"wow that truly is darker then any Ford brochure"
Actually, I believe if you look at the color guide in the back of the actual brochure: 2018 Super Duty Brochure the color is quite accurate. However, the Magma Red color shown on the Ford website when you "build your own" is horribly off, much redder/burgundy than actual....

I got MR. It's darker when out of the sun, but it is nowhere near black. Just dark. Get it close to a black car and it is quite obvious. I like the MR and it works for me since I was coming out of a Gem Green F-150, which has the same affect under lighting conditions. Very dark out of the direct light and brilliant in the light.

Anyway I went to a dealership today to look for myself. Yep again. WOW what a difference. Got them to give it a quick wash and put it in the sun. There is the colour. I guess it will make a great conversation. Kinda growin on me. I guess.

Barbaro.....It has too much "red" in it to be Root Beer....the old 2011 "Brown" was more Root Beer....which is what Root Beer is....Brown. I do want to see one of these in person just to see how it changes in the light. Curious to see the "purple" shade....LOL

I just looked at a F-250 today. Definitely root beer colour in certain light and angles. Only in bright light and certain angles do you get the purplish hues. Looks “codiak”/ black in shade or overcast skies.

Now that I've seen more of it, I'd say closer to Birch Beer than Root Beer on a bright sunny day, or maybe a mix of the two sodas. But Magma is definitely a sky-dependent color. Cloudy day, it could be anywhere from black to dark brown to dark burgundy.
