I’m totally working and not comparing/analyzing/reviewing full size trucks. Nope not me. Anyway onto the gold/blue dress challenge of 2020.
Is this truck purple or blue? Paint code is listed as Blue Ribbon.
For the intrepid

Very much so blue. Absolutely and definitively blue. Just about as definite as the color of my orange Cruze which is also not brown.

Odd lighting/processing, because Blue Ribbon is a wonderful dark blue color.

The exact word that came to mind.

That’s what a buddy said. Something about 4,000 Kelvin t emp lighting and Yamaha Blue having a similar effect .

I concur.

Technically that’s indigo.

That looks awesome in that lighting! Idk if you’re into leasing at all but Tundra’s have pretty awesome deals on them for the past couple months. We’re talking mid $200's for a great deal.

One of my coworkers has one in this color. In person it’s a really good looking blue.

This is one of those “in between” colours that changes how it looks depending on your screen as well as the lighting.
To me, it looks a bit more purple than blue.

Orange is actually just light brown with some blood added

Leasing isn’t my bag. Going to do a straight swap for my Tacoma. Well seriously contemplating swapping my mid- size for a full-size .

But if it’s a wagon people will proudly argue it’s brown.

Well it is actually the other way around because you can’t make brown using primary colors but you can make orange. Brown is just dark orange so an orange car looks brown in low light. Which is why my car isn’t brown but I still need to specify that when people see it in the shadows.
As for the blood part I heard the blood of enemies is the most effective for making vivid paint . Now if only I had some enemies on hand.

Hold on Mid-200's for a good trim level? Or the ultimate basic?

SR5. So not base base but not exactly loaded. Not every dealer is willing to play ball to get to these prices but if you work them a little it’s definitely achievable.
I do (or did, I guess) online advertising for CDJR dealers and it’s maddening how many people think we can just sell our trucks for that little when a dealer 40 miles away has Tundras for $280/mo.

You could always make some enemies. And there are numerous ways to do that:
1. Go into politics and be highly partisan.
2. Fuck a friend’s wife
3. Cheat on your own wife
4. Use a family member’s ID and take out some loans, preferably secured against their car or house, use the money for a fancy vacation and then stop making payments.
5. Go on a diesel truck forum and talk about how great Teslas are and how it’s just a matter of time before diesel is banned and how you’re looking forward to it.
6. Go on a Tesla Forum and talk about how hydrogen is the future and how Tesla is gonna go bankrupt
7. Use the N-word as often as possible in public.

And lots of people do one or more of those things every day. 1, 2, and 3 in particular go together like bread and butter. Maybe I can borrow someone else’s enemies because all of those sound stressful and self destructive.

I absolutely hate talking paint with my wife. No matter what color I say, she will disagree and claim it’s some other made up color.
Background of this page is white - no, it’s eggshell or some such.
If I said this color was blue or purple (no matter which I picked) she would scream and say I was wrong and this color is actually grape marmalade microwaved for 3.5 seconds color.
So I will say it’s grape marmalade microwaved for 3.5 seconds.
...
Officer knocks on the window - sir your registration says color of your vehicle is grape marmalade microwaved for 3.5 seconds, but I am seeing blue. Please step out of the vehicle

Toyota has some weird blues. The Spectra Blue Mica Tundras look straight up purple under certain lighting conditions, and completely dark blue in others.

Reminds me of Chevy’s “Blue Flash Metallic”
I still can’t make up my mind.

blue.
my old ‘97 JR Holden Vectra was of a colour like that.
pulled up to a supermarket one night, got out and a little girl said my car was purple. i corrected her in saying it was blue. then her mum told her it blue too.
