    OK guys I am going to go look at trucks and can’t decide on color. The three I have narrowed it down to are white, quicksand, and cement. I will get the OR with tech package and want to know which color you guys would prefer.

    Thanks guys

    A few additions to make me feel cool.
    Get the cement just to aggravate the Pro guys that "had to get the pro" to get it. Plus I do like that color.

    Cement looks decent. QS looks ok as well. White is the classic Toyota truck color. Between these 3, I would go white.

    Quicksand wasn't even on my radar. Now that I've seen all the ones on here with black accent's it grew on me like no other color has. Cement looks great too. I'm not a fan of Toyotas white and lack of 2nd step clear. My wife's rav4 is super white and it's definitely more maintenance. Even had a bug stain it yellow. Was only on for maybe a couple days before it happened. I spent hours trying to get it to come out. Never was able to.

    If you live out west, definitely Quicksand. Cement is awesome too. I’d never own a white vehicle ever again...or black lol.

    Silver has got to be one of the best colors for looking clean even when it’s a little dirty.

    The Cement color is real nice, changes color slightly in different lite conditions. It has a metallic sparkle to it, very subtle.

    No question. Without a doubt the cleanest looking from 10 feet away no matter how long it's been since washed. And you can take it through car washes without looking at swirl's all over it.

    Here is my take on the color issue.

    Silver sky metallic is the second best color of all the choices, especially if you de-badge and remove the decals.

    Quicksand is the absolute best color, but if you have to ask, you aren't ready to own the best.

    Seriously, you can't go wrong with the white.

    Haven't seen the cement in person, so won't comment on that choice.

    Just get the one you like, and enjoy!

    I love my inferno, but quicksand was definitely my first choice, and it's what I'd recommend.

    All 3rd gen owners should be required to debadge before leaving the dealership, while waiting on financing. The chrome badges on these trucks are hideous and in random spots.

    That's very funny.....

    If anyone told me I would be "debadging" a vehicle I owned, I would have told them they were a couple of cards short of a full deck.........and then I joined TW.

    My Quicksand blond truck looks much better without the chrome plastic "bling"though.....lol

    I bought Barcelona Red, but I vote Quicksand. If I could go back I would've purchased Quicksand.

    Funny, if I could go back I would have ended up with Barcelona Red!
