Tundras live: Where Dumb Dad Jokes get you banned, Incorrect Opinions, and Relationship Advice.

You're up early...

 

I'm officially in that post menopausal, old guy stage where my sleep is all over the place.
I got lucky the last few nights and fell asleep/woke up at relatively normal hours.
6:15ish today.

 

humming bird just showed up and the feeder is empty.
I need to get it filled before I get a bad review.

 

Hey, Tyler , can I ask a bit of a favor? Can you share some daylight pics of the Cement Taco in various stages of cleanliness? Kinda asking for a photo dump. Like lots of pics. You can PM me if you are afraid of getting a spam ban.

I'm trying to gauge if I would prefer Cavalry Blue, Cement, or Celestial Silver if I get back in a Tundra. I'm familiar with how CB and Silver handle being dirty, but I rarely see Cement in person and I don't think I've ever seen it dirty.

 

I second the emotion for truck pics.

Also, Celestial Silver is awesome, and I always think it looks especially great on Tundras. When I decided to buy a Tundra, I was originally looking for a gently used CS truck with 40-60k. Then Covid hit, and it made more sense to spend a few grand more on a new one.

Bonus: CS seems to hide dirt and imperfections better than any of the flat primer-y colors like Cement, CB, or AG. IMO.

 

trucks should be white or a basic color and dirty.
not clean and the color of nail polish.

 

If Toyota's white paint wasn't prone to problems, I would not be opposed. Stormtrooper Tundras look great.

 

I don't like it any more than you do! There's lots of white ones out there that I just have to skip over because of it.

I do like their Windchill Pearl, but it's only on the platinum trim, I think. Not sure if it's also affected though.

 

Like voodoo blue?

 

I like the cavalry blue.
the voodoo blue gives me a migraine.

 

It’s a loud color for sure. I parked next to one in the Midwest while on a road trip. My dirty, no ceramic AG loaded to the gills for camping, next to a freshly detailed, $$$ coated VB with 0 offset wheels and an empty bed. Kinda funny. Opposite ends of the truck driver spectrum.

I thought VB was better in person than in pics. Still think it kinda looks like it just wants lots of attention.

 

Would.

 

My Tundra was Cavalry Blue.

 

I think those upgraded white paints (what are they called... uhhh... like moonlight express or something); anyhow, I think most of the ones w/pearl or metallic are exempt from those paint issues, right????

 

Thank you, Sir!

 

I put the voodoo blue in the same category as solar octane or whatever they're calling it these days... It's a vibrant color that looks sharp, but I'm not sure if I'd want to see it everyday

Lunar rock for example was a color that I wasn't opposed to, but would've taken one when it was crunch time (overall it was #3 on my list which went black, white, lunar).... but as I started seeing them frequently here, I really started liking the LR (not more than black of course) but it grew on me...

 

Huh. Your top 3 are my 3 absolutely will not buy deal breaker colors. And Quicksand. Hate that color.

 

Not all white paint peals. Just Toyota's and Chevy's.

 

Peal > a long loud sound or series of sounds, especially of laughter or thunder:

 

Not sure if I slipped or got autocorrected/spellchecked. Less than 5 hours sleep makes me thing I probably just messed up.

 

DAMN! Looked like an RC. Good pic!

 

Man, those clouds look divine. I'd love to have an overcast cool day.

On the track/race topic, you seem to attend a lot of them. Do you have a membership or something to get you a discount? You should be getting something for the loyal patronage.
