2019 Ruby Red Platinum Ordered Today

Pulled the trigger on a 2019 Platinum CC SB Powerstroke today. Hoping for August/September delivery. Went with Ruby Red with black interior. Plan to put 6" BDS suspension in with 37" Toyos on American Force wheels as my first mod.

Congrats! I’m sure it’ll be difficult waiting for it to arrive. You going with polished, black, or two-toned wheels? Black would look outstanding on that color IMO. The lift and tire size will make for a nice look. I’d love to run 37’s but I tow fairly heavy every day so wouldn’t be in my best interest.

I'm leaning towards polished but haven't made up my mind. I have black Fuel wheels on my 2012 Raptor and I'm not happy with the durability of them. Live in NJ which doesn't help due to winter and road conditions. Good news with black is that I can repaint them myself. I've seen some really nice looking Ruby Red Super Duties with polished wheels on You Tube. If I went with black, I'd probably black out rear lights and stainless trim on tailgate which looks nice as well.

that’s one thing I like about black wheels is it’s easy to hide the scuff marks. Seems like on polished they just really jump out at you.

the raptors are wicked trucks. My brother in law has one and he beats the crap out of it ramping RR tracks, hwy overpass ramps and everything else. He just tries to destroy that thing! He said it’s the fastest raptor in the US and I believe him.

Congrats, that's going to be a super nice looking rig with the mods you have planned for it. Hell, they look great without the mods. Hope your wait is short as possible.

I think that is incorrect. I was going to order and it was going to be a '19. I don't have the patience for that so I found one to my liking in another state and went and got it.

Congrats! You're going to love it. I was down to the choice between Ruby and Magnetic myself.

I've been bugging my Autonation guy for weeks and he hasn't found anything - not sure if he is properly motivated or just can't find a fully loaded Platinum 350 with my specs.

I don't know where you guys are, but the big dealers here in NC (Crossroads and Capital) usually have a pretty decent selection. That being said, I did order mine from Crossroads.
