    Anyone know if Radiant Red will be an option for the 2016's? The Tundra is still available in Radiant red. Barcelona Red looks like the color my grandma would buy on her oldsmobile. I would like to find out who is picking the colors they showcase. Electric blue, desert tan and inferno orange.....WHY! That combined with Chrome....

    They do because I saw a test mule disguised with superwhite peeking out all around.
    That's all I need to know about color choices.

    Why all the hate on Barcelona Red? I'm not sixty and I like it. But then again, I am told I act like an old man quite often so that might have something to do with it.

    Now get off my damn lawn!

    I come from a family that buys nothing but red vehicles. So I grew up with True red. Not metallic or orange based etc...true red. My Dad had a '94 Toyota Truck(pre '96 they were just called trucks) and a '96 tacoma. It's not that I don't like Barcelona Red...it just wouldn't be my first choice of a red truck. I was actually going to buy a 2015 in Barcelona but then discovered all of the updates with the 2016's and am waiting. I would take Barcelona over Inferno everyday of the week. I just feel like a true red like radiant red should be offered.

    Was there a paint code?
    Maybe being Super White is not PC anymore?

    The new Tundra is available in Radiant Red. So its not too far of a stretch to think it might come back. Ill tell you why I like radiant red. Its the same shade of red on the lamborghini diablo I had as a kid. It looks classy and sporty.

    as I posted in the original thread.....

    I see some inconsistencies with that pic.

    1. shows the new blue color but the footnotes shows blue ribbon which is the 2013-2015 blue color.
    2. interior colors show 4 different colors, but the footnotes only shows 2 that are not even on the list.
    3. option codes don't even look right like except for the Limited (FE, TC)

    Pretty sure that black tacoma is a photoshopped image from another thread in this forum.
