Exterior Colors

Hi Everyone - I am new to the forum. I presently have my original 1999 red F-250 and am looking for some input from everyone on the two reds offered (race red & ruby red) in the new Super duties! Appreciate your thoughts along with real life pictures as well!

The Ruby Red is by far the more attractive color. If you haven't looked at Bronze Fire, check it out. It changes colors in different lights.

I'm going white myself. It's a practicality thing.

Between the two the Ruby Red wins hands down. Was in my top 3 colors choices but ultimately stayed with white but went from my current Oxford white to White Platinum. I would have gone RR had my wifes minivan not been almost the same color

Ruby Red seems to be a Ford home run so far. It looks good on everything...from F450s to the GT350 Mustang.

RR is *sexy*. If I wasn't going WP, it or BF would be my choice.

Everytime I see this picture I think of Jennings Anderson Ford. I drove way over there one time in my life to buy a new 6.0 King Ranch when they were first launched. May not be the place, but it looks like it. Nice truck!

Agreed, while Ruby Red is not a color I would choose it doesn't bother me. Race Red is too orange like a half ripe tomato, its kind of annoying to look at. I tried to talk myself into a Race Red Raptor a few years back, couldn't get past the color.

Ruby red for shure! Although bronze fire is what we have now, like the color change in different shades of light.

I had regular red on my last truck and liked it but could not get Magnetic under Race Red so I went with Ruby Red and Magnetic and glad I did. Here are a couple pictures. Has not been sunny that much on a nice day to get picture clean in the sun. Looks awesome in the sunlight!

If going red RR is the only way IMHO. White gets the Platinum tri-metallic white.
