    Red is my least favourite color, then green imho. White is simple the best, no matter how you upgrade, stormtrooper style, chrome, stock etc. :p

    Just not a fan of red period I guess nothing againt your truck. To me the only thing that should be painted red is a Ferrari. But that's a personal thing hell I won't wear a red shirt either. Red paint also dies out faster than other colors due to the pigments used in the paint.

    No matter the circumstance, I end up with "Gold" vehicles. The price is always where I want it to be on them, free or other wise. My preference is a dark vehicle, but we all know, money talks.

    I really like earth tones, and so the Desert Sand Mica and Spruce Mica were my two top colors when I was searching. I ended up with Spruce Mica, but would have gone either way happily.

    Bright colors such as the bright blue and reds just aren't my thing. I spend a lot of time in the north woods and like a vehicle that blends in, but I completely understand those that like to buy those colors. Toyota has done really well with all of their paint jobs on the Tacomas, I just wish they would have used a bit thicker clear coat to extend the longevity of the paint.

    I would have gone with white, but my crazy wife purchased an Iceburg FJ.... So that left me with Silver and Blue... I went with SWB, sometimes I regret it but the further from stock it gets the better it is.

    My least favorite color would be grandpa gold....
