    So far, no regrets on selecting Quicksand. I’ve received many compliments on the truck in just a couple weeks of ownership.

    I have sky silver--reason for it.. as growing up I never saw a taco in any color other than light silver. So it's what I liked.

    I liked cement. Wife wanted white or Silver. Went with silver because it doesn’t show dirt or scratches as much. Also I think in the OR trim the silver looks really good with the black trim and black and silver rims. The rims just match the silver Best IMO. I liked white a lot too but both my buddies have white so it was off limits for me.

    I really think the Tacoma looks good in most all the colors. I wouldn’t let the color be a big deal to you in terms or regret. If it really bothers you maybe change some trim pieces up or get new wheels that might be more appealing to you. I would never trade a new truck in due to a color but that’s just me.

    what i really wanted was the cement but just couldn't afford a Sport model, every time I see a quicksand taco I do get a little regret not getting one but perfectly content with my MGM

    Love my MGM, but I'd get a Cement if I was buying today. Wasn't and option in '16 when I got mine.

    Blazing Blue Pearl here, love the color. When I'm out and about you hardly ever see such a nice blue on the road, most cars are darker greys/whites etc. White would probably be my second choice because of the contrast with the black trim and window tint.

    No regrets on Silver Sky Metallic. I think Tacomas look nice in most of the available colors, but silver stood out as my favorite so I got it.

    '80 was tan, '94 was black, '95.5 was white and my '15 is white. White is by far my favorite.

    I looked at a Cement Off-Road DCLB at the dealer last week. They've been hound me to "trade-up". Soooooo Tempting.

    I used to say my Gen 2 was colored "You're going to have me forever blue" because nobody liked it. When I bought my Gen 3, YGTHMF Blue sold in 15 minutes at an incredible price to boot.

    I went white on the Gen 3

    I went with black and am very happy, but I did think hard about cement. I just thought I would get tired of it eventually.

    But honestly, all colors look good in the Gen 3. The only one I probably wouldn’t like is silver.
