It's Bronze Fire. It's the same new color available on the Super Duty.

Hate that window design, looks terrible and out if place...as far as tundra rear...none of those problens ever happened to mine, worked great looked great but them again I actually owned two. I like full (tundra) or current look/set up.

Toyota has had this design on 4runners stretching back to the 90s, maybe the 80s...all that bitching and moaning about it in this thread must not be affecting their owners who are fantastically happy with the longevity, reliability and capability of their vehicles.

I'm not liking the 2015 rear window design at all. The portion of the window that opens is too small, and maybe it's just me but it looks like a porthole on a boat.

I've seen quite a few Tundras around town with that full window down, it makes me quite jelly. I also think the "oversized" read power window in the Titan is pretty cool.

I'm not so crazy about the little whole in the middle of the window theory of sliding glass rear window................

I agree that I thought it looked a little on the small side as well. Odd that they went to all this work to redesign it, and then made it so tiny......

Exhaust gases getting in? Are you serious? Even if physics could be defied and the exhaust gases came from the tailpipe toward the front of the truck into the rear window while driving forward, couldn't it still get in the side windows while down?

So true! I guess all Jeep Wrangler owners will soon be dead unless they keep the top on....
