    Thanks. Actually I should have been more specific - I was hoping for a side by side as in the same shot (same lighting, etc.) to see what the difference is.

    Wanted to see the difference in silver between the 2013 and upcoming 2014 Tacoma silver and don't have a dealer within a reasonable drive.

    But thanks again

    I have a picture of my trucks in the driveway. It shows a portion of the bed of my Tacoma and my Tundra behind it. Shows both colors well. I will see if I can post it up when I get home later. I personally prefer the silver sky as it is a darker and richer gray. But I have both so happy either way.

    ^^ I honestly think the Tacoma is more of a true silver. Where the Tundra is more of the gray color. IMHO

    I agree too. The Tundra looks gray next to the Tacoma.

    Sky seems to lighten up alot in the sun.....Sky is the color I will pick out if the gen. three has it on its color chart. Stealershit, Prolly will hold this color hostage, for all the money.

    I was at a local Toyota dealership and they had a Silver Sky sitting on the side of the road. I parked my Silver Streak next to it.

    Sky is a lot darker and has more of a cement colour to it. Reminds me of the Scion TC cement colour, it almost looks like a half matte paintjob. Silver Sky is a lot nicer IMO than my Silver Streak.

    Both trucks were on 32's. My short box has a 2" lift.

    My daughter has a 2007 Silver Streak Camry. I just bought a Silver Sky Tacoma. I like the Silver Streak but in person, I think the Silver Sky is a richer looking color. The picture below doesn't do a very good job of capturing the difference between the two. When the Sun comes out I'll try agains. BTW, so far the Tacoma is simply outstanding!

    Wife has the Silver Sky Sequoia, I have the Silver Streak Taco. The Sky has a bit more of a grayish look, and is a scosh darker than the Streak.
