    In certain lights it does look red. Others it's very orange. I love it.

    Depends on the vehicle...

    The Tacoma Pros that I've seen in person look great. The Tundra Pro that I saw it on; not so much...

    I've seen it on the Tundra, Taco, and Sequoia and it was fine. The 4Runner doesn't look right in it, though. They had one at the dealership when I picked up my truck, and it just didn't work for me. Perhaps if it had black fender flares to break it up a little? I think this about lots of the 4Runner Pro colors, though.

    Looks (including vehicle color) are subjective and personal. Choose what you like, don't choose what you don't like.

    Very simple.

    You'll definitely be seen on the road.

    I like it with the black interior. The red interior and orange exterior looks awful to me, but to each their own.

    There is a TRD Pro Tundy in that color in a driveway down the street from me and I LOVE IT, I am so jelly!! I don't think it's a color that would look good with any chrome though...

    I have thought about trading with them one night, without their permission of course, especially since they won't even hear the roar of the V8, only I will...

    I'm slightly confused. Solar octane isn't available on anything but the Pro right now, so no chrome, and it's also not on any V8s. :confused: My sleepy brain might just be dumb, and not following properly, though.

    Solar octane is available on 2024 models besides the TRD Pro and I was making a dig at the fact that the "V8 ROAR" is fake and plays through the speakers on the newer Tundras... Please have some coffee :thumbsup:

    I follow now! Definitely agree that chrome wouldn't go well with SO. I do miss coffee.
