Army Green thread: let’s keep it green!

Had to order mine in March. Arrived end of July. While I was waiting some guy in my neighborhood got an AG Sport, but I don't know what tranny. Only other one I've seen up close was a Trail (package for the SR5 in '21, I believe?) which only comes in auto.

 

For the '22 OR, green is one of only four colors (others are red, white, and MGM) that you can choose without adding $2300 worth of Audio / Navigation / Technology packages. I wonder if this means we'll see more of them when people don't want to pay $2300 extra for a different color?

I was torn between cement, green, and red when I went in to order mine on Tuesday. The dealer had a green '22 coming in October and I parked next to a green one in the parking lot that day, so the choice was easy. Thanks everyone for posting all these photos for me to drool over until mine arrives

 

Nothing major but I was clearing out the bed in preparation of an IKEA trip with the Mrs. this weekend and decided to go ahead and remove the front air dam. Pics tomorrow since the suns pretty low now if anyone is interested.

 

That a regular sport hood or?

 

Regular sport

 

Nice love to see another army green in central Florida

 

Just purchased from a Ford dealership “Used” One Month old 2021 TRD Off-Road 4x4. Some dude put tons of mods on it and traded it in for an F-350. Crazy!

 

Nice find and someone else’s loss. That Tacoma will be running years longer than the Ford

 

Photo bomb from earlier this month. Took the kiddo on a road trip in my “stocko”.

 

Pretty darn cool- one lucky kiddo!

 

Long time lurker, thanks for all the inspiration from this thread and many others!

 

Is that just tarp over the Softopper? Does the Softopper leak?

 

What side steps are those? They look a lot beefier than anything else I've seen.

 

Spotted another AG in the wild, while driving mine. We both gave each other a glance that made clear, "woah, another AG. . ."

 

Here's a link to them:

They seem pretty solid, but they do have quite a drop so a lift is almost necessary to make them not so awkward. Kind of a place holder for some good rock sliders for me right now.

 

Hello fellow AG brothers!

Is the third the charm?

So here the deal. The picture of the AG in my profile picture was an OR 4x4 that I bought back in Feb of this year but I sold it a couple of months later for a significant profit. It was a hard decision to sell but the profit was too good to let go and I really wanted to upgrade to a long bed.

Early August of this year, I placed a deposit on a new AG LB sport. Truck came in late August. I got a 3/1 lift and 33 BFG's with the TRD matte gray sema wheels (see picture below).

September 9th, truck was totaled (see picture below)! An impaired driver flew out of a private parking lot into oncoming traffic of a major road. I had not chance to respond and my truck was smashed! Luckily I had witnesses that assisted me on the scene. I can't recall much because I likely blacked out when all of my airbags deployed. I was taken to the hospital and the other driver was arrested. Long story short, the other driver has been charged for impaired driving and for providing false insurance information to the police. Yes, it appears the B..... was not insured. As for my injuries, I am still recovering from a broken left hand which really sucks because I am a gym rat and can't really do much lifting. The injury has also affected my typing and writing (at work).

I've been so busy at work and with all the insurance and legal issues associated with the accident that I haven't really had time to look for a replacement for my AG. I currently own another 21 White OR LB which is paid off but I've always had a second vehicle and really love the AG's. I have been debating to look around for a new 21 AG but at the same time I think it would be in my best interest to wait for the 22's. What are your thoughts? Is the third the charm?

 

Wow that really sucks but good thing you’re ok! I’d wait on 22s. It’s about that time anyway plus I’ve read where they have a few more bells and whistles this year, additional lift on some models if I remember correctly?

 

Damn man. There will always be other trucks. Glad you survived. Good,luck on the new one!!

 

Thanks, I agree. An Autonation dealer in the area is starting to show some 2022 in transit which makes me think this will be the case all around. Agree, its best to be patient and wait.
