What say you? Pure white vs Avalanche grey for the 2017 Raptor?

[nick731]

I would go grey if I was gonna doctor it up like the Foutz race truck other wise im going with the white

Thats what i was initially thinking as well, i was actually hoping that might be part of the graphics package. needless to say the current graphic packages were very underwhelming lol.

Do you think if you told someone to make your raptor look exactly like the foutz truck that there would be any legal issues with that?

If people want to nitpick, the Ford logo for sure, and 'raptor' is probably trademarked/copyrighted. In a crime-free society, those would probably need to be licensed, but in reality, so few people would replicate that truck, it would go under the radar.

I saw the Avalanche Grey at the Philly car show and the Oxford White at the NY show. The grey really looks like a dark dirty white that needs cleaning. If I didn't see it for myself I probably would have picked it because I was hoping for the Orange and thought white would look too much like a construction pick up. After seeing the white, it really looks good with all the black (grills,wheels & stuff) and I added the graphics so it is not mistaken for a work truck. I suggest you go online and find the nearest dealer with a mustang in avalanche grey and take the drive to see for yourself.

Naw, its not a copyrighted setup.

I would love to do the magnetic, but I ordered white since I own a construction company and sometimes need to run to a job site in my truck. I also ordered a '17 F350 king ranch monochrome for my DD, but I'm sure I'll be driving the raptor to work too!!! Can't wait for this one....

You're the third person I've known who has seen the Avalanche in person and said the same, exact thing. Apparently, in person it looks much more like "dirty" white/light tan/very pale "yellow" than any form of gray. At least, thata what those who've seen it in person say.

I found these pics online, and they certainly lend merit to that opinion. Not saying I don't like it. I do, and it's my second choice. I just wouldn't expect it to be gray.

Hi, bud. Two questions. First, got pics of the orange you mentioned? Secondly, are you related to the Vogelgesang family in the heating industry? Thanks in advance!
