Thank you. It does get thumbs up frequently while out and about. It still functions as a light duty work truck.

I didn't paint this one.. I'm not sure what the exact color it is.. Everyone seems to come up with a different opinion. It's tough to match though..

But this color is currently my top bid for my truck... once I figure out just exactly what it is. Wish you could just buy paint chip samples, lol.

Stephen,
Abby would look awesome with that paint on it! I have a nice red on our 2009 F250 but I don't think that is what I have. ( have to check) Thanks guys for the follow up.
My wife just got a 2016 Edge with the bronze fire color, nice too.
John is mango the color on your very sharp panel?
Regards,
Chris

Yeah I think we might have a winner.

I've unknowingly seen it in person, and went, "That be a great red!"
I'm annoyingly particular when it comes to the right shade, lol.

The red on my old Yamaha FZ1 was a beautiful red too, but when it needs a base coat and the top coat and base coat are $200 a quart for some unknown reason, that's not going to work out.

A quick search shows '11 being the first year for the Ruby Red. I like a good Torch red, and yet...
