Ruby Red Color Difference
This is a question for all the 2015 Ruby Red owners out there. Does your Ruby Red truck look different from other Ruby Red Ford vehicles ( Escape, Taurus, Mustang, etc. ). I have 2 coats of wax on mine and it really shines. My work friends were all out in our lot looking at my new truck and noticed that the paint looks different from other Ruby Red vehicles on our lot ( Ford Motor, Beech Daly Tech Center ). We think that it could be the primer they use because its aluminum. Either way I love it. Does anyone out there have any ideas?

It's going to be interesting to see how close the RR paint on my fiberglass cap is going to match the truck. Also if the third brake light on it will mess up the trailer towing system making it think I have a trailer behind me all the time.

Put a coat of Turtle Wax Ice on it. Makes it look like the old Candy Apple Red from when I was a kid. I love this color. Thank you for buying American, Thank you for buying Ford.

I haven't driven it much as I just sit here on the porch and look at it all the time.

RM, I do the same thing out my upstairs bedroom window. I see that you have the Ford spray in liner. Isnt that just the cats ***. Well worth the money I think. Plus it goes great with the Ruby ( Candy Apple ) Red.

So far I like the liner except not happy about the strip on the tail gate where they didn't put any.. The big test will come once I have the cap on and my wife on hands and knees climbs in there to pack everything for a trip to the cottage. I'm worried her knees are going to come out all bloody..

RM, Yeah that stuff is like sand paper. You better make sure she has jeans on when you pack. Wheres your cabin ( cottage ) at? Mine is in Saint Helen Exit 222. Houghton-Higgens Lake area. Maybe I will see another Ruby Red 2015 up there this Memorial Day weekend. Bruce

My cottage is just down the road (M55) from you in East Tawas area. Saint Helen used to be really neat,, I remember at one time everyone having nice Artisan fountains but I think they used up all the water as last time I was there I didn't see any. I have sailed my little Sun Flower sail boat in the lake.
