    I wanted the blue but my wife's Corolla is almost the same color so I went with the White.

    None of the colors are ugly, I just see way to many silver tacos. it seems like thats a base color... Im happy with super white :) Barcelona Red is also another color id love.

    +1. Silver Streak looks good but so many Tacos here are that color. Toyota should have changed the silver for 2012+.

    See....since there has already been a poll this probably won't work, let me explain. The guys in speedway blue are runner up in this poll as is, so it would only be logical for every single one of the to vote for desert sand mica just to try to get further away from 2nd place. The hell with what this poll is about my color has the most votes, #1 in my book. :D

    It took me six months to find my truck. I wanted a new truck and I didn't want any other color, but Speedway Blue.

    ^^^Agreed, picked red but just because it seems to be a bad luck color for crashes...at least for cars.

    I have to say the new Spruce Mica (or whatever that new green is, with the 2012s) it's hideous. Looks like toxic waste. Timerbland Mica was beautiful, looked like a nice outdoorsy color. This just looks like slime.

    I have the Timberland Mica and it looks great! All kinds of comments on how good it looks. Can't get it this year though, only Spruce Mica.
