    Black was a decision I made thinking i’d only keep the truck for a few years. But now that i’m thinking about keeping it (especially if the 4th gen has no MT) i kind of wish i had done a silver, MGM, or cement. Oh well

    Actually blue pearl wasn't my top choice (it was my wife's turn to pick the color so that's how we ended up with it). After a year, I must admit, I've come to like it.1206180747_HDR.jpg

    Screenshot_20191021-045330_Gallery.jpg as soon as I saw the BR I knew I was gonna buy it! I love the color, second is army green, which wasn't out when I bought this. Voodoo blue is nice, but im not sure if I could live with something that bright.

    I have zero regrets with Cement. I let it go 30 or so days no wash and I could barely tell. Awesome. I had a Pearl White WRX Limited. I thought white would be better than my last deep blue car........

    I really like all the colors except the orangy red.

    I love my black Taco, but it's just so damn hard to keep clean. Looks tight AF when spruced up properly. If I had it to do over again, I'd be MGM all the way.

    I went in thinking I would purchase a super white Tacoma (living in the Southwest its almost a must) but they didn't have one in stock so I took a chance with a Silver Sky Metallic TRD OR and really like it a lot. It's a little more difficult to keep clean and I just need to be mindful of the paint over time but I like the look. I wasn't sure about the silver, black, and red accents but once I get my Pro Sema wheels on I think it will complete the exterior until I want a new rear bumper, headlights, and lift down the road. The only real drawback is that it tends to be hotter in the summer than a white vehicle but I think that can be mitigated with window tint.

    Had a 2nd Gen Silver Mica and loved it, found it so so easy to keep clean. I have an MGM 18’ this time around, much harder to keep clean but I love it much more. Looks great with the black wheels and emblems.

    I wish I wasn't a 28 year old with high blood pressure. If I didn't have high blood pressure then I could have bought a black Tacoma.

    Top color choices when I was looking for a Pro were Cement and Calvary Blue. I liked the added safety features for the 2018 and couldn't find a manual Calvary Blue remotely close to me.

    Ended up "settling" on the white, but it has grown on me. White has never really been a go to color for me and it doesn't pop the same way when it's clean but long term should hold up well (even if it is a single stage paint job). In the end it was always MT > color preference.

    I bought the 19 in black. Every time i see a Cement on the streets I wonder if I should have gone that route.

    Just put a deposit on a 2020 OR in magnetic grey, and already second guessing it... Cement looks good, silver looks good.... but I dunno. I'm sure when it eventually arrives, I'll like the grey just fine.

    I love the MGM color on the Tacoma. I think it’s the best color for the truck so I don’t regret it. I do however regret getting Nautical Blue for my wife’s 4runner. Hardest color I ever had to try to keep clean and I have had a matte black vehicle. You look at the blue the wrong way and bam it’s dirty.6731AAA4-7DE6-47D6-B9B3-EC4E222D32DA.jpgF1311F80-BEE7-4490-B215-21A7E865712C.jpg

    I had a Nautic Blue car. You are EXACTLY right.

    Too funny. My 2014 WRX Limited was Pearl White. It was decent but little micro bits of iron would stick and make ugly. Responded well to clay.
