    Not a big fan of Speedway blue or impulse red. Not to say that they are absolutely dreadful, though.

    There is no choice for the white? When I bought my truck I told the dealer anything but white or red. I absolutely hate those colors for vehicles.

    Aw nuts, I'm and old guy and I think they all look great. I love to see what some of the younger guys are doing with their mods.. nice trucks. I'm 66 and hoping this will be the last truck I ever have to buy.

    I wouldn't say any color is ugly. A DSM looks good with black accents. Plus it was the easiest color ever to keep clean.

    I traded a Magnetic Grey RAV4 for my Vivid Red taco. Several Toyota Dealers have told me that the Mag Grey is the most popular Toyota color across all lines of cars and trucks it's available on.
    Although, I'd have loved to see a Taco in Voodoo Blue, the FJ Color, or the bright Yellow they offered as well.:eek:
    Also, Concrete Grey, or Army Green...
    Howcum the FJ Cruisers get the exclusive colors anyway??:confused:

    I bought used. The Tacoma, around here, is hard to find. So, I was prepared to drive away in any color available.

    No vote here either. My first Toyota was a 77 FJ55 in white that had less than 20k on it. Even put on white wagon wheels, must have been the 70's :p

    FJ55_be39fd09ccd4c2477c7f1755246a954bd6a9bba5.jpg

    Most of my rigs since then have been white. After enough years of lifting, drive train vibration, excessive wear of steering components, and fighting with dealers over warranty you start to ease up on the lift thing and when I purchased my Taco a few weeks ago I wanted the Baja, did the test drive on a washboard dirt road half a mile from the dealer and was sold, at 50 mph and above smooth as silk with total positive control. Only color available was red so I grabbed it, they couldn't get rid of it and I got a great deal. Today I dropped off a few accessories to get powder coated:

    metal_zpsa9a8633b_c719bc0e7ea0af8b4972198c926667092100b15d.jpg

    There was a white TX Baja (didn't think they even made them in white) in the parking lot of the metal fab company, instant jealousy. I parked next to it and compared it to my Barcelona Red and was surprised to find that I liked mine better. Agree, there is no bad color IMO what ever you have as long as you like it is the best color. Don't be afraid to try something different.
