    I take exception with your survey.
    I have "blue" but it isn't "old", it's Base model MFD screen blue.
    Only the Touring models have fewer choices :D

    Blue is OK and Orange is just OK. My son likes the orange, so he is always changing it.

    I WANT MORE COLOR CHOICES

    I like the orange but my wife likes the green so we compromised and put it in green.

    I rotate my screen color monthly. I am concerned about burn in, so I change it every month. I don't know if it matters or not, but I do it anyway.

    I like to customize things, especially when it comes to software. I had to go back to the default green color in my '06 though because I just am not a fan of the orange. Maybe in honor of Hallowe'en this year I'll set it to orange for a month ;)

    I really wish I could just drop in my own graphics and choice of interfaces though. I'll have to give Toyota a call and see if they'll give me the source code!

    I like the idea of a seasonal switch. I think I'll do that this year - switch to the orange display for the month of October. It'll be a new Halloween tradition! I agree about the graphics - too bad they can't be adjusted as well. Instead of little green cars we could have a 'bat' or 'pumpkin' option. Hell, maybe Toyota could offer a special seasonal MFD theme for each month of the year...

    I'll go with Evan. That looks about right. Black background at night though.
