Lack of color choices... tired of the same ole same.

Toyota for all their deficiencies really does win the colors game most of the time. All the weird color TRD pro 4runners are sought after now.
You're right, and think of how sought after a Raptor R would be in one of those wild colors 10+ years from now.

You're not the only one. Been saying it for years. Ford really dropped the ball with colors after 2022. I would only be interested in rapid red from the current batch of colors.
I agree, Rapid Red for me too. It's just that I've had about 8-10 Rapid Red (Lucid Red, Ruby Red) trucks and I want something different.

just get white and be happy. it hides all the scratches. if my truck was any other color, it would be half white anyways from all the light scratches it has
I've had enough white trucks. With the black wheels they end up looking like a generic box of corn flakes.
You'll never get that image out of your head now, will you? lol

A bright yellow or purple R would sell like garbage and everyone would hate it...but yeah 10 years from now it would command a 10K dollar premium and everyone would want one. This is how it always works.

Totally with you on this point - very boring color choices but Ford marketing drives this. For me, I've held back on a R purchase simply because I love the Atlas blue on my 2022 that hasn't come back yet and just got tired of waiting!

You nailed it. I just returned from serving with a medical team in poverty-stricken areas of the Philippines. These are absolutely first world problems my friend...
I totally hear you on these colors!!! its not even like asking for a special color just more options that other models have. I seen a gt500 ion Britany blue it was nice would love to have that offered. I think they missed on other colors also. the green is to muddy should have been brighter and the anti matter blue only looks good in sunlight otherwise its black.

Have you all thought about primer, I mean Leadfoot. Them you can paint it what ever color you want.

Side not, mystic would be amazing on a Raptor.
