    Gorgeous truck! My kids liked this color best out of all of them. I was on the fence and went with Army Green at the last minute.

    I put Smoked Mesquite in the same color "class" as Blueprint.
    They're both understated and classy. When they're clean and in the sun, (see Raven67 pic above) that metallic just glows and they are beautiful colors.

    I swore my next truck would be white, I've had many colors but not white. Well, then Smoked Mesquite showed up & i had to have that color. Absolutely love it, but it is hard to keep clean.

    My truck would have been a Mesquite if they had one in town when I was shopping. No luck so it turned out to be MGM. Last two were Black and then Blue - nice colors but the black was a PIA to keep the paint from getting swirls and the blue was not bad. The MGM cleans up like ice, but still I love the Mesquite.

    I agree Mesquite is the BEST color IMO.

    It depends on what you are smoking.
    Alder for salmon
    Apple or hickory for pork
    Cherry is great for rock fish or cod
    Mesquite is awesome for jerky

    I think because most people make a correlation with Mesquite as being "old man brown". I dig the color, personally, but I can understand how others don't care for it.

    Smart kid. It's easily my second or third favorite color in the Tundra

    1.) Lunar Rock (I am biased)
    2 & 3.) toss up between Smoked Mesquite & Terra

    Now, I am very interested in the new Mudbath. I haven't seen it in person yet, but I feel like that one is going to take the cake for me.

    None at this point.
    Not at all if you use it sparingly.
    Living in Texas it's a very popular wood to use.
    Our weekend place is covered with it.
    But it'll tear the shit out of a chain saw blade!!!

    I love the Mesquite, the color I really wanted, but ended up with Mag Gray. I am good with the M G but still like to see you all with Mesquite!
