    Hey guys- I can't decide on color and thought I would throw it out here to see what you all think. I have narrowed it down to either Cement or Cavalry Blue. I am going for the limited with premium and TRD package. I am not a big fan of the chrome so that will be one of the first things to go. The cement already has the TRD Pro Grill surround that I can order but the Cav Blue one isn't out yet. They both look awesome but I'm just not sure which to pull the trigger on. Any thoughts? :annoyed:

    They both are unique colors. Really can’t go wrong with either one. IMO

    A little of this and a little of that.
    I’d go Cement if it were me but that’s just my .02

    Which do you like better is the important thing you have access to both currently. I picked mine from what was available made it easier. I had to go platinum so..

    Idk, cement is kinda blah as far as pretty paint goes, I'd go quicksand if you were picking one of those flat colors. I'd pick the blue outta your two, it's a pretty paint and pops like crazy with a good buff. my .02

    edit: oooooh cavalry blue. i think they're both poop then

    It definitely seems like cement is more available. I will likely go with that color but there is something about that blue that makes my head turn. [​IMG]

    If the cement doesn't make your head turn, like the blue does, get the blue.

    Get the blue for sure then...sounds like you like it just a little more. I saw one here in Vegas a few weeks ago and it looked amazing.

    Turn which way, towards it or away from it? Haha. I’d personally get Cement because I prefer more subtle colors on my vehicles, but I agree the blue is a nice color

    Go cememt! Blacked out would look sick! Plus the dirt and impurfections will show up more on the blue. Love the blue color but not for my truck.

    Cavalry blue is intriguing, but I think you'll be happier longer term with cement.

    Cement. That blue, while speeding, will possibly make you stick out of the herd to the cops.

    Cement...although I am biased. It hides dirt (see pollen) rather well, and looks clean even when it isn't if that makes sense. It also has a metallic flake that really comes out in the sunshine.

    No way I could drive around in a Turquoise colored truck. Way too much attention. My dad had a very similar colored '79 Mercury Capri. We all hated the color 5 years later.

    Agree. I've seen some Tacos and 4R in that color and looks pretty bad ass. If you do that on a Tundra, better black out a lot of the blue or it could get overwhelming.
