    I like all the colors. I think with the right lift, tires, etc. Any color can look really good, think about a desert mica (Military theme). Most likely would come out looking like a nice truck

    The gold and silver vehicles (not just tacomas, but everything) always seem to blend in with everything around them. But, there is always someone who will take those silver and gold tacomas and make em look badass.

    Never thought id have a speedway blue, but, I cant tell you how many compliments i get on it :)

    I love my SWB, but as others have said, I have had girls say it's a "pretty" color. Makes me cringe. Maybe blacking everything else out will help eliminate the "pretty" effect, I'm in the process of doing that.

    "It's a TRUCK, don't you DARE call it pretty again. B*tch." lol

    How about white? Nothing against the color white per se but on trucks it reminds me of what the sanitary district and pest control guys are driving. Gotta have some chrome to spice it up.

    My thoughts exactly. Stock Desert Mica isn't that good looking, but lifted, with blacked out wheels, etc and you've got yourself a baby HMMWV! ;)

    No way, PM looks great! I'm glad that it's not that popular, don't see too many on the road, but I get a lot of compliments (and don't see anyone reaching for the barf bag ;))

    Supercharger, OME lift w/ LR UCAs, running boards, toolbox, extinguisher mount, skidplate, N-Fab light bar, 40" R.I. LED bar, WO seat covers, TRD intake, Weathertech mats and visors, stubby antenna, hood struts, LED interior lighting, Hella Supertones, and other stuff I'm forgetting.
    I don't like silver on any vehicle. Looks unfinished, like they forgot the paint and went straight to clear coat.
    Normally I think white is pretty bland, but with some black accessories the contrast looks pretty good. I'm glad I got white because I am a safety officer for huge construction sites and now I blend in with all the other company rigs... I used to roll a big lifted jeep and I stood out like a sore thumb; couldn't catch anybody in the act!!

    cant go wrong with super white. I'm glad I didn't go with silver like I wanted at first. White is classic, and doesn't show dirt very much
