If we're voting. Leadfoot Gray and Twister Orange.
Mystichrome would be awesome, but I doubt we'll see that
ever offered on any truck, and probably never again on a Ford
vehicle. There were a number of complexities associated with
this paint, but definitely a great color.

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.

Most things are possible with enough $$$

Am I the only one who is sick and tired of the same old drab colors? Grey, gray, silver, black, white and the rest of the same ole boring same. It's going to be a meme for this era.
I just went to order a new "R" and ended up walking out the door after looking at the color chart. I told my dealer to call me when they get some interesting colors. He said that they're getting more and more customers saying the same thing and hoping Ford will do something soon. Guys, we're paying 6 figures for these trucks, is this is all Ford can offer? It's just paint. And NO, I don't want to wallpaper (wrap) a truck that's this expensive. Just wondering,,, am I the only one?
I cant remember EVER, and someone can correct me if I'm wrong...that Ford used a color without a "Metallic" tag that ended up being a Metallic color.

Leadfoot, and Avalanche were both great options in the Raptor. WildGreen is a non-metallic color in the Expedition, Oxford White has always been non-metallic...and when "Shelter Green" came out in the F150 Raptor...I and many others assumed it was a NON METALLIC color.
This assumption was reinforced by the Ranger Raptor and Bronco Raptor getting a color called "Shelter Green Metallic" and sure as shit...it's the exact same as "Shelter Green". I even went so far as to get Ford customer service to confirm it would be Non-Metallic when we placed the order. I wish I would have taken screen shots of our chat.

Now the Ranger Raptor gets the Marsh Grey, (non metallic) as it should be....and the F150 gets Marsh Grey (not the Raptor yet)...but you can't even get it in a sport package...you can only get it with chrome bumpers. What kind of morons does Ford have working in their color department these days?

For christ sake, virtually ALL major brands have some kind of Grey, Tan and Green NON METALLIC color option...Except Ford and Ram, and Ford decided to drop any "flashy" color on the Raptor completely?

No Performance Blue? No Code Orange? No Race Red? no type of yellow? and 25s dont even get Avalanche anymore.

I think
