Strange.. it seems more an more vehicles get a grey colour on their vehicles. Is this the new matt black on certain street tanks? Indeed there is nothing better than a nice fresh mousy toned grey or concrete .. will hide perfectly in the urban jungle.

If you mean my Porsche, it‘s „graphite blue“, the wrapping is stone chip protection

It appears quite "grey" to me in the picture you posted.

Was yesterday on Motorway / Autobahn 45 direction Olpe. ( One single construction zone.. once passed Gießen.. ) I noticed several vehicles in this shade. So kinda concrete like paint, greyish blue, real grey like old volkswagen beetle in both matt and shiny seems no fashionable. - The previous Porsche and Mercedes beasty matt black seems to have disappeared.
I am not opposing this colour. Just reasoning a fact I thought of it - too.. but that is also a rather "tactical" colour.


I also consider to wrap the Grenadier if I get it one day.. in a transparent foil as chip and scratch protection. (No colour change and also not something Real Tree or camouflage) A friend of mine wrapped his pick up in RealTree.. Not my cup of tea..

2016 Nissan Patrol SWB (4.8L in-line 6cyl) I think they're only available in our region these days however...shes noisy but can go anywhere, sadly due to be sold as she can't accommodate child seats, hence the IG upgrade...

Looks like the 12HP version with the wipers linked to the speedometer?
And the semi-automatic mechanical turn signal clock?

Nice combo!

Question on the IG - is that the factory tint on the 2nd row and cargo area windows?

2008 Toyota Tacoma 133k miles. Replaced the alternator, headlights and break lights. It is a great truck and I don't plan on selling. It is perfect for firewood and other dirty jobs. Sold my 1972 FJ40 when I retired and moved from SoCal to the PNW. Two best moves I ever made. (Retirement and move.)
