    Beautiful truck! It’s not my choice of color for having to mostly keep my truck outside. But yours looks awesome! That thing is GLOWING! Congrats!

    Oh look, another mod....
    Install seat jackers as SOON as you get it. I'm almost 6' 3" and had discomfort when first driving my truck. I didn't get enough thigh/hip support. My truck is my daily driver and most of the time I'm commuting to work (30 mins + one way). I used to have numb or sore legs because of that, but after I installed seat jackers...no more problems!

    They're easy to install and work great. Plus, they didn't change the headroom that I have (really that I don't have), because the bottom of the seat isn't raised at all when you install them.

    I have to admit, I like this color more and more as I look at the pictures of it. I know it's a color-changing color. In some lights, it's redish, in others it's pink-ish, but in bright sun, it's BRIGHT orange with a pearl flake to it. I've started secretly shopping for one (and found one). But I don't need a new truck! Or do I?

    I really like that color.

    Its not my style, but i really like it.

    It looks even better in person than it does in photographs.

    THAT is magnificent! When the sun hits that paint right the flake in that color is simply phenomenal - when I saw the color in person on a 4runner, it was considerably more overcast weather than you have there. I didn't get nearly the same effect as your pics show there, but it still looked amazing under clouds. Sooooo...how's all your wash and detail supplies looking? :D

    Looks awesome. The more pics I see the happier I am that I ordered one. Now I just need to wait and see if and when it comes in.

    I have the tundra in Solar Octane and after having a Tacoma in inferno I love the Solar Octane just as much. It pops at any time, night or day. B35FB630-0E6A-4919-9414-70717FCAD5AC.jpg

    The first Tacoma I test drove back in 2016 when shopping for my truck was Inferno. I already have an orange Camaro, so I opted for MGM instead.

    When the sun or light hits the metallics just right it looks great to me. The rest of the time it looks like neon tomato soup. :notsure: At least you'll never forget where you've parked. :pumpkin:

    Very cool. I’m curious what that color will look like in person. I just got my 22 Pro (white) in manual as well. It’s the only way to go. Coming from a supercharged 2nd gen (FOR SALE) it’s certainly a dog. It went right in for a regear and soon a retune. Then the truck will be happy.

    Nice! Having had both, how would you describe the differences between Solar Octane and Inferno Orange? It's an unending comparison, but nobody chiming in has had both or seen them side by side.

    Once the sun stops hitting inferno, it loses it's luster.
