    Not my money, not my truck, but since it was asked :puke:Now that I have seen the 4r & Tacoma in person, the pictures actually make it look better. Again, not my money, not my truck - get what makes you happy.

    They should introduce a nice semi-dark forest olive green. The blue seems a bit childish to me aka not badass

    Nice truck. I can appreciate, but I couldn't justify the difference in price and availability to get the Pro over the Off Road edition. The difference in the sticker price, plus you can't negotiate anymore savings because there is no supply and demand competition. Plus, 2017 got me 0.0% APR for even more savings. I really feel like Toyota should create a bigger differentiation from the Off Road model, similar to what Ford does with the Raptor. Hell, even Chevy does a better job of differentiating the ZR2 from the ZR71 and other Colorado trims.

    If I was still a US Civil War re-enactor, I would consider it out of respect for the chevron and pant color. But I like the Blazing Blue Pearl a lot. I would seriously consider a pearled maroon or pearled emerald green.

    Not a fan of blue, but thought it looked great on the 4runner in saw at the dealership.

    Awww no way man! Spruce Mica is a cool color. We had a spruce mica Rav4 for a couple of years. It was cool but there was too much gray plastic on it. Then we needed a Sienna so the Rav was no more. The biggest problem with it was that it was my wife's vehicle and she didn't keep it nearly as clean as I would have so it kind of always looked like crap. I convinced her to get silver on the Sienna and it is always dirty but looks less bad. ha ha

    They should definitely make it with supercharged or something to put out 350 plus hp and lot more torque.

    No way! With black rims, looks like a ranger vehicle. Needs to have some olive to it not that green they released in 2016, that was garbage

    That was the plan. That's always the plan. I actually LIKE washing cars... but come to find out, getting it away from her for an hour or two is quite the challenge. She's usually gone with it when I have free time and when she's not, it's because the weather sucks!

    I learned that her vehicle will likely NEVER be as clean as mine... I wash it every chance I get but that's still not nearly as often as my vehicle.

    I said forest green with some olive in the original post. Not just forest green. The tundra has a nice green too. Maybe something like this, but shiny, not matte finish

    There should only be two colors that are non metallic, Black and White, every other color should be metallic. Can't figure out some of the color choices they come up with especially for the Pro. I love my Black and I suppose everyone loves their colors as well. $.02

    Toyota of New Orleans has a TRD Pro 4R and Tacoma in the new color, personally not a fan. I don't like how the black fender parts around the wheel wells aren't painted the same color on the Tacoma.

    I don't mind non-metallic colors.... black is a good example. I don't mind the non-metallic black and I also like the Midnight Black Metallic. I think some of the metallic paints can get a bit too flaky... Then again, depending on the vehicle, I like pearl white. Looks classy ha ha. I bought an Acura RSX-S in college and got a Premium White Pearl. That was sweet. I also think our next Sienna will be Blizzard Pearl.

    Then there's the in-betweeners.... like Cement. Looks flat in some lighting but is actually a metallic (pearlescent if you ask me)... and that's cool with me too.
