    Inferno was my second choice. We have 2 on the island and sometimes I wish I chose that instead of Quicksand. Reminds me of my 02 z28.

    If you have to ask, you either don’t love it or your concerned about what others might think.. in which case, don’t. Get something you’ll love and enjoy. In the end it’ll matter more as the years go by.

    This is my 4th white car (all a coincidence, I swear lol) but I really enjoyed how my truck looks in white. I’ve had so many friends/family nag about me buying another white car and have had others say white is too plain. In the end I’m driving it, paying for it, and enjoying it every single time I see it and drive it. Your 52! Live like you mean it and don’t bother with anyone’s opinion but yours (and the wife of course) lol.

    I did not buy it -so I may not be "qualified" to comment here. My opinion with it was --- worst color they offer-- sorry -you did ask. Too much . If you want to stand out -GET it . I was stuck on the Blue -got it. I initially liked the QS , but figured I would get tired of it.
    I wonder if Toyota has published any figures on the actual breakdown of the numbers of each color sold/manufactured??
    My guess is that white has been the biggest seller with second place going to ??????

    stock at this time, would like a quality suspension leveling lift, performance exhaust system, offroad tires, off road lights ect....
    I have had mine going on three years! I still love it, haven't done any mods to it yet to make it stand out, but people are always complimenting me on it! Its that thing about either you like the color or not.Just make sure your satisfied with your pick. The age thing doesn't come into play, unless you cant lift your body to get in it...lol...
    Thank you

    My neighbor got the Tundra in that color. On the net, it looked off and too boy-racer-ish. In person, I like it much better. It is a bit loud for me, but if you don't mind that, I think it's a great color. Reminds me of my first mountain bike which was almost the same color.

    I have the Blazing Blue, but i just installed the Borla Cat Back. Just as "loud".

    My only regret is not doing it sooner. At 48, it is my thing.

    You do you!!!!

    I bought an Inferno AC MT TRD off road because, except for the colour, it was exactly what I wanted both for work & personal use. I didn't like the colour then, but it grows on you. After two years it sort of looks red to me now. My advice FWIW, if you like the price and the truck, don't worry about the colour. It's only paint. Cheers!

    I actually didn’t get Inferno, so as not to be duplicative in my colors. But Inferno is way cool.

    Not a one. Wasn’t sure at first but really loving the color. Just so many white & gray they kind of blend in to the landscape. Mine is easy to pick out in a crowded parking lot. Only other color I would consider is the blue for the same reasons

    I had an inferno loaner and I liked it. It had matching interior trim. I didn't like that.

    I absolutely love my inferno. Especially in the sunlight when the hint of gold comes out from hiding. It’s my favorite Toyota paint color by far with Calvary blue being a close second. I go to school at OU. So my truck is UT colored but I don’t give a crap lol.

    Loved it, had the only one, now there is like 3 or 4 in town. Time to do some more mods :)

    but I REALLY want GREEN, a dark forest green.

    No regrets. I don't think I've ever gotten so many complements on a car color.
