Black is the best color for the first five minutes after you wash and wax it.

Nothing beats it. Absolutely beautiful.

But after that first five minutes, it starts looking dingy.

White is hard to beat. It's easy for the other drivers to see, especially at dusk/dark and dawn. Looks good when you spit-shine it and doesn't look like a homeless person lives in it after it gets a little dirty.

The Grays are hard to see on the road. The Lithium doesn't show the ugly streaks down the side like other colors do.

But if all I had to do was to keep my truck pretty? Black. No doubt about it.

 

White Platinum is my favorite as it`s also the color of my 2016 Lariat.

 

I went with White Platinum with Camel interior on my '17 Lariat. Those were my favs but the Lithium grey had me thinking. I do like black but it would drive me crazy trying to keep it clean!

 

I`m also partial to Magnetic but you`re right on point regarding black.

Been there done that on three cars in my past and never again will I have another black vehicle.

Tuxedo Black is a much classier and better looking shade of black than Shadow Black and I really don`t understand why Ford dropped it.

 

White Gold/Caribou FX4 King Ranch

 

Back in 1988,I had a ford bronco...absolutely beautiful the first 5 mins after waxing.... I said never again....switched to silver...hides dust well always cleans up nice

 

I liked my 2006 super duty so much I kept it!...... the silver still looks new

 

Bronze Fire for me...

 

Lightning Blue

 

love my new bronze fire xlt.

 

That Bronze Fire is gorgeous but I'm partial to my White Gold over Brunello.

 

Ditto....

 

White Gold...


My new 2017 F150 SCREW Lariat... 5.0, 4x4

 

Nice truck. I like the white gold. One thing I wish Ford would get right. The wheel well moldings....... None of them match the paint color very well.

 

While I do like some of the other colors better, I keep going back to some form of white. I told myself Ruby Red this time, and they didn't have any on the lot...Must have been a sign.

My last 3 SCREWS were oxford/Platinum/ and Platinum. I have had Blacks, Greys, Browns,and blues, but 4 things bring me back to white:

I cannot park in the garage at home. It sits outside.

I have parked in an employee garage every day at work for 30 years, and door dings are inevitable.

I do not like washing weekly any more. In my old age, If I wash
bi-weekly or monthly, I am doing good LOL

When I trade in my white trucks, they almost always look brand new and I get top dollar on trade in, even when 7-10 years old.
