    There are a ton of pictures in this thread alone of MGM, Super White, Silver Streak and Nautical Blue 2012's.

    If you are wanting a lighter color than black, I would not recommend MGM as it is just about as dark, and I imagine almost as hard to keep looking good.

    My 2011 is the first silver vehicle I have ever owned, and I love it. Really helps with my retentiveness when it comes to my truck. I don't find nearly as many imperfections in it which is nice.

    It's also MUCH cooler on those hot Florida days. :D

    Fink -

    I've found some of them, just looking for some more is all. The ones I've seen seem to all be from the same few owners. I know it's down to MGM and SW. There are too many Silver Streaks around here, and I'm not real big on silver... I'm not necessarily looking for it to be easier to keep clean either. Just something a little different.

    Thanks for your input though.

    My only point was, MGM is MGM. Super White is Super White. Ya know?

    servco does not like mainland cars.

    A few years back there was a west coast company shipping tundras to Hawaii below servco's price. I guess servco's got some clout because it the dealer suddenly stopped and said he could no longer ship them if he wanted to keep his business.

    They wanted the truck in their shop to make sure the kit was the same as the 11's. I don't know what the answer is, but it think it was the same. So they lifted it and did the tires and rims...

    Now I gotta wait another 3 weeks to see it in person :)

    I will give more detailed info when the truck arrives here. I think Fabtech may do a photo shoot, but i don't know if they are going to do that as of yet....

    I like the chrome wheels. It says, take your wife to dinner. My wife likes dates. While the rest of it says, I am a truck.
