Who knows? just wondering a reason why....I'm not a big fan of either. I like most colors, but sick of seeing white, or silver. They seem the most accident prone to...maybe because of just their numbers? It's the same with these newer gen4 Tacomas. So far I've seen one white, and 2 black ones on the roads here, nothing else. Even the new tundras...mostly white, or silver in dealer lots.
