    I think all the colors are great, But what I don't understand is how a color can make a vehicle go faster!! as it has been widely reported (and Toyota research shows) that the "Silver Streak Mica" is a little faster. Doc

    I'm feeling pretty smug that Pyrite Mica didn't even make the list of ugliest colors. :)

    I've done so many mods to this truck it turned out to be a Dodge Ram 2500! WOW was that expensive!!
    I like my Silver color which isn't listed here. Guess they don't use that color anymore. The reason I like my Silver is because it hides dirt very well. So I can go between washings longer that the brighter and darker colors.

    I was just so happy that one can finally buy a truck that isn't flat white, black, or red. I luv the pearlized colors they offered, even the grey. When I got my Speedway Blue (I call it Miller Lite Blue), it was the only one around and really stood out. Now it's just another bright blue truck on the road. Even the Dodge is close in color.

    My first truck was an late 60's Ford that was a stock turquoise blue, if you can remember what that looked like. That was followed by a 74 Polar White Ford SWB that I had for over ten years, and then a White 90 Ford Ranger (POS) I had for a few years. From there it was babies and 4-door sedans. Now I got my truck back and am happy to have it stand out a little from the crowd. I'm old enough to not give a @#$% what others think:)

    Not trying to offend anyone with this color, but personally, I don't like Desert Sand. It looks kinda plain, unless it has mods on it.

    Well i guess that the Indigo Blue Pearl is one of the "ugliest" and rarest. I discovered the "rarety" of this color when they stopped offering it for 2010.
