    :yes:

    MGM would be my second choice though, it would have been Black, but they got rid of the Black Sand Pearl color option.

    good point on the repair part.
    I currently own a Red 2011 taco, but want to trade in for a 2015 model.

    black is available right now... but the MGM would be special order and ships on mid dec


    ....also saw the black has black carpet and black center console.... wasn't aware of that until today.

    I have a huge spot on my door where the paint doesnt match because the silver streak metalic fades and is impossible to get to match. Every other car or truck i have had was black, never had this issue till now.
