    Hey I have Desert Sand Mica and this thread makes me glad I chose the DSM. Obviously it is a fairly rare color. Makes it more unique.

    Glad to see I'm not alone with this color in a Tacoma... seems I see plenty of other cars with it. Do you have any pics you can share with us?

    It appears that copper metallic was the shortest lived color on a Toyota truck. A close match is availble on the scions though today. I found that the solid red color option is not available on 09 reg cabs for some wierd reason. It is available on the access and dbl cabs though. Silver Metallic is in my opinion, the hardest color to match when it comes to body repairs.
    I chose super white for several reasons when I bought my 09 reg cab 4x4. Its cleaner, doesnt show scratches that easy and it matches my Tundra and Honda Rubicon.

    Nice 6spd,V6, very solid truck
    None currently, but I would like a better sounding exhaust and perhaps a cold air pack and some color coded step bars
    I choose the Radiant Red, while almost any red is labeled "arrest me red". I might had choose the Speedway Blue if that had been available , it would have been tough.
    My neighbor, who got a new truck last year got Mica Sand, he did not care what color it was, just that it had the options he wanted.

    grivera. Don't have any pic's as of yet but I did manage to score a new set of the limited edition FJ Trail Team edition matted black wheels from a dealer in South Carolina. I'll have them installed as soon as I get my lift. Should look very similar to this but without the roof rack, bed cover and with black GoRhino set bars.

    Looks real good if I do say so myself.

    That's why I was curious; it looks nothin' like what I've seen. I always thought things like that were in a standard location.
