    It’s the only color that looks decent with chrome in my opinion.

    Never thought I would like "brown" on a truck, although years ago I nearly bought a new Tundra in Pyrite Mica. I went between silver, supersonic red, and MGM until I saw a Smoked Mesquite Tundra. TRUST ME you are going to love the way you look. Someone's SM Limited had come in while I was wandering the lot. It looks better in person than I had imagined. The added benefit to Smoked Mesquite is it is a rare color. I like to be different. Enjoy it when you get it. I'm still waiting.

    I still can't believe how good your truck looks with the black window trim. It really makes a big difference. One question, did you intentionally take a picture of your Smoked Mesquite with the UPS truck in the background? :monocle:

    Curt,
    Which bed cover do you have on your truck? IMO the low profile covers are the way to go. Did you do the spray in bedliner or stick with composite?

    There is NO doubt it's the best color! Honestly, I'm shocked there aren't more of them...never seen another one on the road.

    I agree it is the best of them all. I have only seen one sitting at my dealership. I think the soon to be owner drove by as I was checking out the interior. The awkward pause when we made eye contact said it all. It's not my fault they didn't lock it. On the road I am sure I have seen all colors with the exception of Solar Octane and Smoked Mesquite.

    It is my favorite color as well. Love it with the Saddle Tan interior.

    I would have loved the Saddle tan interior, but just couldn’t wait any longer and snagged a Limited…which came in today!!!! Love the color in person.

    I love the color, just didn’t see many when I was looking other that black, white, blue… I had Barcelona Red in my 4Runner, and when I saw Supersonic I jumped on it!

    I picked up my Limited CM TRD in Mesquite today. It was the first time I saw the color up close. I love it. Looks amazing in the sun. I agree the door handles should be body colored.

    Thanks! To answer your question, No, didn’t even notice that the UPS truck was there. I just wanted to take a snap of the truck. :) I really like the color on how it changes from different angles and when the sun hits it.

    Sure, although I won’t be able to actually take delivery until Wed. My interior is the black Softex.

    Different strokes for different folks. I LOVE the Brown. On the flip side I can't stand the Lunar Rock or Army Green as every Southern Californian flip flop bro is rocking one of those two colors.

    The only thing that kept me from the TRD Pro is that it didn't come in a badass color like Smoked Mesquite Brown!

    I’ll admit, I really wanted Blueprint or MGM, but I’m very happy with Mesquite.

    I had a chance to buy an Army Green SR5 with TRD Premium package at MSRP back in March, arguably one of the best value setups, but I just didn’t love the color.

    I am really loving the brown. It does look good with some chrome pop. But think the 1794 has a little too much. Never thought I would buy a brown truck but it has quickly become one of my favorites with the saddle tan interior. Added new wheels, tires, and westcott level.

    Going to modify grille to black Trd grill, color match handles, replace window trim, and wrap mirrors. Keeping chrome mustache and 1794 side door trim and that's all of the chrome.

    I just got word today that my Smoked Mesquite 1794 is 70 days out :fingerscrossed: I don’t know why I’m happy about another 2.5 month wait but I’ll take it. Now maybe my wife will stop complaining about the parts that keep showing up for it.

    My Mesquite is 30 days out. I wonder if anyone is going to put chrome wheels on to match the chrome trims.

    It’s a sexy color with the black accents. Definitely not a color that we see around here often.
