    I don’t agree. It just widens the resale distance. Someone will pay the same or more for the color if they like it.

    No regrets here and as some people experienced, I do get asked and complemented on the color of the truck.

    First of all I don t dislike inferno or any newer colors. I just think that some new colors are just for the younger crowds. The only newer color I absolutey hate is that neon green that jeep has for the renegade

    Inferno was my favorite color when I was looking. I wish it was a bit brighter , but still like it. When it was time to get my truck I just thought silver was the best color on this body style and always liked how the silver looks “liquidly.” If spruce mica was a current color I would have been all I’ve that!

    I got Inferno for the visibility. Back when I was a paramedic and I would be taking care of the bicyclists and motorcyclists that had been run over, the driver of the car involved always said 'I never saw them'. So when I am on the bicycle or motorcycle, I am wearing fluorescent neon green colors to increase my visibility, and the truck is the same principle.

    Zero regrets. The dash color bothered me a little on the configurator, but in real life it’s just fine.

    Love my color. Wouldn’t change to another if I could at this point. Cement or Cavalry Blue are nice.

    no regrets here, my wife had an orange corolla (which i loved the color of) for a few years before i decided i had to have the inferno tacoma, been a month, absolutely love it. As another member stated be prepared to be referred to as "the guy that drives the orange truck". I have been slowly switching the chrome for black accents, grille, emblems etc and it just keeps looking better IMO.

    It's probably the least popular color, so the least amount of people will want to buy that color, which means it will be harder to sell and affect the resale value. Not by a lot but it will make a difference.

    It seems to be a polarizing color. People seem to love it or hate it. Obviously I love it, coz i bought it. I haven’t tired of it. My wife has even warmed up to it with time. She admits it looks a lot cooler out in the desert than the boring colors.

    I saw one in person today. It’s a nice color but too much for my tastes.

    Inferno is my favorite color followed by BBP.

    Then I see a clean and polished BBP and it becomes BBP in first followed by Inferno.

    Then I see a clean Inferno and, well, the vicious cycle continues.

    Completely honest here. I got an inferno. I was wanting an 18 off road in manual transmission. It was like a unicorn. No one had one. Except one dealer had one in inferno. Never would have picked the color but I wanted the truck and didn’t want to build one. Took it home and the color grew on me. If the dealer came to me today and asked me to swap with a cement I would. Any other color and I would keep the inferno. I did like the quicksand but it is so popular now it is almost annoying.

    I still absolutely love the color after a month of ownership. I get complements all the time. I'm glad I went inferno over cement.

    No regrets here. 18 months, 78,000km and I still love it. Always get compliments on the colour. I have always owned black, white and silver vehicles so this was my first try at some colour and I am glad I chose inferno! If you it also hides light trail pin-stripes remarkablely well!
