    Hello everyone,

    New member in Lexington, KY area. There are so many amazing looking trucks on this site and it was a very valuable resource during my search for a truck. Your expertise is much appreciated. I bought a really clean 2014 TRD OR Spruce Mica on 11/26 with just 31,000 miles. The frame is in great shape as this truck has seen very little if any salt. I had a Toyota 4x4 all through college back in the early 90s, but have been in a Camry ever since. I am thrilled to be a truck owner again. I saw the Spruce Mica thread on here and had to have one. After a few months, I was lucky enough to find one less than an hour from my house at a dealer. Here are a couple quick pics.

    Awesome find. I think it's my favorite tacoma color. I found my 2015 with 25k on the clock last year. Wish it was that color though. Nice gem you got there.

    Sharp! Welcome to TW! I really dig the retro color. There was a time when dark green metallic was on every other Chevelle, Mustang, various Mopars, etc. It was very popular, kinda like the silvers & grays of present times.

    The wheels were on it when I bought it, but I agree bronze wheels would look great. I plan on selling the Fuel wheels. I have seen some really nice sets in the bronze wheels thread.

    I actually passed on the truck when I first saw it on the dealer site because the rocker panels and all badges were camouflage. It still looked nice, but was not my thing. A week or so later they had removed all the camo. I assumed it had been used as a hunting truck and would be scratched up. It turns out the previous owner liked that look, but was not a hunter and the truck barely has a scratch on it, so go figure.
