    Traded my 12 fj cruiser for 18 taco off-road with tech/Prem with extras. Not my color choice but I think I got a great deal on it. Pic was before detail ADDE0578-4481-453C-A359-259BC3DD5B9D.jpg

    I wasn’t a fan of black at first either, but it has really grown on me, now I wouldn’t want any other color.

    Black was the color of my first ever vehicle (95 Toyota 4x4 pre-Tacoma). I loved washing it and seeing how clean and shiny I could get it. Now I'm old and lazy and don't want to wash my truck more than twice a year so black is out. Your truck brings back memories though!

    Wanted black way back when but I like the easy upkeep with white. That said if you can keep up with cleaning/polishing then nothing beats black.
