing:

    I agree. If all they had was Barcelona Red when I bought mine, I would've gone with SWB or Silver.
