Nice looking combo! And make it 4. I have a lighbing blue GT350R and just ordered a Ruby F450. I wish velocity or even lighting blue was available but oh that ruby red .... it’s sweeeet!

So so excited to have a real truck to tow with instead of the inadequate white knuckle rides I’ve been dealing with for so many years!

First post here but have really appreciated surfing around the site while shopping for trucks.

But man, that Ruby Red keeps calling me. It's rich, and deep, not a shouty look-at-me red.

How does it wear for people, long term?

2018 Platinum F350 dually to be ordered soon...

One of the bad things about Ruby Red is that just like Shadow Black, scratches and swirl marks are easy to see.

Ruby Red doesn't seem to me to be exactly the same color as it was originally. My buddy's 2011 F150 looked awesome in that color. But the newer ones seem subtly different in color to me. I was all set to order this color but changed to Magnetic after I saw a couple of trucks in the new lot.

So, Not picking on your color. That's all so individual anyway. But does anyone else think the color has "morphed" somewhat?

I believe the 2011 color was Red Candy, not Ruby Red. So you're correct, they are different. Both beautiful, but different.

Probably the best red Ford has ever produced, but being a beautiful color brings one on every corner. My neighbor just bought one... ugg, so I’m hoping for an updated, more brighter blue in 2020.
