    Interesting. Not shocked at the results. I live in a hot place (SoCal) and keeping the vehicle cool is priority #1, so SuperWhite was both my pick and what I bought.

    Other places, other days, other times, I'd have bought black, but the upkeep is so ridiculous to keep it looking good it's really not worth the hassle. A nice military green would be cool. (not the spruce mica, not that good looking).

    My wife would have paid for my truck herself if it came in purple, but I'm not driving a fucking purple truck even if it was free.

    im torn between the

    speedway blue-spruce mica-radiant red colors as my favorite
    mgm is close
    white is what i have, never been a fan but they dont make the two colors i want anymore and the spruce was hard to find. so i settled for the truck not the color

    You must have gotten a SMOKING deal to let them sell you a GREEN one:eek:


    jk, jk. That is a very unique looking truck and the black rims really set it off, but green! Whats next, 1970's Cadillac brown? lol

    Black if I owned a car wash or had somebody to clean it for me twice a week. Last (only) Tacoma was a 04 DC black with tan interior and I LOVED that combo. I must be the only one who likes tan interior, though. It's sure hard to find in stock.

    they make the olive drab color in derp..

    YOU CAN DO IT!!

    its a heck of a lot cheaper than a vynal wrap and it way easy to touch up if you damage it.

    BTW, according to the Toyota website...

    In Canada it's not called "SUPER WHITE" !!!

    It's called Alpine White. :cool: Which is what I bought, but voted for the "fire-engine" RADIANT RED no longer available.

    Right :) I just figured they changed the name or changed the pigment like they have with practical y every color. Now I see Canada. . Makes sense :) your name is better anyway. Superwhite sounds like a dodge color

    Yea and if you have an hvlp gun you can do it yourself and have the whole thing done for a couple hundred bucks.

    I really looked into vynal wraps. They are cool but thsy cost so much that I might as well get real paint.

    2012 Spruce Mica DC SR5 TRD Offroad
    Dad looked at a 14 Silver Sky at the dealer the other day and ended up liking the Spruce Mica best. So he got the 2014 Spruce Mica DC TRD Offroad with TRD Exhaust, Running Boards, etc.... They done a couple updates on the interior but not alot from our 2012 we had.
