    They limit you to white, silver, gray, black, and red. But you can get AC 4WD 2.7 in Spruce if you get an automatic! :confused:

    This is in the Missouri/Kansas area.

    Spruce Mica blows anyway. Stick with white.

    Absolutely best color, you have exactly what I want to build, but can't. :mad:

    The black flares make the Spruce look even better.

    Build thread coming soon!
    You know what owners of white trucks never hear? "Wow... that's a nice color."

    You sound like you have more choices than I did when I was looking at 2.7 4X4 reg. cabs with a stick. Black, white, and Magnetic gray are all that were available in 2011 in my area. I went with MGM...

    If you're looking for a '13, dealers can no longer special-order them. They are taking orders for build out only.
    Dealers could begin fleet orders on the '14s last week.

    White looks great in pics, but when I went to the local dealer, the dark colors looked better with Spruce the clear winner!

    Same thing now, even fewer choices for the reg cab stick, in fact I tried a reg cab stick build with the Missouri zip code and as I recall, those are the same three colors available for 2013.

    More than one dealer has said different in the last few days. Maybe they can make changes to trucks on the assembly line? They did say that there were major changes to the Tundra for '14, but the Tacoma stays as is

    Out here in the boonies all trucks have scratches and hail damage, and neither can be seen through all the mud and dirt.

    Spruce looked best of available colors, but there are others I would prefer, like Olive Drab.
