Army Green is now a Standard Color !@#$
 
Is anyone else bothered by the fact that Toyota is offering AG as a standard 4runner color in 2021?

I get White and Black, but AG should have been treated like any other special edition Pro color; i.e. Quicksand, Inferno, VooDoo Blue, etc. There are a large number of people who paid up for a 2020 Pro because they liked the AG color and believed that would be the only way to get that color.


Does anyone think this will impact the resale value of their 2020 AG Pro? I'm thinking it will.

Either way, I love mine, but this is frustrating. Bad Move Toyota!

Army Green is only available on the 2021 Trail Edition, it's still an incredibly rare color. I don't think I saw a single one on Auto Trader leading up to my purchase in February.

if you paid $10k extra to have a green TRD, you got played. If you thought Toyota was going to keep the colors rare for your benefit, you played yourself.

No, I'm not bothered. I don't have a big enough stick up my butt to be bothered by someone else having the same color I do, even if they had an easier time of getting said color than I did.

you should protest and burn your 4runner outside the dealer. :director:

If this is your biggest concern in the past year, I think you’re doing well.

Anytime I see a 4Runner in the same color as mine I think “damn, they have some good taste”. When I see one in another color I think “damn, I should have gone with that color”.

Lol. Ya. They did the same with cement. And added lunar. 🤷

No extra charge here- these guys just give it away for free.

Correct. Same with cement. Only 1000 of each color were made

I see Rav4s everyday that seem to share the same colors as the Pro.

I wasn't going to say it, but +1.

What did you buy your rig for? Resale value? Enjoy your rig and move on.
I literally could care less what my truck is worth, that would prevent me from doing fun things to it like drilling into it.

It's a tool not a savings bond.

aweaver65 04-10-2021 07:23 PM

Wow!
 
Tough crowd.

As I said, I love mine either way.

And as I pointed out, I don't understand why it wasn't treated like Quicksand, VooDoo Blue, or Inferno. That's all.

And yeah, I did just fine in 2020, I paid cash for mine and don't plan on selling it any time soon.

They are only in the business of selling vehicles. Perhaps the only reason QS, Voodoo, and Inferno has been kept away is because those colors werent as popular?

This really isn't that big of a deal to me as an AG Pro owner. One sold on Cars and Bids yesterday for like $56k and had 7100 miles on it. That's more than I paid for mine.

Prices are nuts. You'll be fine in the long run
