    What's up TW? First post here about my first Tacoma. Had the truck for about 2 and a half months. Quickly found this forum and have been lurking ever since.

    I'm pretty damn happy with the truck so far. The point of this post is: Is Cement the easiest color to keep clean?

    I've owed a lot of vehicles with a wide range of factory colors. This Tacoma hides pollen and dust better than any other color vehicle I've owned. I feel like I have to get right on top of it to see that it's dirty.

    I have a short commute to work and can go a long time between washes I feel like. Curious about other 3rd Gen colors staying clean. 22825.jpg 22825.jpg 22824.jpg 22827.jpg

    MGM is not too bad. But that's comparing it to my previous black vehicles. I imagine cement and quicksand being a little easier to keep clean looking.

    Quicksand by far. It’s the color of our dirt roads where I live.

    Cement is a awesome color but I didn’t wash my quicksand all winter up until last weekend. Only thing I noticed was it was shiny again.

    I'll agree my cement was super easy to clean and maintain, however it seems to be the most popular color now, there is at least 6 of them here on base, that I could not live with.

    I see a lot of Tacoma’s around me and most colors are represented well. I enjoy seeing cements driving around. Dam good looking color on this truck. I really enjoy seeing the greens and the inferno also.

    I think Quicksand has Cement beat but not by much, I owned the original Quicksand by Toyota:

    I was torn between this and cavalry blue. I think I made the right choice.

    Technically speaking, champagne generally is the easiest color to keep clean; it hides dirt the best, followed by beige and silver.

    In Tacoma’s color palette, Quicksand and Silver should be the easiest colors to keep clean.

    I have the Cement and it is very easy to keep clean. I have owned many colors of trucks over the years and this one tops them all for looking clean.
