Army Green is now a Standard Color !@#$

[Saker]

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.

Maybe next year the Quicksand, VooDoo Blue, or Inferno may be an offering in all models!
Doesn’t bother me in the least!

You could buy a loaded ORP and get a vey high end custom paint job or wrap for much less than they upsell the pro (which is an ORP with different shocks). You got played if you did it for the color.

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.

Don't we have a guy on here who did exactly that?
Crazy...

I'm bothered by it. Because when it's time to replace mine, there will be that many more out there that I can't buy. Because I think it's a hideous color on the T4R.

4Runners are everywhere in my city but I’d be lucky to spot TRD variants (off-road/ pro) on most days. Throw these rare colors in the mix and it’s almost never.

In the past few years, I’ve seen:
Inferno: 2
Sand: 3
Cement: 5
Calvary: 2
Voodoo: 1
Army: 2
Lunar: 0

If you want to be rare, stay away from social media, forums and car meets.

I chose a ubiquitous color to avoid the law and draw less attention when we travel to places where the “hills have eyes”.

Tacomas on the other hand? None of these colors are sacred.

I walked onto the Toyota lot, salesman wandered up to assist. Told him I was wanting to check out the 4runners.
First question he asked, "what color?".
Color of my vehicles is unimportant to me, as long as it's not something garish.
Ruled out the new ones as they have the warning sensors.
All the used on the lot were SR5s. So I picked a 17 with 20k miles, lift, custom wheels and 285s.
The pristine Midnight Metallic Black got scratched on the way home.
Coming from a 68 F100 (DD for 35 years), the 4runner is a rolling bell & whistle.

When I bought my 4Runner last month the Stealership told it was an $8K upcharge for AG, so I went with MGM, I passed by 2 other Toy dealers yesterday and they both had AG - one a Trail the other a Pro, they told me nobody wants that color! Both were listed under MSRP!

AG color

I have seen 2 in the last week, near me....unless i saw the same one twice. Great color. The miata was over sticker, that should tell you never pay over sticker, its a truck.

Quicksand

Honestly, if they still made Quicksand, I would 100% have gone with that. I didn't actually buy it for the color (not completely anyway), I "like" the AG color, but I still wish it was Quicksand...

In any event, still a super cool ride.

MGM is a great choice. I like the AG color but I can see it being too dark for people. And I'll never get a 4Runner marked up. Great vehicle but if you're willing to drop that type of coin, just go buy a used Seqouia/LC. I'd consider trading my current Trail for an AG TRDOF if the price is/was right.

 

[blackened_offroad]

he didn't get played, he knowingly paid $10k extra for a green TRD pro and he got it. you seem pretty hot and bothered about what another guy decided to do with his own money

toyota keeps the TRD colors unique and rare for their own benefit, it just so happens that it's a mutual benefit to owners too







OP this is what you should focus on. AG is only available on a cosmetic model trim this year (you can't even get it with a rear diff lock). if you're thinking of this car as an investment then chances are the 2021 trail edition in army green will probably never be seen as an alternative

I don't think you know what "hot and bothered" means.

i don't think i want to play dictionary with you :noidea:

I have better things to be concerned about than what color Toyota uses.

And yet, here you are, commenting in a thread about what color Toyota uses.

I've always wanted a 4Runner, but it never seemed to either fit my needs at the time or I just couldn't afford one. I saw a grey one on a car hauler headed to a local Toyota deal back in October 2020. Dropped into the dealer the next day to have a look. It was a 2021 Trail in Cement. I called a buddy of mine who is the sales manager at a different Toyota dealer and asked if he had one of these coming in, and he said he had two. I told him to put my name on one of them.

Two weeks later the Cement Trail came in, as did one on Army Green. I thought the AG was just way to much green, but loved the Cement.

Honestly if I had not seen the 4Runner in Cement I would not have bought it. I did look at an ORP in the Lunar Rock, but didn't like it nearly as much as the Cement. Since I don't do an real off roading and ORP would have been overkill. I got my trail for invoice plus a $1500 rebate so was pretty happy with the price.
