    I’m on my 4th Tundra and the newest one I just bought is a TRD Limited and for some reason the paint seems to scratch so easily i literally see new small ones daily granted this is my First Black Truck all my others have Been Silver or Cement is this common in Black Trucks in General or is the tundra paint not as resistant to wear and tear on this model all my other trucks never had this issue any help or feedback would be great thanks again

    Welcome from TX!

    Yep, black is a bitch. Hard to keep clean and you'll see every paint imperfection/anomaly.

    I had a black 2014 CM. Never again.

    Welcome and greetings from Minnesota. Any of the dark colors, especially black are high maintenance and show all the scratches that were not visible with your old silver truck.

    Yes I’m trying to find a good wax/polish product to give it a good buffering to remove some of them just don’t want to kill the finish in the original paint any suggestions
