First time buyer, thoughts on this deal?

Go find someone else to lecture cupcake. He actually said he doesn't love Atlas Blue, not doesn't like. He also asked owners of Atlas Blue if they got tired of it. And, no, I'm not tired of it, but I am tired of people who like to lecture anyone who shares their opinion. Again something the OP asked. So go find someone who cares what you think. Here ya go Frogger, have another triggering pic or two! By the way, did I mention I love my Atlas Blue? LOL

Ha I wasn’t even coming at you cupcake

Would seeing it in your driveway give you the blues?

I like the color now, just can't decide if in 3 months I grow tired of it

A couple more to help you decide (show off my Atlas Blue)! Then again, shades of black and white are coming back...lol.

Thanks for the pics, truck looks great!

@IronJay Here's a pic of an Atlas Blue 22 without the 37PP or the decals.

Got a confirmation for '22 Atlas Blue with 21k miles, 37" package, Recaro's, loaded up for $65.5k. Title is clean. Problem is, I don't love the Atlas Blue. Now, I don't hate but I really wanted an Avalanche, White, or Azure Grey. Problem is those trucks with the same options and miles seem to be about $7k+ higher. Owners of the Atlas Blue, did you get tired of it?

I get you. I am a magnet for black vehicles, to the tune of 8 out of 20. I still have 3 ; one Raptor, one Mustang Dark Horse, one Kawa ZX14. Like you, the deals are usually better - I got my Dark Horse for almost 5k off MSRP when most were paying over by the same amount. She was just a tick more expensive than my ’17 Raptor, but MSRP’d higher. I get wanting Avalanche, it’s a good color you don’t see all the time with the side benefit that the rock chips in the hood don’t show up as bad ;-)

Last 2 times out, I did not want a black vehicle. Not enough to completely rule them out, but enough to see one, keep shopping until I rule out the rest. That’s what I did with the Dark Horse.

Even when she’s filthy from 3 months of no rain, constant dust & covered with pollen, I don’t get the least bid discouraged about my garage content.

I guess it comes down to whether you’re stoked about getting a Rap or you have to have all the things aligned for you to enjoy it. For me, that’s not an issue, but for some people they _must_ have the color they want. I completely understand this, they’re dropping as much money or more than me, so they’re entitled to decide if the color is a deciding factor. If you like the truck do it. But if the color makes that much of a difference to you, then keep your powder dry.

Good luck !

TLDR:

Black is the fastest color

Dirty black is better than no black
