    The ladies like, yes. that they do. I have always dug this blue color on Beemers and audis, but never really felt like it belonged on a truck. Now that I have one with it, I am a believer.

    I was gonna say silver...but the silver isn't ugly, it's just that everybody and their dog has a silver vehicle.
    I got Timberland Mica because...1: I'm not a conformist and 2: It was the only Tacoma like I wanted in the state. LOL

    I like the color though. Wasn't so sure on the computer generated Toyota website pics, but in person it's really nice looking I think.

    When I bought my SWB (deal came along), I always told people my truck color was 'You're gonna have me forever blue' but actually it has more personality than the other colors. In the end, I like it more than any other color. That's the truth.

    future plan of 2" drop and any type of rim thats not a steelie. grille and BHLM mods, maybe....

    me too, i REFUSE to buy a red truck. had a Red Civic for the wife but it was a great deal and sold it for 4 times what i paid!!!

    i LOVE my grey but also hate it. it scratches SOOOOOOOOOOO easily but color is easy to match and blend. I scratched the passengerside bed side, the part that sticks out just alittle more then the rest of the truck....just a scratch but easily fixed and had my brother (owns the shop) paint the after market grille surround too :)

    only color i dont like is that sand color and the beige interior. i dont like the grey interior either but what can you do.....dirties to easy...

    I'll drive any color Tacoma except the Gold and Speedway blue. Found a couple good deals on Speedway Blue when I was looking for my truck. But the color is kinda girly to me. So I had to pass. Gold, well my mom and grandma would drive a gold vehicle, so I never gave gold the time of day.

    idk why speedway blue is so haaated.. I love the color of my truck, i don't think toyota could've picked a better blue. All the other makers have too dark a blue for my taste, i don't like the navy blue's soo much. That's ironic too bc i'm in the navy lol
