2 tone paint question

I'm ordering a 2011 F150 Lariat and I'm trying to get 2-tone paint (blue/silver) with the light color interior. Does anyone have this combo? And if you don't mind, how much extra for the paint? The dealer is trying to say it's not an option

I know I've seen factory 2 tone paint jobs on F150s but did they stop for 2011? If I'm gonna spend $40k, I want what I want!
Thanks.

I think on the Lariat you can only do pale adobe or solid colors.

XLT will allow silver two-tone.

If you try build and price on the fordvehicles website, you'll find in the dark blue you can get only the pale adobe with either the light or dark interior color.

I would basically build the truck you want and bring the print out into the dealer. If you've got to have silver, you'll have to have that painted on your own.

Welcome to FTE! Your post echoes many here. You spend a ton of money and you want what you want. You can have what you want, just not in a Lariat. However, you can load an XLT up like a Lariat and still get your preferred paint combo.
